Cockroaches and Cannibals

Today was a bizzare day. I found out I am going to Fiji and my leader was a Cannibal before she became a Christian. There are about 50 people on my team(the biggest of the 3 teams.) Most of the time we've been doing orientation. Tonight as we started getting ready for bed, I saw a cockroach for the first time. It was about 4 inches long and really quick. Immediately it ran under our mini fridge and we couldn't find it. So we just put the fridge outside. I hope I don't find it crawling over me tonight. It is kinda freaky really. Tomorrow we will have the whole day free. Not sure what I'm going to do, maybe find a beach or try and get a frisbee game going on. I also found out my address is as follows:

Joel Oliver
University of the Nations
75-5851 Kuakini Hwy #431
Kailua-Kona, HI 96740

oh my. about the cock roaches... the worst part is when you don't see them and you step on them and the crunching noise they make... oh, and when you get to have evening lectures in the pavillion you will find that they frequently fly through the air and sometimes come freakishly close to flying full speed into your head. it can be a thrill. I hope you can avoid the flying cock raches
