My new thing right now is spinning poi. Or fire spinning. I am not in any place to light up yet but I've been practicing everyday and I am getting pretty good for a beginner. I just started 2 wednesdays ago and I already have learned 8 tricks. Now I am just polishing them. Making them smooth and getting my planes straight. My hope is to light this sunday night at my going away party! I am super excited but at the same time a little nervous. But I will have plenty of experienced people around me to help out and to train me on fire safety. I will have to post video and or pictures after the event.
The other night I went to visit Pele again and it was the best I have ever seen. You could actually see the lava flow into the ocean! It was beautiful! I will post pictures later. My computer is being really slow and I can't really upload anything right now but when I can I will put them up!
So I can't believe that tomorrow is my last day of work already. Ahhhh... it is so crazy. I only have a week left then I will be back in Portland for a while! I am really excited about whats to come next although I don't know what that is yet! Being here has given me this new sense of drivenness.. I am realizing how much of a driven person I am-its pretty crazy. I have this new focus, vision, view on life. Its pretty great! The island is such a magical place. The energy of Pele is insane...
In my last post I mentioned how everyone was leaving and newbies were coming.. well I dropped off yet another friend at the airport this morning and around 13 of the 18 newbies are here already! Its been weird to see the change over happen so fast! I will be really sad to leave all my new friends here that will forever hold a special place in my heart! This place definitely rocked my world and opened it up. I am definitely leaving a changed person! I will write more on this in a later post because right now it is hard to put in words how I am feeling and what I've gone thorough this summer. But I can say its been amazing and I have loved my time here.. I can't wait to see all of you soon! I miss you all!
Off to Ocean's going away party- Its another superhero party! It is going to be so much fun!
Aloha!
