Cockroaches, geckos, lizards, and all other kinds of critters are standard fare. Nothing bothered me and I thought the hawaiian bugs weren’t so bad. And then I saw my first Hawaiian centipede. I’ve never seen one in my life before today, and god DAMN are they some freaky little bastards. They are fast as a pissed off snake, with a venemous bite to match. Here is the picture that proves that they will indeed die after swimming in Raid for 10 minutes.
Look how big this thing was!
I’ve been pretty unhappy with my house for a while, and this is the last straw, I can’t wait to get the hell out of here.
Now every time I step outside, or crawl into bed in the pitch dark, I’m going to be thinking that this centipedes family is waiting for me there, ready to avenge his death! Thankfully I’m soon moving to a new place down in Waikiki, and it’s on the 24th floor. Try to climb up 24 stories… yeah, that’s what I thought, YOU CAN’T (I hope).

I hate boring pictures.
Whether it’s because I took some photography courses in undergrad or I just have a creative mind, pictures where everyone is just smiling with a shiteating grin on their face, staring straight at the camera just bug me. The result is, when I go out, I try to take unique and fun pictures, and one way I do that is by taking other peoples hats and sunglasses and wearing them for the photos. The greatest idea ever? Lol, not really, but it makes for some good myspace pics.
PS Due to popular request, I’ll be reviewing the Honolulu bar/club scene in the next post or two. Anyone planning on coming into town will want to read up as I put my honest, real world experience to work for you
