Kina Grannis Concert in Hawaii

Kyle Nishioka — Mon, 21 May 2012 09:14:58 +0000

It’s so rare when a musician I admire performs a live concert in this town. I don’t even recall the last time I paid for tickets to a concert here. It was such a treat although there were many a technical difficulty. But, she pushed on through it all. A real trooper.

Better late than never. I caught two fashion shows two weeks ago at First Friday. Work has been keeping me busy. ’nuff said.

Kawaii Kon 2012

The complete photo set can be found on Flickr.

My favorite anime convention was last weekend and although it looked like it might rain, we were quite lucky to not have to deal with anything more than a brief drizzle. The costumes were as bright and creative as ever. If you’ve never been to a Con (anime, sci-fi, fantasy, etc.) the experience is so much different than Halloween. The cosplayers have an attachment to their costumes that the average Halloween-goer does not. Halloween costumes are meant to be disposable whereas most cosplayers will keep their costume from year to year and build onto the costume gradually. Cosplayers identify with their characters and take pride in their handiwork. In a nutshell, one can find a Ghostbuster anywhere but only certain type of person will put in the effort to go beyond an inflatable Proton Pack.

My friends at Revolve Hawaii put on a private screening of The Hooping Life. And wherever a bunch of hoopers congregate, there is bound to be a hoop jam.

And here’s the full photo set.

2011 Year in Review

Well, another year is at an end. There have been some bright spots and some low spots. All in all, a pretty good year. Is it me or are they getting shorter?

Hawaii’s Total Lunar Eclipse

I got up at 2 a.m. and drove out to Mokuleia to catch the last total lunar eclipse visible from Hawaii until 2014/2015. While I was there, I figured I should try giving this time lapse thing another try.
