well up until next week friday it will be 3 complete months that i've been in australia.3 months might not seem like such a long time but wen u half way around the world from the place u call home the days seem moa like weeks n the weeks years.wen i left i thought that i'd return to the same place, the same faces n eveyfing else unchanged...boy was i wrong! within the first two months that i've been hia 2 of my family members have died n just today i find out there is another death.of all these the 1 that really got me thinking was the death of my cousin Freddy.i neva really knew him that well n now that his gone i'll neva really be able to noe who he was as person.hi's n bye's were basically the only form of acknowledgement that we'd give each other.lukin back,i wish i had taken the time to noe him for who he was,his dreams n all the rest of the things that were imortant to him in life. its sad that we only really notice the stuff in life that really count after they're gone.i'm off home to fiji on friday next week n i hope that i'll be able to literally stop n smell the roses n take in as much as possible...
