It doesn’t matter if it’s juicy tarot card readings, or a fortune cookie from Panda Express. I’m small kine obsessed with knowing what the future holds, so are you surprised at the fact I’m going to tell you a casual story about my trip to the fortune-teller? It was six months ago, at a point […]
With as much as I would love to be a yogi, busting out headstands like it’s NBD, or a rad surfer that shreds waves like a pro. The reality is, I’m a marathon junkie who conquers finish line after self-accomplishing finish line like a true badass. Seriously, nothing gets me more hot and bothered than […]
Between having my mom as a roommate and saying goodbye to my year round tan, transition from mermaid to mainlander has been a far cry from your typical “happily ever after.” I’m not going to lie, I slipped into a low-key depression after letting go of life in Hawaii. I mean think about it, people dread […]
Two days ago, I eagerly aged into a 26-year-old Mermaid woman. It’s not usually typical for someone to be so stoked on turning the random age of 26, but in case you haven’t realized, I’m not your typical individual. I’m a marathon runner, and this specific birthday celebration is pretty monumental to me because today, I […]

This year, I decided to forget about my journalism degree and learn how to master the art of life through my own personal experience. Sure I say it loud and proud now, but after making the ballsy move to become a college-dropout, I was filled with a sense of shame when friends asked me how […]
Isn’t it ironic how we all have an undying fascination for sharks, yet they are one of the most feared creatures on our planet? From an epic week of documentaries on The Discovery Channel, to major blockbuster hits like “Jaws” and “Deep Blue Sea,” today’s society has the tendency to portray sharks as villains of […]
Airplanes are a peculiar kind of situation — you’re neither in the place you’ve been, nor in the place you’re going. You are above the world at peace, reflecting on the experiences you’ve encountered while manifesting the possibility of what’s yet to come. Two years ago, as I traveled through the clouds in route to […]
In the eyes of a mainlander, life in Hawaii seems like an endless vacation, full of sunshine and surf. Even though we don’t have society’s typical nine-to-five doesn’t mean we don’t work. In fact, the most driven people on these islands clock in at sunrise and hustle hard until the sunset. Take for instance, July’s Mermaid […]
