Its tough living out here in Hawaii and being a Bob's Bartendress

Modeling the sunset

Doing a little Anna Dance at the top

Was I photo shopped in on this one?


Every once in a while you are allowed to show off what you got
Well I've been bad at keeping up with the things I've been doing, but the last two weeks Eric had leave from the Marines so we were able to hang out a lot and do different things. Mary also had off so we got to do some awesome hikes and drink.
Let's do a recap of my week.
Monday - Ran to triangle park with Mary and did 12 minutes of Insanity, Bartended til 6, came home and had dinner with Mary and Nate
Tuesday - Drove to the Leeward side of the island with Eric to Ka'ena Point so we could catch the sunset.  Missed the bulk of the sunset, but got to see awesome Albatross birds.  Camped right on the ocean on a very hard surface.
Wednesday - Woke up early so I could get back in time to shower before work.  Bartended til 6 and then went out to eat at the Shack with Eric.  DELICIOUS burgers.  We ended up getting yogurt icecream with all you can fill up on toppings from YOgurt MAMA afterwards, and then finishing our night up on the beach listening to the waves and the wind.  My bed is so comfy
Thursday - Hiked Kuliouou with Mary which was a 5 mile round trip to the top of a mountain after climbing some rigorous stairs and a dangerous cliff at the top.  Then we got our Great Aloha Run shirts, and I bought some cute dresses for work.  They are not my normal beachy dresses though, more of "I want to make tips" dresses.  I think I did something that night, but for the life of me I can't remember
Friday - Woke up early with Mary and walked the beach for an hour.  We wore our matching "In training" Great Aloha Run shirts.  I put on one of my favorite dresses (the one from the consignment shop in Colorado) with grey tights and my new black and blue asics and went to work.  I clocked in at 10:48 a.m. and clocked out at 10:52.  Long ass day.  As soon as I got off work I pounded a few beers and then Eric dropped me off at home on his motorcycle.
Saturday - woke up in time to join Mary, Keysa, and Ananda for a hike of Olomana.  We made it up to the first peak, and then continued on to the second peak.  I don't have very many pictures of it, but be sure to check my facebook for the album and what has been tagged of me by other people.  We didn't hike to the third peak because it is pretty dangerous and scary, and we were tired.

There was this guy who was high out of his mind, or tripping on something who kept asking us if we were going to hike to the third peak.  It was hilarious because we lost count of how many times he asked us the exact same question.  I got some good quality time with Keysa while we were hiking.  She is super nice and awesome.  We are going to go surfing this Tuesday morning and then she is going to teach me how to cook paleo!  Ananda and I ran down the mountain together and all the way to the car.  It was nice to run with someone who goes my pace! We made it all the way to the car and it felt super great.  I didn't complain at all the whole hike!
We ate at Teddy's Bigger Burgers and I ordered a huge thick milk shake.  I must have drank it too fast because I got super sick and barely made it to the bathroom at home.  I fell asleep for a few hours after that.  Mary finally convinced me to wake up and that no, I had not missed New Years.  Most of you that know me know that I am a truly evil person after I wake up from a nap, so really this was progress that I got up and was able to get dressed.  We went to Keysa's house and drank our faces off.  Then Ananda and I went to town so that Ananda and I could dance with as many boys as possible. Both missions were perfectly executed and accomplished.
Sunday - Oh thats today! I finally pried myself offline at 1:30, so Eric could pick me up.  We went to the Lanikai Beach which is not really too much of a beach on the far south end, so we walked the shallow water until we found a much beachier spot.  That I was in heaven for.  Quiet, walking through the water, just thinking to yourself about whatever you want.  Then we hiked the pillboxes for sunset.  That was fun.  We didn't really get a good sunset because it was so cloudy, but thats ok!

And p.s. I started the 30 day paleo challenge for realz today.  Only Meat, Eggs, Cashews, Veggies, Fruit, and Coconut water for me!
