Honolulu's newest celeb?

Still trying to gather pictures from carnival...Any who, for those of you I didn't franticly text, I was on KITV news for a few minutes Friday night. My ten seconds of fame didn't last long, but I shared my thoughts on how "working at the beverage center is actually hard."

The lieutenant governor, Brian Schatz, modestly took part in some humble water balloon throwing. 

Here with the rest of my booth chairs. This was a job well done! (I designed that poster!)

とったど〜

勝俣州和　をシェラトンで子供とプールへいくのを発見。日本からの友達と一緒に写真を撮ってもらった。勝俣ーありがとう！黒バラいつも見てるよ！

I saw japanese comedian, Katsumata Kunikazu at the Waikiki Sheraton during winter break. Thanks for stopping to take a picture with us when you were on your way to the pool with your kiddy! :)

Gerard Depardieu

When we got on the plane in Florence, my aunt and grandma quickly suspected that the man that just got on the plane was Gerard Depardieu. Although skeptical, they kept to themselves. When we reached baggage in Paris, a lady helping us with baggage confirmed the facts. She told us that he often travels and he isn't a rare sight. I had no idea who he was, but my aunt kept emphasizing how big of a deal he was. She told me that I should go ask him for a picture but at first I was too shy. After five minutes of mental back and forth, telling myself now or never, I stirred up the courage to ask him for a photograph. He was reluctant, and said yes but to make it quick. My aunt snapped a photo of the two of us and we parted. He did keep it real when he picked up his own baggage, props to him. 

Depardieu is a french actor and film maker.  He had the lead role of Cyrano de Bergerac when he won a nomination for an Academy Award. Amongst many other nominations and American awards, he has won the césar award for best actor also. Read more about him on wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%A9rard_Depardieu
