Luau After Party in the Dorms

As it got later in the night of the luau and nobody wanted to leave again. Everyone was having such a good time.

The band Kapena was playing again. They’d played the night before at the Gordon Biersch party.

The girls danced a lot and the guys stood around with their hands in their pockets trying to look cool. Just like high school.

These guys all lived together for years when they boarded at the school.

After the luau a bunch of people went up to the dorms where there was a big party going on. We passed by this bench where all of the boarders used to always hang out, so everyone got there photo taken there for old times sake.

Nobody can remember what spurred this, but everyone was going crazy in this next photo.

Dallas loves this fruit punch. Probably 0% fruit. He stole a whole bunch of it to bring back to the dorms.

Walking through campus for the first time in 15 years was quite a trip for a lot of people. When we got to the dorm there was food and drink as far as the eye could see. Many stories to be told and memories to be shared. There were at least 1 or 2 rounds of everyone singing the Kamehameha Schools fight song. Everyone stayed and hung out well into the morning hours.

It was kind of sad to finally leave. And to think the next day how far it was in between the last time Dallas saw his friends til now and how long it may be til we see them again. But if we all make an effort we will stay in touch, even if it’s just online. A hui hou!
