Rona Breakfast for Good Luck
What do you eat for breakfast when you need luck on your side?
So what if it’s 4am in the morning in Hawaii. Need all the luck for the Nike SB Chunky Dunky!!!

Rona Reopening: Ross
Ross Dress for Less reopened its doors on Sunday and the lines to get in were crazy long. Pent up demand and Corona safety measure all contributed to the queues to dress for less.
I’ll be passing for a while. Though there may be good deals with assumed back inventory, I just don’t want to wait in them lines…
Rona Re-targetting Starbucks
On an early visit to Target, this was a welcomed sight.
Yes, the in-store Starbucks is once again brewing albeit with a stanchion-ed maze. There were even these new post-COVID19 cups.
Rona Pokka
Who is Mr. Pokka Coffee, and why is his name Pokka?
This milk coffee gold has been a nice complement to my usual Royal Mills/Ito-en Iced Cappuccino. Not as sweet and heavy but still a nice flavor.
Rona Stars from Starbucks
Starbucks is reopening during this Rona times in a star-filled way. Every mobile order made from now to the end of the month will be rewarded with an extra 25 Bonus Stars.
Rona Times: The Real Cook
On the first day of freedom during this Rona Times, while many flocked to the shopping malls and beaches, I was on a mission for the real cook. No, I didn’t go to Shoe Palace for a chance to walk away with two pairs of Air Jordan 1 Royal Toes. Instead, I headed straight to Wismettac.
Yes, that Wismettac, the importer and distributor of Asian food. The target was the Tamaki Gold bag of rice. A 50-lbs bag of premium grain for a reasonable $67 during a special sale.
Rona Shock Drop: Flint 13
In what could be the worst Nike Shock Drop, the Air Jordan 13 Flint colorway released on Sunday before the final two episodes of The Last Dance. Seemingly all of Twitter predicted this shock drop 30 minutes before the airing. The drop happened more like 2:50pm HST, and it was a disaster.
After the initial attack to the crotch not finding the Flint 13 on SNKRS app, word spread that you needed to try the Nike SNKRS website. For a shock drop?! That’s totally unheard of in today’s day and age of mobile apps. Anyways I headed to Nike.com/launch, saw the shock drop, and luckily snagged a pair.
Rona Queue: Part 2
Another week another queue outside of the new Donut King. This time, the line headed away from Times towards Morning Brew.
Rona SoleFly Air Jordan 10
Was it a Mother’s Day surprise or related to The Last Dance Episodes 7 and 8, but SoleFly shock dropped a colloaboration Air Jordan 10 this afternoon Hawaii time.
My favorite detail is the back logo and color.
Rona Mother’s Day Treats?
Who knew donuts from Donut King would be a hit Mother’s Day treat? The line extended past Times.
Rona Office Politics
Although humanity has become gentler and more understanding during these Rona times, office politics has seemingly gone in the opposite direction. Maybe it’s the lack of proximity with coworkers or the lessened personal interaction, but teamwork feels like its on a downturn.
