Hello Dearest family of mine!!!!
How are yalls doing!!! I am just doing oh so so good this
week! (funny that I seem to say that every week)... sooooo.... I am heading out
to the Philippines next week!!!! 4:30 AM!!! I am just too pumped to get on that
plane and start flying out! I cant wait to finally hit some heat! Not to
mention, I am excited to try the bucket brigade for the shower... "That's
new..." -Princess and the Frog. Its gonna be so tight! well, basically my
week consisted of, hey! A ton of Tagalog! Which is super awesome, i fell like I
am starting to get it a bit. I don't speak like a native, but i can throw it
down when I need to! So the new district that we got this week is super tight.
And to think, that was me not very long ago, and I am already heading out!!!
Its crazy! And super awesome!! I know the investigators here are fake, but I
was super pleased, we had a lesson that was falling apart, and then we went on
to something completely different and then ended up committing her to baptism!
it was pretty dope! So, cool story, I accidentally just deleted the email, but
this ldsmail stuff is pretty rad, and it saved it for me! So I hit the
un-discard button and it brought it back... Oh, and grandma, the popcorn is going
to good use! Even the janitor that just passed just loves me now. Its pretty
great...
So basically, we learned a lot about the gospel, had a lot
of awesome spiritual experiences, learned a bunch of Tagalog, and listened to
some awesome talks! It was a pretty great week! I am ever so slightly nervous
about headed to the Philippines and getting a new companion, cause my
companions are super dope and I feel like I have known them forever! I'm gonna
be sad to say goodbye to them. They're gonna be awesome missionaries!
hmmm... I forget if this was this week or last week, but in
my brilliance I managed to rip my pants right in front of Brother Danahoo one
of the councilors in our branch presidency (luckily it was in the residence
halls). Luckily, I happen to be immune to embarrassing moments, but now I need
to sow them up. Yay!
its awesome that I get free hair cuts here whenever I want!
So I cut my hair every two weeks. This last time I said to cut it as short as
they are aloud to... I literally said that to them.... and then they started
cutting my hair... my first reaction was, "holy cow! I didn't realize you
could cut it that short!" And then my next reaction was the un-humble one
that I need to work on where I said, "Mmmmmm, that looks good! Dang
son!" Don't worry momma, I didn't say that out loud... But I might have
been thinking it. I like the short hair... anyways, I don't know why people get
sick of the food hear. I enjoy it. The food is different every day, and my go
to that they have every day is the chicken wrap that they have every day...
basically Cafe Rio or subway style... UNREAL!
Haha, so when we picked up the new district, we decided that
at least for the first little bit we wouldn't speak English... you should have
seen how white their faces went!!! Hahaha, they didn't realize how bad the
Tagalog was, all they realized (or thought they realized) is that there zone
leaders were speaking to them in Tagalog and there was no hope that they would
ever understand anybody!!! (evil malicious laugh!) And then we spoke English to
them.. it was fun!
Anyways, it was a super awesome week and I am loving you all
tons!!!! Talk to ya next week! peace out!!!
