Life in a Nutshell

Week 4 - July 23, 2015 This is actually my district! I wasn't able to send it last time! (: Elderes Jeffery, Porter, Smart, Price, Smith, and Yugawa and Hna. Andrus, Wynne, Oliver and myself (: Ovio. Trio for Life ‏ This last week started off in a possible trioship. And stayed that way. One of the Hermana's had to go home, unfortunately. We absolutely love her! But that made it so we gained another Hermana in our companionship. It was hard to begin with because she can speak spanish rather well but it's okay now and she is such a help to have in our communication! I had a friend point out this past week that I seem to have changed a bit and I hope I have! I was thinking about change a lot this past week because of my friend's comment, because of the Hna that went home and becoming a trio, my past experiences, and because of hard times and how I look back on them and am grateful for how they have helped me to shape my life in better ways. Of cou...

Passed Hump Day Squared Week 3 - July 16, 2015 Yesterday was Wednesday which you all know is hump day, AND it was my three week mark here at the lovely MTC, which was the hump of my MTC experience! Holla! Hardest day of my life. Okay... not really, but yesterday was a struggle. My companionship gained a new sister, who is fantastic but that meant her companion left, for now. One of our sisters has been sick and let's just say she had to be sent up to SLC for further work. She was severely anemic and so she needs some blood transfusions, I hope we get her back, but I'm doubting she will come back because of the whole situation. It's really unfortunate! I loved this sister so much! She is incredible and such an inspiration! Experience time! Wow! I'm learning so much! Okay, so Sunday we were in District meeting and I had made a comment on the power of obedience and the blessings it brings. Well about ten minutes later I realized how uncomfortable I was in the ski...

One of my first bio summaries from July 7th in all of my broken Spanish. Claro el azul camina es lo mejor Made me happy (: Everything is Awesome! But that doesn't mean it's easy.  Week 2 - July 9, 2015 Hey you all! Wow, has it already been a week? I swear last Thursday was an eternity ago! Haha seriously, time is really weird here. The days can be super fast and then the weeks eternity but then you look back and are like ...What??? Haha it's great though! This week was a bit harder than last but there was wonderful things everyday that makes everything worth it! I feel like my Spanish just is NOT coming, but then I remember how I couldn't understand almost anything with our native Spanish speaking investigator, Victor, just last week and now I understand almost everything he says (well.... at least the gist of it), and I can respond pretty well which is. INCREDIBLE! Wow! Only 2 weeks and I can teach a lesson in Spanish. It's not my ...

Me and My companera! I'm Like a Missionary... This is SO cool!‏ Hey Family and Friends! My p-day is today and I'm so grateful it is finally here!!! Wow, I was like running out of clothes. Anyways, this past week was eternally long yet it was the fastest week of my life. The MTC really does something weird to your view of time, and it's not something you can really explain or understand unless you have experienced it... so I highly suggest trying the mission thing out if you haven't already. (: So my companion is Hermana Oliver from far far away on Sandy, UT plains and is going far far away to Twin Falls, ID plains, Spanish speaking... haha crazy-zay! Anyways, she is wonderful! It's crazy how many things we do in sync. Like we are both indecisive, we both shower for the same amount of time, we have the same routine in the mornings, and seriously I just absolutely LOVE her!!! She is the best companion for me that I could have in the MTC! And we both ...
