Wednesday 1st 2009
In the shower I tried to get as much oil out of my hair as I could with soap but it didn't work that well. We signed out of the htoel (thank god) and went to macca's for breaky. I got hotcakes but I didn't eat them all as usual.
Then we went to the port to board the cruise boat, I was a bit worried but once we safely left the dock I was happy. We sat near two young guys, Dom and Anthony and they are on their uni holidays. The baot trip took about one and a half hours. I had Kava on the way there then we took a glass bottom boat to the island, the glass had cracks in it which worried me. When we got to the island our guide saidwe got go and get changed and go snokerling in the ocean or snokerling in the bar! I choose the ocean, I went over to Dom and Anthony, I can't remember which one but one of them said I should be a model not a photographer. I smiled. THen we got our gear and took the glass bottom boat out to the reef. I sat next to Anthony. When I hoped into the water he made sure I was ok. The coral wasn't as bright as I thought it would be but still beautiful. I saw bright blue starfish and nemo. :) When we got back to shore we had a massive lunch. I sat with Anthony and took photos. Also beforelunch I got some great photos of people playing volley ball. I also meet a guy from Poland. After lunch we went snokerling again but it was really rough. Then it was time to had back to the cruise ship, I couldn't believe the day went so quickly. I went on the first trip back to the boat with Dom. It was rough heading back and raining and I didn't have any dry clothes so Anthony was nice enough to share his towel with me. The two guys were so nice we talked the whole we back. We have to take mum's sister's family out for t and the guys said to do to the sheridan because they got a two for one deal on. Also that's where they are staying. We said our goodbyes and hoped to see each other at the sheridan. At Shamilas I checked my photos none of them where there, I cried. But hopefully I can get them back we I go home. I took my camera to the sheridan. I saw the boys, I told them what happen to my camera, they said they'd try and fix it while I had t. T was good except I had sushi which made me feel sick. When I went to see the boys they were able to find 254 photos I was so happy. I got anothony's number and we said we'd all catch up for lunch tomorrow.
After t we went back to shamila's and stayed the night.

First Three Days in Fiji
Well I'm finally home. It was an amazing trip. Well I guess I bet to get into it....
By the way I'm not changing the tense, I'm leaving it the way I wrote it.
Thursday 25th June
We'll be in Nadi, Fiji soon. I've got the window seat so I can take pictures of the clouds. That's my favourite bit about the fl:ight is the fact that I'm above the clouds the sky is really the limit. Mummy dear just order my a hot chocolate :)
We're about a hour or so into our flight. The hot chocolate is to die for, it's so yummy! and sweet. LAst time I came to Fiji, I watched the flight attendants and I wanted to be them. How things change, even though maybe I still do want to be them with their pretty faces, good bodies and the best work uniforms. And of course getting to travel around the wrold for a living. I'm now going ot read my book "Sundowners by Lesley Lokko."
Well I'm back to my second home. Yet it feels weird Hamish is fitting in so well but I don't feel as comfortable. I ended up watching a movie on the plane "Fired Up" It was ok but the story line was too obvisious; boy meets girl and likes her, hurt her feelings, she pushes him away and then they end up together.
I showed pictures of my Scott to my cousins, I didn't know how they would react but they said he was cute! Dad's been bragging about Scott too :)
OMG I recieved a text from Scott I was so happy it worked but sadly I can't reply on anyones phone I don't know whats wrong with it. I want to text him so badly and say I can hear you and I love you.
I can't believe how gorwn up my cousins are and I can see that I've grown up too. I can't think straight I'm going to sleep now before I get over tired.
Friday 26th June
My sleep was awful I couldn't stop sneezing and I coudn't breathe right. :(
I've only had a shower and breaky and I'm already stuffed. I don't feel well. All my aunties are over to tea and a chat. Today the weather is bearable but still very hot. The shower was good, refeshing but I forgot how hard it is to use. You have a big bucket of hot water then you use a small bowl to pour it over yourself. I still don't think I got all the shampoo out :(
I feel sick! I don't know how to get better, think I'll go into town and get some bottled water.
Me, Dad and Hamish went to Nadi. When we went into a pohne shop a boy followed us. I didn't think anything of it until he started to beg for money to feed his family he said, he only looked 11years old. He didn't stop begin until he got his way. I hated hearing his pain and sadness in his whine. But the is reality! Reality is what it shouldn't be though hey? Why does a man in a $200,000 car drive past a woman with her ifant sit on the path begging for hope?
It doesn't seem right to me and the world ignores it, that man will go on with his day and life. And that baby will be dead before it's 5th birthday.
So that's reality? That's awful.
When we drove from home to Nadi we saw a native walking and we picked him up. And took him to the shop that would have taken him a hour to walk to. It was truly rewarding. He said " Thank you, thank you, god bless you." Beautiful.
Aim: To eat with hands for this trip.
Just had t it was so good. Argh need to loss weight shouldn't have eaten so much.
My breathing was so bad today, I know my breathing is loud and I hate it but I can't help it. Hopefully it'll be better tomorrow.
Argh so over family pinching my cheeks and arms but that's like a normal thing they do, but argh painful. And yes I've told my cousins so stop but they don't.
Omg when we were driving in town we saw my oldest cousin Shelvin. It was so good to see him, we got a park and I ran to hug him but of course I ran too fast and ended up stepping on his toes. Sorry. He's so tall and older.
Dad just taught my cousin to play 52 pickup, how mean.
Saturday 27th June
Today I woke up at 8:30, it was good because it wasn't that hot then. I just gt straight in the shower.
Then me, Hamish, mum, dad, Sibo (youngest cousin) and her mum Sabina went in the same car, and nobody wears seatbelts in the back.
I got Scott some guy's purfume. but I'll give it to him for xmas os something.
I saw Shelvin and Douglas down the street.
When we got back to the house I took some photos of some natives and flowers. I also took some of some kids and then showed them the picturesthey loved it, oh thank you for digital.
We went ot Nishwant's for t it was fun. I mainly took photos of the kids as they played. Nishwant even caught a gecko for me so I could take a picture and my nana (grandpa) caught a cane toad, he picked it up by the foot. We played this board game, can't remember the name though. I'll find out.
Onteeka (Cousin) wanted to play with me all night it killed me too much running around. But it was good to spend time with family.
Also had a nap today, I feel so lazy yet tired here.
I'll right more later or tomorrow I'm sick.

