the days just keep flying by faster and faster. my companion is so wonderful, we have the best relationship, its so funny. this week we went on splits with brazilian missionaries and taught lessons to other companionships. i was actually surprised and how well i could keep up with her! i talked a lot in the lesson and the words come to me a lot quicker now. i have to think super hard when i talk, but still! im communicating!
this week i got a calling!!! they asked me to be the sister training leader which is basically a fancy way of saying welcome commitee but im really excited to get to know all of the new sisters.
elder holland´s grandson is also here and i met him, he looked remarkably like his grandpa. like way more than i do. duh. but it´s so funny he hates how that´s all people talk about. super nice kid.
our district is so much FUN. we´re all super close now. me, elder bloom, AND elder draper all have the same birthday and are the oldest of 4 kids!!!!! wahaaaaa
but we´re still a little crazy. one of our irmas asked to be moved to a different district because she couldnt handle us hahha but she still loves us and leaves us chocolate in our desks. and now the next instructor irmo diego is in the hospital hahah we´re going through teachers like it´s nanny mcphee.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN ALSO!
we spent it eating so much brasilian candy and studying and some asked if he could borrow my glasses to be harry potter because he had a gryffindor tie. everyone has been wearing them around, it´s really funny. also that night the brasilian girls in our room stuck their launfry basket out the window to catch falling candy from the elder´s room two stories up. hahahhah it was so funny
this sunday someone volunteered me and my companion and this other guy to sing a song for the missionary conference or something?!?!?? so idk i let you guys know how that goes haha
missionary work is so hard and i know im not even in the thick of it yet, but i am just so happy to do it! our savior has sacrificed so much. and having a year and a half to completely dedicate myself to this work is an incredible experience. DOM DE LINGUAS is real!!!!
i am growing so much every day in the language and spiritually. this place is SO chill (for an MTC) and the food is awesome and i love all the people so much!!! i think about you guys every single day and LOVE hearing from you!!!!
