Epic can go two ways – epic good and epic bad. Today was the latter. Hmm, this week has been the latter.

Rona Relaxing
Just kicking it on a Sunday afternoon during these Rona times… Yup, I managed to get a pair of the KFC Crocs collab!

After the Training Camp of the Wizendard Series, Season One begins with Reggie.
Nine Bankrupt Businesses
If you’ve walked around a shopping mall during this COVID time, you’ve seen the desolation firsthand. Very little customers and permanently closed stores are common sights. So much so that here are nine business that have gone bankrupt: NPC International (Pizza Hut, Wendy’s) Lucky Brand Brooks Brothers Sur La Table Muji RTW Retailwinds Heritage Brands […]

Insulted by Blue Oats
Hmmm, should I be insulted since I did NOT win the Adidas raffle for the new Yeezy 380 “Blue Oats?” I learned that the reflective version was very limited, but I didn’t consider that this non-reflective version would be difficult to get. And even though Adidas held a raffle, I thought winning one would be […]

Disappointed in Polar Cop
This topic is going to be subjective with differing points of view, but I just wanted to voice my disappointment with Polar Cop. Described as software “redefining iOS checkout automation,” this software went on sale publicly this morning. But due to its popularity, the launch was beset with technical problems and was delayed. Sadly we […]

Rona Eats: Boba Bar
In these Rona Times, this Brown Sugar Boba Ice Cream Bar is a popular seller. Found at local markets, finding these frozen boba drinks on a stick isn’t so easy. Some reviews: What I found at Palama Market: Brown sugar boba ice cream bars Is the Brown Sugar Boba Ice Cream Bar Worth the Hype? […]

The Rona RNNR
In a totally unexpected move in these Rona Times, the news of the collaboration of The Gap and Kanye West was joined by the surprise release of the Yeezy RNNR. This new silhouette of an organic and futuristic sandal went on sale on Yeezy Supply and quickly sold out. Sadly, despite my efforts, I could […]

Yeah, that Ye, that Mr. West, that former Gap employee who is now the creative director of Yeezy Gap. The hope is that this ten-year agreement can and will revive the […]

Rona Resell: Pools
I know that selling pools on the mainland is very lucrative as the heat of summer and isolation of COVID-19 prevails. But I didn’t think pool selling would be popular in Hawaii since we’re essentially in the pool called the Pacific Ocean. But after seeing this in Target going to a single customer, pool selling […]

Rona Memories: Nitrogenie Ala Moana
Going through Amazon Photos with unlimited storage for Prime members, I came across this picture of Nitrogenie opening at Ala Moana. This photo is dated November, 15, 2015 (and taken with an iPhone 6). Don’t recall how long they lasted, but lines were long for some time.

Rona Shopping at Ala Moana
While shops continue to reopen at Ala Moana, many still remain closed. So when shopping at Ala Moana, it doesn’t have the same feel to it. Returning shoes at Footlocker, you are greeted by these signs and maybe a line if there are more than 15 customers inside. The inside of the Starbucks Reserve is […]
