Missed Connection with Fiji

30 minutes ago there was a really good chance that I would be flying to Fiji on Saturday. Here's the story:

The account I work on is Marriott Hawaii. We do all their advertising and collateral for the hotels, resorts and vacation ownership properties here on the islands. Marriott Fiji called the agency a few weeks ago and asked us to send a proposal to do work for the hotel they're constructing at Momi Bay in Fiji. Crazy cool, huh? I kept pushing my way into the project and yesterday my boss comes by to ask if I have a passport because he thinks it "makes sense" for me to accompany him to Sydney and Fiji. Hooray, hooray, hooray!!! Alas, the client can't commit to working with us yet so a departure on Saturday isn't going to happen. There's still hope that it might work out in the future but I'm not going to get my hopes up.

Hope your week has been filled with fun surprises too!

Aloha,
Jenni
