jet lag blues

its 530am, friday, honolulu time and im already up. i hardly had any sleep on the 10.5hrs flight from manila. despite the fact that i could stretch and lie down, i just couldnt sleep much. upon arriving in honolulu by past 8am, i managed to stay awake till 130pm. took a 3-hr nap. then was up till 1130pm. i was thinking that i could trick my body into synching by pushing it a bit.

no luck. i actually woke up at 230am, managed to sleep again. but at 5am, cant sleep no more.

honolulu is clean, orderly. roads are wide, the beach stretch inviting. not too many people on the streets during the afternoon i was going around. i was surprised to see homeless people in the parks. my host told me that other states 'dump' their homeless here, giving them one-way tickets to hawaii. omg.

i have yet to do the rounds of the usual tourism suspects. i got to meet the barkada of my hosts, a gay couple, who have been together for 9yrs now. and their barkada is as interacial as you could get: a pinoy, a chinese american, a white caucasian, a japanese american, an african american... girl, boy, bakla... the humor is quite similar albeit in total english. hehehe

this is going to be a laid back vacation for me...
