I didn't know belt buckles were popular amongst polynesians...











I am aware of many fashion trends amongst my people but I must have missed this one: belt buckles?!

 I was tagged on this picture last night on my facebook account.  I don't know much about this ad but I like it.  At first I didn't notice the BELT BUCKLE! I noticed the cute guy and his tattoo...go figure.  But this is a Limited Edition POLY LOVE American Samoa Belt Buckle made by Peni Taufa'ao.  Included are the Tongan and Hawaiian buckles!

To order yours, email polylove.penitani@yahoo.com

...A NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER

SO I AM GOING TO CHALLENGE MYSELF TO DO A FACIAL/MAKEOVER EVERYDAY THIS MONTH AND I WILL POST THE PICTURES OF MY FRIENDS, COUSINS, AUNTS, UNCLES, AND EVEN GET GRANDMA IN ON ALL THE ACTION!  IF I ASK YOU, PLEASE SAY YES! I WANT TO PRACTICE MY SKILLS THAT I AM LEARNING FROM BEING A MARY KAY INDEPENDENT BEAUTY CONSULTANT.  SO LOOK FOWARD TO THOSE FUTURE DAILY POSTS!

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE TOMORROW, FELLOW AMERICANS

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE TOMORROW!!!

IF YOU LIVE IN PROVO, UTAH CHECK OUT MICHELLE KAUFUSI!

I was born and raised here in Provo, as one of seven children raised by a single mother. Money was always tight, and I became a fiscal conservative at a young age (something demonstrated in my grassroots campaign run entirely by unpaid volunteers). I attended Provo public schools, graduating with honors from Provo High. An academic scholarship took me to BYU where I majored in elementary education. My grandparents, Martha and Glen Kenner, influenced my decision to major in education. I fondly remember visiting the kindergarten class my grandmother taught at Maeser Elementary and watching my grandfather teach at Provo High.
Partly because of my positive experience with Provo public schools, I have dedicated myself to our schools for roughly the last 16 years of my adult life, serving in numerous capacities, including in the classroom, in the PTA, and as a member of two Community Councils (Rock Canyon Elementary for three years; Timpview for four), determining how land-trust funds should be spent to benefit our schools.
Through serving, I believe I have gained a reputation for proposing and implementing common-sense solutions to problems, while maintaining good relationships with stakeholders, such as teachers, administrators, parents, and students.
In closing, let me say a kind word about my opponent. I appreciate everyone who serves our public schools, including our current school-board member, Carolyn Wright. I believe there have been some real positives from her service. Carolyn is, however, asking to serve us for 12 years (she has served eight at this point), and I believe a fresh approach would be a welcome change at this time.
For this reason, I respectfully ask for your vote on Tuesday November 2, 2010.
