BULA!

TJ and I have just booked flights to Fiji for a short holiday. It should be interesting telling my parents considering the conversation I had with my mother a week ago.

Mum: "So are you still going to go on holidays?"

Me: "Yeah...I was thinking about Fiji or the Whitsundays..."

Mum: "Fiji??? No. You're not allowed to go to Fiji. You're not going there. You had better go to the Whitsundays. Are you going alone? A girl travelling alone...it's not safe."

Me: "I was, but TJ wants to come."

Mum: "What??? You're going with TJ??? .....You had better have him around for dinner so I can meet him...He might take advantage of you."

Me: (Silence....If I speak my head may explode and then she would complain about the mess.)
