Bula, Bula, Bula!

I'M GOING TO FIJI!!!

Here's the story of how it began...

Once upon a time there lived a little gal,
She loved lots of things, this girl named Mal.
She loved laughing and joking, helping and working,
Skiing and running, dancing and jerking.
She loved learning and school and dreaming dreams.
She dreamed of places to go and doing great things.

As a little girl, she dreamed of BYU,
And guess what, guys? Her dream came true!
And what a dream it turned out to be,
A happier place, she never did see.
She felt so lucky, blessed, happy, and right.
Surrounded by friends and learning and light.
But now what she had been dreaming for so long,
Was here and reality, her dream was gone.

So what do you do when your dream comes true?
You go find another one and dream anew!
So this little girl set her sights high,
She decided she wanted to try and fly.
She wanted to travel and help those in need,
She wanted to make a difference through kindly deed!
So she searched and thought and asked around,
Until finally, at last, her new dream was found!

HELP International was created to empower,
Fighting poverty, developing programs, hour by hour,
They help many countries, from Uganda to Belize,
But Mallory chose Fiji so she wouldn't freeze.
Making gardens and stoves, or working in a school,
Or helping at a hospital, it would be so cool!
HELP International was highly recommended,
She felt so right, her search had ended.

With her new dream in sight, she took it and ran.
Working hard and saving and making a plan.

(This has been my laptop background for the past year...except I will be working, not laying in a hammock. :D)

She put up reminders of her new goal,
She wanted to dedicate her heart and soul.
She attended trainings and met new friends.
It was becoming so real, not just pretend!

On the fifth of May, year two-zero-one-one,
Mallory will be off to the Land of the Sun.
There she will work and help and love,
Fulfilling all that she has dreamed of.
Sacrificing money and talent and time,
But gaining more than expressed through this rhyme.
Learning of service, culture, and dreams,
Is worth more than anything else, it seems.
