FIJI'S BULA SPIRIT
It's the simple things in life that bring out the Bula Joy. Not the coolest toys or gadgets, simply enjoying this fresh and flowing water of the Vanua (land) on a Saturday afternoon with your friends, while judging who has the best dive into the water.

    All my life I've been asking the question " why did my parents come to this DAMN country (United States), why didn't we remain in our beloved Fiji? I still ask that question till this day. America is nothing but shit, all this racism and prejudice from these damn hillbillies, rednecks and hicks listening to their country western shit! Long live and God Bless my Fiji!

    The year was 1976 and as a young 14-year-old MBHS student I bought peanuts and beans from him at the Suva bus stand. I am now 60 and he is still selling beans...He was young back then with a ponytail and today 2022 he is still going strong....wow what a lesson in life for everyone.
