Yo i was born and raised there. The beach is a everyday thing. Air-con is a must have during summer time, but you get used to it after a while. KICKZ/HI hasmostly SB's and general releases. Once in a while they have some limited #+*... Yet try out In4mation for some gear. OH DAMN!!! Zippy's chili is bombgo there and Genki sushi. Oh try looking up Boulevard Saimin if you go to Oahu. Its by my place. (warning: pretty ghetto area, but the Ramen and Udon noodlesare the best. Just dont go during night time. Its by Kalihi area, if you got some hawaiian friends they should know bruddah.)
FYI: You are gonna pick up the local pigeon accent after 6 months or so

Just do it. Lived there for 4.5 yrs and I miss it every single day.
Of course my time was on the gov'ts dime so it wasn't as expensive.
Only move to Ewa if you have too, traffic does suck. Especially when army cranes knock down foot bridges over the the H1 and close the highway for hours.
Gov't jobs are everywhere, and if you work on base you get some privileges such as tax free shopping and so forth.
When you get there, hit up Kuru Kuru and have a mix bowl if you like sushi.

Fitted is across from Ala Moana Shopping Center also. They sell hats and stuff.
Kind of feel silly recommending spots like that since it's a lot of stuff probably easier to find in most metro mainland cities.
You were warned about Ewa so don't complain if you don't like it. I live near Aloha Stadium and can't stand the traffic. Can't imagine how badit it out there.
Eventually there's supposed to be a rail being built but knowing the government who knows?
Akasaka, Yanagi Sushi and Shokudo are good for Japanese foods. Pietros is good too if you like sort of Italian fusiony food.
Obviously some good Chinese places in Chinatown/Downtown despite the sketchy people lurking.

Chinatown/Downtown is on the up when it comes to bars. Great scene, great music, people may be a bit pretentious, but going to the waikiki/ala moana area barsgets old
Definitely check out Yohei sushi too...and that spot in the old Harpo's building that just opened is legit if you're willing to let the chef (Yuji)pick the sushi for you.
Zippy's is a must, especially after long nights out.

I was there when that happened...luckily I was already at work.
Anyway I lived in Hawaii for 3yrs...by the 2nd year it was time to go. It didn't help that I couldn't stand my job. The only thing that kept me sanewhile living there was the food and the weather. H-1=
