Hawaiian Blues

I've been feeling a little guilty these last few days for throwing a pity party when I'm living in such a beautiful place, but, can i just say, this past week was rough! I guess even in paradise you're bound to get the short end of the tiki torch sometimes. A homeless guy grabbed me, wrestled my phone out of hands and took off. Then I just about had the worst work week ever with back to back deliveries, emergency c-sections and postpartum hemorrhages. What's up, Bad Karma? To what do I owe the pleasure of your company? I believe this week may have spurred me into a mid-twenties life crisis. I've been trying to come up with a new and completely different career path. Something that does not involve saving lives.

I think I need less work and more of this...

Waimea

Posting has been difficult because I'm working nights. Shawn works weird hours sometimes, too. Good news though: I have 4 weeks left of my travel assignment! It WILL go by fast.

Shawn's sister, Brittany, came to visit last week. One day we went to Waimea Bay on the North Shore. We all jumped off the 30 ft rock. It hurt! And while I was jumping off the rock, my pink float blew away and was intercepted by some locals. But it was totally worth it. Here is more of my video magic. You can see me jumping off the rock in this one. I'm the one on the highest point of the rock. Shawn held the camera while he jumped.



More jumping. This video is of Shawn and Brittany. Brittany was so scared!
