Today was my last class at HPU, I'm done with year here! It's so unreal, can't believe I've been here (in HAWAII) for one year, time has gone by so fast, but I'm filled with joy and ready for next step in my life, though it's kind of scary but "bara tuta & köra" like we say in Sweden ;)
Anyway, Me & Sandra had dinner at RumFire at Sheraton Waikiki with our IBS respresant Patrick. He gave us our diploma both from HPU and IBS!! :D
I'm so proud of myself and gonna frame them when I get home,, whenever that will be hehe ;)
Ihhhh, I'm smiling from top to toe!

This Wednesday I volunteered with HPU for the annualy Honolulu Marathon at the Convention Center. It was so much fun, and the convention was so nice. Have only passing by and seen the outide before, but the view from the inside was amazing.
In our booth, we asked people to sign different surveys to help our graduates to answer toursim questions like: Is this your first time in HI? How many months ahead did you plan your trip? Would you recommend it to others?
I met people from all around the world(ex. Japan, Norway, Netherlands, Australia, Germany, England, Canada) both that were participating in the marathon and people who was their to support.
I had such a great time! Hope Im not in school next week when they're running the Marathon!
World's largest Aloha Shirt, 400XL!
