Hawaii

In the islands of Hawaii, Hawaiians depended on the land, scavenging for resources to gather in order to survive. Hawaiians became accustomed to the landscape and began to learn how to farm to grow local plants, how to hunt, and fish from the local wildlife. Now days most “Hawaiians” spend time at home on their ipad or in front of their TV or computer screens. Even though there's the ocean to swim in, and the mountains to hike and relax, people still avoid this. Caught up in the fast pace…

When most travelers think of Hawaii they envision cascading waves, warm sunshine, sandy beaches, and balmy ocean breezes. In other words a perfect tropical getaway where your worries just float away on the current. However, there is a very real danger to living here. This is epically true if you reside or visit the Big Island, home of Mauna Kea, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and the Keck Observatory. Even though Mauna Kea is the largest volcano on Earth it remains dormant and possess very…

It had always been a dream of my family’s to someday go to Hawaii and it had finally happened. We had been planning the trip for over a year and before I knew it, I was already there on the gorgeous island of Maui. The first morning we were there we decided to go up to the summit of Haleakala to watch the sunrise. Haleakala is a volcano that has been dormant since 1790. The summit of Haleakala is so serene and definitely one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. The summit of…

most relaxing to go on vacation. Where would you go? Well I recommend either the Islands of Hawaii or Lake Tahoe, Nevada. Both places are rather close to California and are renowned for their specialties in the region, such as temperature, geography, activities and food. Are you looking for a frosty cold vacation or a tropical island feeling? Well, Lake Tahoe goes through all 4 seasons-whereas Hawaii is mostly moist and humid all year long (Climate of Hawai’i). Due to being in an alpine…

I will give back to Hawaii by building connections with God in the communities and the cities of my home, not only with my two hands, but with my whole heart. I will also, donate to charities or to the churches enough money to help people in the community with their needs. I came to Hawaii from Marshall Island in May of 2011. I was only eleven years old at the time. I moved to Hawaii because my parents wanted me to have a better education which will help me get a job that can support my family…

Life on Hawaii’s sugar plantation wasn’t easy in the 1800s for the immigrant workers due to terrible living conditions, miserable working conditions, and race differences. The first reason, is that there were terrible living conditions for the workers. They only got $3 a month and were charged for passage,food, clothing, and housing. The Chinese were taken to grass houses with dirt floors, and sometimes as much as forty men were put into one room. Before, going to the field they would…

wondered what plantation life in Hawaii in the 1800’s was like? In the 1800’s, in the Hawaiian islands the need for sugar cane workers were rising. Hawaii itself did not have enough workers so they improvised by importing workers from other countries like asia, china, and even Japan. The need for the workers was because of the boom in sugar cane. Hawaii had almost perfect weather for sugarcane. Sugar cane prefer a warm climate in a hilly place. Life in Hawaii in the 1800’s in plantation life…

I first went to Hawaii when I was around two years old, so I don’t remember much from it.My parents told me how fun it was and how beautiful Hawaii is and I wanted to go back.Around 10 years later I asked my mom about going and like always she said “I’ll think about it”.Usually “Ill think about” it means yes and I was right,it did.So I went to school and bragged to all my friends like any other kid would do.Then it was the night before I left for Hawaii,i grabbed the biggest suitcase I could…

The Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS) is another base providing a suitable habitat for simulations and research (Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation). The geography at this isolated location in Hawaii is exceptionally similar to that on Mars. Additionally, synonymous with conditions on Mars, the area is largely clear of plants and animals (Hawaii Space Exploration Analog and Simulation). The soil near this Hawaiian base contains minerals also found in Martian…

Yet, Hawaii is facing a big shortage of teachers despite the efforts of the Department of Education to employ more teachers in different schools in the state. The shortage of teachers in the State of Hawaii has been an educational problem, and along with it are the factors like insufficient salaries for teachers, complicated requirements in getting a teacher’s license in Hawaii and the high cost of living resulting in such phenomenon. These impede the quality of education in the State of Hawaii.…
