For some reason, I feel like I have a million things going on today, when I'm pretty sure that I don't! But either way, here are my link-ups so that I'm not wasting my day away blogging!


1. What’s your favorite kind of donut?
I like just plain old glazed donuts, or twisty donuts, or donut holes. Mike's Bakery in Nanakuli always makes 'ono (delicious) donuts. I also like donuts from Napoleon's Bakery.  
2. Do you use the snooze button?
I'll usually just hit it once and if I'm still snoozing by the time my alarm goes off again, I just turn it off. I enjoy living this flexible sleep life of a college student :)
3. Do you write in cursive, print, or a combination of the two?
My handwriting is a combination of the two.
4. Tell us a joke.
It's a local Hawaii joke, so not everyone may get it, but it's the only jokes I know...
Da Hawaiian, Filipino and Podagee was stuck on the top floor of a burning building. When the fire department arrives, they immediately hold out a safety net for the victims to jump down on. So da' Hawaiian and da' Filipino go for it and jump to safety.
But da' Podagee refuses to jump. The fire crew yells up to him, "sir please get over your fears and jump or we can't help you!". Da Podagee yells back, "No way brah! I not going jump until you put da' net down on da' ground first!".

5. How many languages do you speak?
English, Hawaiian Pidgin English (which is actually a language...haha), and Hawaiian. I can also understand some Spanish and Japanese.
6. Why did you start blogging?
I started blogging as a way to meet new people who shared similar interests with me. And I sure have met a lot!
7. Do you use bar soap or liquid body wash?
Liquid body wash!
8. Do you buy bottled water?
Yes, it's mostly supposed to be for emergency preparedness though.
9. What did you think of the Super Bowl Half Time Show?
I didn't watch it. 
10. How do you feel about Steve Carell leaving The Office?
I'm kind of sad. It's going to be interesting to see how they fill that void. I mean sure the whole cast is funny and quirky in their own ways, but everything just seemed so much more pulled together with Michael there.

Nice to Meet Ya!

I don't usually do Monday link-ups, but I found a new one, so let's try it out!


1.  Did you watch the Superbowl?
No, I did not! I love sports (especially football) but I have a hard time getting into pro football when I don't know who is playing/it's not my team. (for the record, I'm a RAIDERS fan). Plus, my ward doesn't start until 1 and Superbowl is in the afternoon, so no time to watch. I did keep up with the score throughout church on ESPN from my phone though! I was a temporary PACKERS fan yesterday!

2.  What is the last book that you read?
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins! I'm still not done with it yet, but I'm absolutely in love with it so far!

3.  What is your favorite kind of cake?
Chantilly cake! Which I just learned is specifically a Hawaii cake! I didn't know that before, I thought that there was Chantilly cake across the world! I think Chantilly cake is most like German Chocolate Cake, but it does taste a little different.
Liliha Bakery makes the BEST Chantilly Cake (and Cocoa puffs with Chantilly frosting...yum!). Zippy's also makes DELICIOUS Chantilly Cakes! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. 

4.  Do you snore?
I only snore when I'm super tired. Like, dead tired-head hits the pillow and I'm out, tired. 

5.  Do you play an instrument?
Sadly, I do not. I'm just not musical. Which is why it is my goal in life to find a husband who IS musical.

the plight of having a boy best friend...

This weekend has been just as tiring as the week before! 
Hopefully this coming week will allow me more relaxation time (but I seriously doubt it!)
Church was PACKED today!
We had a baby blessing & a confirmation.
But a packed church was a major surprise today, since it's super bowl sunday.
(and my ward doesn't start until 1)

Speaking of the Super Bowl,
How you like them PACKERS?
I woke up this morning and decided they were my team.
Because really, I don't care for either team, but the Pack was the underdog, so y'know I had to root for them.
And they won.
If I bet on the game, I so would've won.
But I'm mormon...so I didn't bet...haha.
I all out wore green and yellow to church today!
I even googled Packers inspired eye make-up. 
Yeah I was a major Cheesehead today :)

I got to see my best friend's parents today!
They live on the Big Island, but they've been on O'ahu since friday.
(cause best friend's dad had eye surgery on friday)
Speaking of best friend, he said something so weird to me last night.

We were talking on the phone (we talk almost every night cause he lives on the big island and i live on oahu) and I was telling him about how one of my friends told me that I shouldn't settle on a guy who isn't an RM and he said "Why? What if I wanted to marry you?" 

I was kind of taken aback by his comment because 1. We've never been the type of best friends who've joked about being married one day 2. It was just so sudden, I didn't expect that from him. The idea of marrying him has honestly never crossed my mind. A few posts back, I wrote about how he hurt my feelings because of some other guy and some of you said that he might be crushing on me. I pushed those ideas aside because it was never like that with us. I figured it was more because he was being a protective brother type. But now that he said that I don't know what to think?

The line between "just friends" and "more than friends" is so thin that it is practically invisible. But my question is did his comment mean crossing the line into more than friends territory?

I'm so confused. I've never thought about him as more than a friend, but because of his comment I am way over thinking things. Advice?
