Alas, what I have actually found, is that hanging with high school buddies only reminds me that I haven't really changed at all. It also has taught me that I wasn't alone in truly despising the experience of high school. It's almost as if it's a right of passage to life. And if I'm still the person I was then, I have always rocked :)
The hardest part about moving to a strange land, is trying to sleep on the nights leading up to it. All of a sudden time speeds up, and times passed into a black hole that has suddenly opened. The uncertainty of what will happen is both the most exciting and most terrifying element of my future.
All I can do is keep living and do yoga and bike and play and enjoy the fruits of kauai to relieve the tension.
Kauai is the oldest of the Hawaiian islands and it is known for both it's beauty of nature (it is called the "Garden Isle'), as well as it's healing powers (there is a huge culture of healers, one of which is my mother), that exist here and have touched my life in many ways including the inspiration to become a masseuse.
