Today was definitely a blessed day. Hula was especially special. As I let my Hula sisters know that this was my last week in Hawai'i, I thanked them for such a great experience as many of them lamented that they didn't realize a month had already flown by (me, too). It was particularly wonderful that my Hula teacher, Malia, specifically asked me what routine I wanted to practice (since I've learned a few in my month here) for the last song of the day given I only had this class and next week's left.
I didn't even have to say it but Malia knows how hard I fell in love with the song / routine to "Pua Kiele" so we got to do that one. SO special to me because it's the song that can bring tears to my eyes by just listening to it. Being able to dance it today made Hula really wonderful and I secretly promised that I'd try to nail it down before Tuesday's class so I could do it without having to second guess myself (as I often do when I learn something new).
Anywhoo, the rest of the day was eventful as I got to beach with some of the gals from the studio. It was actually my first time hanging out OUTSIDE of class / the studio with them so it was really awesome. At night, met up with Jeff to go to Honolulu's Art After Dark Museum party thing which was super cool... I got to look at all the different art galleries, the music was dope, and the scene was lit.
