Kristie Green:  

drew. I remember going to prom with Gary and dating Orin Honda. My sister Stephanie kept setting me up with dates. The best memory of Honokaa High was David Yagong sitting on the portch of the school and playing "Red Red Wine" on the Uku Lele. I especially remember band and watching the drummers. There was one guy that was unusually tallented with drums and piano. I admired him for his tallent. Mr Hunt and his english classes. Mr Nakagawa, Mrs Duer, Mr Kubo. I think I had the greatest time in Honokaa. The I was suddenly in Belen, NewMexico. Again a new kid. Funny thing is I picked up on the pidgen accent so much that people teased me and told me I talked like a 3rd grader. But I quickly got back to the swing of things. I remember hanging with Theresa. I had a crush on a couple of young guys. I dated Donny Gribble. I remember hanging out with Phillip and Edwin. They made me feel so welcome. I adopted them as big brothers. I went to prom with Erik Padilla. I had alot of fun in Drama and Band. I really loved the band then. Mr Delgado taught me soooo much about self discipline. Then finally came my senior year. Again I was in Hawaii. I knew the culture. I was a bit more confident now. I had a summer romance with Virgil Green. Then I dated Shaun Kite. My bestest friend wis Mia Ward. We had so many adventures driving my car and partying at her house. I loved Hapuna Beach. Had some fun at the Old Airport. Worked at Hawaiian Treasures. Tried out modeling. Was in drama with my cousin Kary and my stepsister. Had fun in the Liberated Cinderella play. Hung out with Kimo (James Spalding) Remember talking to Todd Brayton about some serious decisions he was making. I hope he is ok today. Because I moved so much, I became a very adaptable person. I loved all the great gifts all you guys taught me. So many of you gave me so much kindness. I may not have spoken your name, But I do remember all the kindness you guys welcomed me with. And I thank you all for that.
