The guy on the left is my baby brother (ko toku kii tehina veliveli), Manaia. I know he doesn't look like a baby, in any way, but he is my baby brother. Words can not even begin to explain what he has brought to my life. And despite the troubles and dramas that have come into play in our daily routines, I am glad to have him as my BABY BRO!

Manaia just graduated from Punahou Academy. So yeah, I'm proud of him. He is WAY BETTER THAN ME. I am just the average person, kicking it and taking each day as it comes. I guess I was obsessed with partying, enough to last a lifetime. I have no regrets, and I do know now that I am responsible for my own actions. I am also responsible for my own destiny, and I do pray that I do get somewhere in the nearest future.

(Ko te tama imatau e ko toku tahi kii tehina) The guy on the right is my brother, Aliki. Aliki is attending college somewhere in Iowa. We've had our moments, our fights, our own share of dramas...but I am down with him because he is my "braddah".

"Blood is thicker than water..." a saying or proverb that proves to be true, in my life. It may not be true for all situations, or for all people, but I strongly feel that without (taku famili) my family, I am nothing.

So, here's to my family---A dedication to each and every one of you!! To you, my love and respects, forever and so true. I thank you for the love, the support, and the words of wisdom that have somehow eluded my ears. I know I am not worthy of your love, but thanks for giving it to me anyway. Much Love for Always!! Ofa age kite famili fuli!