Fiji the Begining
Omg I'm in fiji. The weather is beautilful. I'm loving it.! The flight over was great, I love clouds. I was sick the first couple of days :( thought I had swine flu :( But I don't I all good now. I went to the best with family yesterday it was so warm and fun. Argh I don't want to leave my family again.
I broke down yesterday and cried, I saw a happy couple and it made me think of Scott. Fiji is not a good place to be when your missing your other half.
I've been able to text him which has been good but I don't often. I called him saturday night and he spoke to my cousi, they were both so nervous it was cute. Scott just said hey at the start not game enough to say his name incase he got it wrong. :) what a cutie.
I've been keeping a diary of what I do each day, that I'll re type into my blog when I get home. We get to melbourne late so we're staying at a hotel which I'll use the internet there.
I'm missing all friends and family and Scott.
I'll talk soon Annalisa the very hot

Weekendness
Well I had the most amazing weekend. Spent Friday and Saturday with family friends and Sunday I stayed at Scott's. It was so good. We watched telly and went on the motor bikes. But I got scared before we went for our big ride so I just went around the house and paddock.
I'm going to miss Scott so much when I go to Fiji. We've spent a long period of time apart before but not over different countries.
He was at school Monday which was good we had a good time together and ate too much chocolate sort of food. :) He makes me smile so muchly. :-) Argh I'm going to miss my sexy, funny, hot, amazing, smart boyfriend.
Annalisa the holiday worthy?

Fiji Soon
In 9 days I'll be on the plane to Fiji, I can't wait. It's a four hour flight there and a five hour flight back. I think the flight there is at 9am but I'm not sure. It'll be so good to see my family over there after 3 years. I think I'll be there for 15 to 17 days. I'll be sun baking while Scott is going to be working in the rain. I'm going to be so sad without him. I miss him already and I haven't even left yet.
I think I'll get a Fiji sim card so I can still text him which will be good but I think it's expensive to text over seas but I'm not sure.
I'm hoping to take some great photos these holiday which should be good. :) Can't wait to post them up here. I'l try my hardest to get to a internet cafe of something. I think I'll get my hair braided and platted.
I last post before I go on holidays will be on the 24 of June. I'll miss you guys too!

My Day So Far
Last night was goood my couisin's family friends came over. And they watched the rugby, I'm not much of a rugby fun myself so I watched a movie.
Today we went to town Eu and done some shopping it was great. I got some clothes for Fiji, four books, ( yes i know I got too many but I couldn't choose), lip stuff, and some other little things. We also went to the lolly shop, argh I fell in love. So much to eat, such a little tummy.
I missing Scott, he's working today. I hate not being able to text him. I was want to hold him and read what he has to say. Can't wait till I can see him again. Have to wait till Wednesday.

Fiji My Family
Wow it's raining like crazy. Really pouring like mad. The water is over flowing the gutter around the roof, massive puddles everywhere. Poor Tania and Craig had to ride their horses back home. They are also coming out for t with us tonight and their daughter sara.
I don't think we'll be having any warm weather for a while but lets hope I'm wrong :)
I was hoping the weather would be good tomorrow so I could go out with Canadain Photographer that I met at camera club. But I guess it'll have to wait for another time. :( I want to go out a take some pictures with him so I can learn some more with my photography before I go to Fiji at the end of June :)
I can't wait. We only go over there every couple of years so I thought it would be good to get some tips from a professional, so I can take the best pictures possible while I'm in Fiji.
I can't wait to see all my cousins again. It's so hard only seeing them every couple of years, I miss out on seeing them grow up.
Last time I went to school for half a day with my aunty as she had to go to parent teacher interviews. The teachers were so mean and rude to their students. I was actually scared and happy to leave after only a couple of hours. But when I go over there next I would like to go to school again for a full day to actually learn and take the classes. I will go to the high school though and with my favourite cousin David. His name is the only english one of all my cousins. I miss him. We are very close, well we are when I ever get to see him. We're always having fun and we're always together. My far away best friend.
I miss my Fiji family so much.
