New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are the two days a year in Hawaii that actually give Hawaii a D grade by the American Lung Association national standards for air quality, which is really bad.

The American Lung Association nationally actually gives us a D grade for overall particulate matter just because of those two days.

I know one day I'll be considered too old. I think 40-year-old women actually look more healthy and fit than some girls in their 20s. I've met women who have way better bodies in their 40s because they've been working on them for all these years.

Keep the air conditioner running, use air purifiers if they have any and also drink plenty of fluids. And you might want to start drinking fluids now. That helps loosen the mucous and help you cough.

I think it was actually a blessing in disguise that I come from Hawaii, where they just back up all their athletes no matter how foreign it may be to the state of Hawaii.

It's absolutely great. Especially as my birthday is on New Year's Eve.
