Soo sorry for the late email, today is actually our pday because we were able to go to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple(I dont know how to spell it)!!! It was so fun and beautiful of course! Things have been getting kinda busy, so it was good to escape for a little bit....
but lemme just say that if i had to express how i feel right now is if u remixed arianda grande's song and change it to "I love the way the gospel makes me feel, i love it...i love it..." bahahah ive just been singing that lately because ya know the struggle is too real with no radio so whenever we go to the store i try to jam out when i can...like for instance we were at a member's home the other day and their son was playing demons on the piano and i was just like WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! are u kiddin me right now?! thats da kuuuuuuut! And also i heard beyonce's halo and i was tryin to compare it to how it relates to the gospel but it didnt really work...
so remember when i said that we had a pro photographer take our pic for the flyers?? weeeel one of the members who was in charge of it sent it to her son because of me... bc she wants to set me up with him... uhhh i meaaaan im honored but kinda like aca awkward at the same time...like u know how i was ALWAYS awkward around the brothaaas growing up?? i feel like im EEEEVEN more awkward every day on the mission...like for instance this brothaa around my age sat by me in sacrament meeting and i was like uhh this is weird...i wasnt used to it... but yah so after the mish should be interesting....
so as u can tell, so far i have survived riding on the bike and its a MIRACLE!!!! realk talk doe, like wow i survived!
so apparently i have a problem with saying too many slang words, so my companion and i decided to help me stop saying things by each term i say, i have to do a push up in the mornings..lets just say, im getting pretty fit.... bahaha but omggg i realllllly miss eating rice..:( its not the same... im like in rice withdrawls....
and do u know what else is killin me?? the ppl we are staying with have cheetah girls 1 and 2 and its SUCH a temptation to watch!!! but its okay just a trial of faith right????
haha so in personal study, ive been reading in 1 nephi and i wonder if he was a rapper naww mean??? just check out 1 nephi 17:45....ya feel me?? lmk what u think lol
but i had my first lesson last week too! it was INTENSE! the brother we were teaching isnt a member and he is known for kicking missionaries outta his home but we stayed for 2 hrs and made another appt for today and a dinner appt this sunday! i was SOO NERVOUS but it sounded like it worked out! aaaaand it was soo cute bc at dinner last night, they had this 5 yr old son and he was just the cutest! he asked if i could sit by him at dinner and he made coloring books and drawings for me and told me that i was his favorite...i was soo honored but my companion wasnt too happy..haha ill send u a pic lataaa!
so ive realized that i need to learn spanish! ppl automatically think i speak spanish and im like lo siento!! BUT AFTER THE MISSION IM DETERMINED TO LEARN SOME ESPANOL!
omg so the other day byu had a big bball game apparently and this brother asked me if i knew what byu was??? I WAS LIKE UHHH IM AMERICAN??? i know im brown but lets be real.... lol it was funny....
so this past saturday was our first baptism and it was just amazing! ill send u a pic! she is just the cutest girl and already decided that she wants to serve a mission and go to the temple! it was just an amazing experience bc she had so many ppl there and most werent members that we had to move to the chapel! it was just off da chain!! #baptism lol
but everything has been amazing! but ive also noticed that as missionaries, you SPEAK A BUNCH! we are responsible for 7 wards and its just crazy busy with ppl wanting us to teach and speak! i dont eeeeven know what im doing still lol
whenever its cold, it makes me miss hawaii even more but i know that my home is utah for now...like some ppl think that theres no work to do in utah but THERES SO MUCH! its just so awesome to see how the gospel changes lives. I know that each day it is changing mine and i love every minute of it! update me!!! tell me EVERYTHING! i love and miss you!!!! tell everyone hi for me! eats some rice for me! :)
