I realized that the time when I am not appreciate the things around me,it is also the time I complain the most.Living in BYU Hawaii has numberless things to be thankful for.
I am really grateful for my current job and the jobs I did in PCC. As students in BYU Hawaii, we are lucky to have a job to support ourselves, as well as gain working experiences before graduate. My first year and half, I worked for Food and Beverage Department in PCC. It was an extremely the best working experiences.

Learning with an instructor can be very hard. It is like sheep without shepherd. Because this is a church school, the instructors I have had so far, are all very kind. They are knowledgeable and spiritual. One of the instructors I have this semester, assign one of the students to share a scripture that is related to reading. This activity helps me to ponder how to make connection between the gospel and the career that I will do in the future.
Besides instructors, I am so grateful for the staffs who are working in the cafeteria each day and even on Sundays. During school days, cafeteria opens early around 7 and close about 9 pm. Students can just walk in anytime to eat, and do not have to worry about washing dishes. It fits everyone’s busy school schedule. Therefore, We do not have to go at a certain time. As I know that working in cafeteria is not an easy job. It is very tiring job. However, we are so blessed to have people chose to work there and help us to be successful in

Having a temple located beside our campus makes this campus a unique place for all of us. Each week, there are many faculties and students serving there as a temple worker. I am so grateful to be one of them.This is a learning opportunity that God provided for me so that I can learn early. Like temple president’s wife says: young people who serve here is a huge blessing, they do not have to wait till older age. This serving experiences can help them do better in their future
I entered through the cafeteria and the first thing I noticed was the smiling faces that came from teachers, students and parents. Teachers stood around different areas of the cafeteria and handed out breakfast to students. I found
I am a student who is beginning the second semester of the third year at the Lutheran Seminary at Gettysburg. I have discerned a call towards Word and Sacrament ministry and thus far have loved every minute of the time spent at the seminary. From the relationships with the professors to the education I receive in the classroom, working on campus and studying in the library, it is evident that God is at work in this place calling and sanctifying leaders to serve God’s church.
The capital of Hawaii is Honolulu (the star on the map shows where the capital is). People have a nickname for the state, they call it the “Aloha State” The current population for Hawaii is 1,360,301. It's pretty small compared to some of the mainland states. Hawaii is located at (21.3000°N, 157.8167°W). Honolulu is 4,957 miles from New York City. We acquired Hawaii in 1959. What happened was a group of sugar and pineapple businessmen, aided by the American minister to Hawaii and supported by U.S. soldiers and marines overthrew Queen Liliuokalani, the last reigning monarch of Hawaii. Two years later, the Republic of Hawaii was established as a U.S. territory making Hawaii our 50th state.
Have you ever had to work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week, for only a few dollars each month? Asian immigrants had to. Plantation owners wanted more workers to make more sugar so they could make more money, so they imported more workers. Plantation life in Hawaii in the 1800s was strenuous. Living conditions were bleak, working conditions were detrimental, and the plantation owners were racist.
God has been at work in my life in so many ways in this last year. This past summer, I worked at Trout Lake Camps, a Bible camp in Pine River, Minnesota. This experience not only taught me how wonderful a Christian community is, but also how to give my life completely over to Him. I was able to have meaningful conversations with campers about their faith, and ways they could come closer to God. I also know that God has placed this camp in my life not only to tell young students about Jesus Christ, but to learn how to stretch my faith beyond its limits. I can not wait to bring what I have learned to Northwestern. I believe that UNWSP will continue to stretch my limits and take me deeper in my walk with God. I plan to make life-long friends while
Did you ever wonder how life was like for immigrant workers on the sugar pla in the 1800s to know if it was easy or not. With this information, it would be obvious that immigrant workers did not have it easy for them. This because immigrant workers changed the face of the islands when they made Hawaii there permanent home. This is because it changed the population of Hawaii because it had many new races that helped lead to the annexation of the United States. Three reasons workers didn’t have an easy life is because they had bad living situations, working situations, and labor
As part of my networking, there are some high school classmates who I am in constant contact with. We all went to college and have our own careers in different fields. One of these friends allowed me to live with her for my first year out of college. Four of us played volleyball together. They are from Waianae, Kaneohe, and Waimanalo and they?re Hawaiian, Portuguese, and Japanese. Over the years, we realized we get our strength from our diversity. When we have a
The reason why I came to Hawaii is because I wanted to teach our religion. About God heaven and h*ll and how if you believe in him you can go to heaven. So right now the missionaries and myself are working on the hawaiian language. This is because, they do not have a written language. And once we made a language for them then we can teach them about the
It is with great news that I write to you on this momentous day, brother. I have finally landed in San Francisco. About time as well. I don’t think I was ever able to gain sea legs. Now, it is time for me just like our fellow countrymen abroad to serve Japan in expanding her influence. While aboard the ship, I was able to to study the guides. There was a lot of useful information in all of them. I believe I gained a great deal from How to Go to America Alone.

It’s May 11, 3029. There’s 2 days until my birthday and I’ve been planning my party for months. I moved to Hawaii a few years ago, so I’m having a beach party! I’m so excited! My mom called me downstairs, “ Hey Malooloo! Come down and pick out a kid!” I couldn’t decide between a surfboard cake or a lei made of cupcakes, so I called my friends Jojo and Lola over to help me decide. As soon as they walked in, they plopped down on the floor to pet my alien dog, Stitch. “ Hello there Mr. Stitchypoo.” giggles Jojo. Stitch is all blue with wide eyes and purple floppy ears. I adopted him last month after his spaceship from planet Stefano crashed into the library. Lola and Jojo ended up spending the night so we could go shopping the next morning.
In English class we talked about how high housing in Hawaii costs compared to the mainland. Do the positive points about living in Hawaii outweigh the negative points? Mainlanders think that living in paradise is amazing. But many locals may beg to differ. Living in Hawaii can take some big sacrifices on your part. The excessive heat, bugs, high cost of living, and many more sacrifices can drive away some of the mainlanders who moved to Hawaii.
What makes politics so important to the United States? When hearing the word “politics”, the president and first family are generally what comes to mind. Of course the president plays an important role but there are lots of other key factors that contribute to politics. There are three branches of government, each with its own special and specific role. The legislative branch writes and creates laws, the judicial branch judge’s laws and the executive branch enforces these laws. The president belongs to the executive branch and plays several different roles in office.
