Air Canada @ Honolulu International

My mom used to take Air Canada whenever she could.(Her other favorites were BWIA, BOAC/British Airways and Air Jamaica. She flew no others if she could avoid it.) For that reason alone, I wanna fly the airline.

Although you can get to everywhere from San Francisco, Honolulu is a great jumping off point for the Pacific Rim.

The flag

Ive always been fascinated by certain old colonial flags.

Theyve been mostly replaced, but some places still have it. Like the Hawaii state flag.

I wanted to pick up something with the Hawaiian state flag on it, but oddly - I didnt come across any.

Today's horrorscope:

Your ego wants to be served, but you also hear a higher calling -- to serve your soul instead. Give up what others think, want and need to pursue the work that makes you buzz with excitement.

The trip to Hawaii served it's purposes. Now the plan is to watch, wait and follow through.

Heh, no - I dont intend to take up residence in Hawaii, even though even my little brother says it looks like I belong there.
But, the trip did solidify the feeling that im on the right track. And with that, I find my patience wearing thin. With work, with school, with waiting.

I wanna just go do what I do.

But hey, it's called a 5 Year Plan, not a 5 Minute Plan for a reason.
