SHOUT OUT to two of my favorite people who are turning 20 this week; Hermana Kelsey Lewis and Elder Kahanu Enos! have the best weeks EVER! this means that i'm getting closer to 20.. i want to be 19 forever i've decided.
so this week my life wasn't that funny because i wasn't with my awesome comp that much.. she is one of the leaders of the girls in the mission, so she goes with other hermanas a lot, while i stay with there companions. kinda sucks. so this week i was with this one girl for two days.. KILL ME. no.. i learned lots of patience.. BUT.
SHE DID THE UNFORGIVABLE. like Harry Potter curse unforgivable. she ate... one of my kit kats. i was dying. i only eat those on special occasions. still mad. probably will be my whole mission. like, you don't eat Wilsynn's kit kats. not even in the states when you can drive 3 minutes and get another. but i'm trying to learn forgiveness and take deep breaths.
also this week, a bunch of people were so surprised when they heard that i speak english... like nope. i don't speak english. i just speak spanish like a 4 year old and that's how i've communicated with people my whole life. DUH.
some guy tried to grab my butt when i was with one of the other hermanas this week so that was cool. so i just like moved out of the way like i usually do. but after, the hermana was like, that's why we need to walk faster... uhm ok? so she basically ran to our next appointment and i was like dude. chill. people these days.
also, a guy was walking past me and tried to do the 'pull something out of your ear' magic trick.. and i freaked out cause i had no idea what he was doing and ran about half way into the street. then my comp was like, ''awh, he just wanted to do some magic for you!'' haha oops.
the president of the district (like a stake but smaller) invited us to dinner the other night.. and his wife gave us SO MUCH FOOD. i was dying. like about to throw up trying to finish it. then. she comes out with dessert.. and i'm telling my comp like.. i can't do this. how am i gonna do this? then.. the dessert? made of strawberries. so i got to whip out the ''sorry, i'm allergic'' excuse. it was great. i've never been so thankful to be allergic to strawberries in my life.
so i'm asked lead the music like ALL THE TIME because no one here knows how to do it.. but the worst part? the freakin people don't even look at me. and they do not know how the rhythm of the song goes.. so i'm like waving my hand like a crazy person trying to keep up with them.. it's awful. and the piano is broken so i can't even play that. so music in church.. interesting. mostly because they are pretty much ll tone deaf too. and flat. so all hymns sound like funeral music. hahaha it's great though, i love it.
so had another baptism this week:) a little girl named Marta! she was soooo excited, and it was such an example to me of how excited i wish EVERYONE would be to change their lives and follow the Lord. God's way is hard and the way of the world is easy.. it's something we need to remember. it's gonna be hard to follow the Lord, but we need to remember every day that the blessing far outweigh the difficulty! so i challenge you all to give up whatever in your life that is keeping you from following the Lord, and i PROMISE you will be happier than you ever thought you could be!
Love you all so much!!
mom don't have a panic attack if i don't email you back today, i think the church server is down...
again.. LOVE Y'ALL!
hermana wheat :)
