Same here ！ We are also declining Iolani.
I heard that they are preliminarily accepting more than 100 students this year because last year there were more than 20 students who withdrew from Iolani.

Punahou had about 3 students last year.
It seems that alternates can retake 1,2,3 grade, but when I asked Admissions, it seems that there are quite often zero vacancies, and I wonder if anyone quits Punahou except for transfers or something.
I want to wait until the last minute to pray.

My child was also rejected from Punahou but passed Iolani and Le Jardin.
My child did not even make the waitlist for Punahou.
At my child's pre-school, 7 students took the test and none passed Punahou, and only 1 was waitlisted. At my child's preschool, 7 students took the test and none were accepted to Punahou and 1 was waitlisted, but 6 were accepted to Iolani and 1 was waitlisted.
This year, it seems that all the kids from the same school also got accepted to Iolani, but what happened? Did they pass a large number of students because a large number of Iolani withdrew? It seems that there are 50 people waitlist this year. Two people here have already said that they are declining Iolani, so I have more doubts than joy because of the large number of people who have been accepted.
Iolani, I hear that many children attend pediatric counselors, and I wonder how it would be educational for 90% Asians to study hard. I see Iolani massively passing, and I am somewhat reluctant to let it go.

I was disappointed in Punahou.
My child was also accepted to Iolani. There were 300 Iolani and Kinder applicants this year, and there were also openings for 4th graders, and with the news about the 12th grade bullying, they may have passed a lot because they expected more students to turn down.

I have heard that 90% of the people in more than half of the classes have passed the Iolani exam, and I have heard of a few alternates, but only one person has been rejected. I have only heard of one rejection.
Punahou really only had 2 people who passed, but I talked to someone from another preschool who told me that 7 people from that preschool took the Punahou test and about 4 people passed. And it seems that those 4 people also passed Iolani.
There were not so many people who took the Iolani exam, but there were so many people who passed the Iolani exam that more than half of those who took the Iolani exam must have passed the Iolani exam.

My cousin is in Hana Hau'oli and tried to get into Punahou's Kinder, but it was a no go. It seems that Punahou has put a lot of effort into the academics of the entire school over the past 3-4 years, and it is very difficult to get into both the kinder and middle schools. My daughter will be applying for the Kinder exam in August this year, so I have been watching this board very carefully.

Whether or not a Hybrid is a good buy depends on your lifestyle. I drive a Toyota SUV Hybrid.

My car is 15 years old, 160,000 miles and gets better gas mileage than the new 2025 Mazda CX-5 I recently bought for my daughter.
Hybrids need to be kept for 6 － 8 years or more to make money, taking into account the rising cost of gasoline. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is a good choice. If you plan to drive it all the time, a hybrid is the way to go.

Thank you, I will try to get the hotel to open in the next couple of weeks. The hotel is a resort a little ways off the strip. I still think it's going to cost a parking lot, I'm afraid 🥲

I'll check out some good restaurants. Let me know if you have any recommendations.

If you are staying in a remote hotel, Uber is the only way to get to the strip and back. Don't take a cab, you will get ripped off
Once you get to the strip, there is a bus that runs around the clock and you can take it to remote downtown areas.

#1060 Roachiman,

I moved from NY to LA around 1971, so the hit song at that time was

Albert Hammond - It Never Rains in Southern California
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meDpNwem0Vo&list=RDmeDpNwem0Vo&start_radio=1

This was the song. I had heard about it, but the fact that it hardly rains means that I can ride my Motorcycle everyday. So I took a leap of faith, ate lunch at Famous Star and cheap today's specials at Norms Restaurant in the evening, saved up money throughout the year, and bought a new Storts Star that cost less than a Harley-Davidson Full Dress. I bought a new car, a Storts Star, which costs less than a Harley-Davidson Full Dress.

Have you ever had "homesickness （ homesickness ）" when you first arrived here from Japan?

I did. My first time in the U.S. was in the City of New York, where I stayed at the apartment of an older colleague who had come before me. Naturally, I could speak Japanese 24 hours a day, so I felt totally at ease, but I could not stay there for long, so I asked him to choose a suitable rental room from the Rent Room section in the Classified Section of the New York Times or some other local newspaper, and I called him and asked him to show me the room. I called him and asked him to show me the room at that location.

I don't understand the connection between rented rooms and homesickness. When you went to see the room, did you suffer from sick building syndrome and became homesick due to mental shock? Did you make the branch manager or senior staff responsible for causing the problem?

＞ I don't understand the connection between renting a room and homesickness

Sorry, I didn't explain myself well enough.

I started working as an expatriate in an office in New York City, my first foreign country, and I was living in the apartment of a senior Japanese expatriate. Therefore, there were Japanese people around me 24 hours a day, and of course we spoke in Japanese.

After that, I found an apartment for rent near Broadway/104th St. in Uptown New York and moved there. The landlord was a Latino-like grandmother, and of course I could only communicate in English.

On holidays, from my window, I can only see the windows of a similar old apartment building across the street that is 10 or more stories tall. I didn't have anything better to do on my day off, so I just sat around and didn't look at the windows of the apartment across the street, and I felt homesick, as if I had never felt like this in Japan.

I couldn't stay in my room and just sat around, so I went outside and walked east to the north end of the famous Central Park. I walked outside to the east and entered the north end of the famous Central Park. This area is the location of the famous movie/musical West Side Story (1961 film). My office staff told me to be careful because there are street gangs roaming around there, but I didn't get into any danger because I only explored that area in the middle of the day.

Usually with trees like that, you cut off the small branches in the off-season and
grow them in pots and fertilize them at first. When they get big enough, you move them to land. I think that's how it works.
I did it with grapes, and they were doing well, but the gardeners threw them away （ tears ）
I think it still takes a few years for them to bear fruit.

I think it would be faster to buy them from some nursery ？.

Thank you ！ It takes that long 🥲

For now, I think it would be better to buy one pot of fruit from Nursery, grow and eat it, and enjoy growing the branches I get from that house.

I wonder if I should cut the branches around there ？ Do you have any advice ？

Also, I don't think I have ever come across a Nursery that sells Kumquat in the past ？
The last time I saw a potted kumquat plant was about 10 years ago at a swap meet, sold by an Asian guy. I remember regretting it for a while because even then I was traveling far from home and didn't buy it.

Some types of citrus are banned from sale. I don't know if you can get them because they are regulated to prevent disease and I saw on the news that a vendor in San Diego sued the governor of the state by the million as he had to get rid of his seedlings.
There are plenty of YouTubers who can find you trees to take, but they are more likely to be successful than cuttings.

In Japan It seems to be everywhere, but at 99Ranch I was told that they don't even know what koji is, so I am having difficulty. I don't know much about it and I'm not good at explaining it either 😞

Thanks again for the price increase🫠😊.

Channel J has been closed down.

It looks like you can sign up online, but there is a company called Isakura.
I think it's a Hong Kong company ？ You don't buy the equipment, you download the
system to your Smart TV.

There is another company, but I wouldn't recommend that one, because last year, I got 12 months of viewing for about ＄ 600
.

There were many companies like Channel J in Hawaii, but
most of them left after 2021.

I used to watch Channel J myself, but when I heard
that they were pulling out, I stopped.
