There are two ways of getting up there; choice: Roosevelt High Shool, the "long way." Going up the "long way" can be treacherous, though, especially at night, and a little spooky, so if you decide to go up this way, TAKE. YOUR. TIME. Keep your headlights on low because there are a few cars that drive down the drive as well as up, and we want this trip to be safe as well as fun. Following Round Top Drive can be fun, a favorite of street racers back in the day due to all the turns, limited vision...perfect for thrill-seekers (my hands sweat the whole ride up, just so you know)! LoL! The "short way" is not as exciting, but it's definitely a nice change after a long, almost never-ending, trip up around the mountain. FYI: Before you head up, make sure you bring a jacket, it tends to get a little chilly and windy up there. If you're going with friends, try to keep the noise to a minimum; it's hard to believe that people would live up there, but most of those houses are AMAZING real estate, so it is a residential area, and don't forget your camera! Enjoy!!
KrAshT on a Rock
Join me on my adventure through life and all of its hardships. I invite you to laugh with me, cry with me, discover new and amazing things about this little rock I live on. Every post will showcase something I've discovered or am totally stoked about this home of mine. If you're ever in the neighborhood, and looking for places to go, people to see, fun to be had, I know just the spot...

Mmm...cheesecake!!
So...OTTO CAKE is right in Chinatown, located on 1160 Smith St. They have over 80 flavors of effing cheesecake...80 FLAVORS!! Holy Jesus is so awesome :D! You can order individual slices, one whole cake, and I'm not just talking about cheesecake, here, people, but cupcakes and all kinds of goodies as well. My personal favorite is the Lilikoi cupcakes, so "broke-da-mouth" ono-licious! Man, if you're gonna spend some time in or even anywhere NEAR Chinatown, you gotta stop by this place. For more info, check out their website listed at the bottom of this post. Here, you can check out a few items on the menu, some of the catering menu, and all the info you need to order. This place is flippin' amazing, and a truly orgasmic experience. Get ready to pop your taste-bud cherries, people!

First Things First...
So...in keeping with the purpose of this blog, which is to expose the world to the Hawaii beyond the hula skirts, pupu shell necklaces, and coconut bras, I want to tell you lovely people about a place I'm thinking of applying for. There's this tiny little printing press shop right at the edge of North King Street by Love's Bakery. The shop is so small, and so, let's say, "antique-y," that if you drove by too fast, you wouldn't even see the tiny little wooden sign sitting right outside the front door reading "Kalihi Printing Press." I walked by there the other day and saw the workers at their stations...so cool!! We'll see, though...the shop is so cute!!
