Hawaii

When you say to people, "Oh I live in Hawaii" , people expect so much. they think that we always have a good time, going to the beach everyday, having the perfect tan, drinking coconuts, climbing up trees to get our food, eating only tropical fruits, sleeping in hammocks, that everyone surfs, and we all hula. We are just like regular people, just living in a different place. Kids go to school, parents work, it a very basic life. The only unusual thing is that we are in the middle of the pacific ocean. Sure its sunny most in the time here, I'm not trying to say that Hawaii is not an amazing place to live, but its just not the place that everyone says it is. We have coconuts, not everyone likes it, we have tropical fruit. We have beaches everywhere and waterfalls and a lot of rain. Hawaii is an amazing place to live, but we just don't have our own dolphins and go to water school and live in grass huts.
