!!! A TONGAN FEAST !!!

Image
Hola muchas cosas están sucediendo.  First off had quite a few really good lessons this week which has been great. Soccer last p day was really fun too. Tongans really love pickleball, they are always playing at the church but it is a fun game. There was a funeral for one of the Spanish group member's son Cristian. The chapel was literally full and there was still more peeps. It was fuego and then had some good Hispanic food and then right after also had a member meal (that was not nearly as good). Then played some games with our recent convert and her roommate with the señor couple.  Church was fuego today, it was our ward conference and I blessed the sacrament en español like always and we had 2 friends pull up and one gas told us he wants to be a member and the other we met for the first time and after our little lesson with him he wanted to be baptized so he can be ready to meet God. He's absolutely elect and great. Then had a Tongan Feast, no joke literally a feast. Wish ...

Lock Your Doors

Hola hola todos qué pasando Got another supply drop this week from my mom which was very not needed but very wanted. It's been kinda a rough week/month but not all bad.  The other day had a mentor sesh and the weekly goal is literally to pretend to want to talk to people. All of ya'll should know that I don't really like talking to peeps and am pretty reserved. But that's the goal and right after found 2 new peeps and taught them. It was pretty much the first lesson I've actively participated in more than half the lesson ish.        Read a little kid a really wierd Book about some cows or something the other day. Tensions are getting kinda high in our apartments with the other companionship and mine too, I kinda just try to do other things on my own like read the BofM or get my Duolingo xp in. It kinda sucks a lot some days but there are tons of tender mercies.      Got some new shoes and a new tie too that are pretty nice. Attended a baptism for ...

Naranjas, Muchas Naranjas

Hola everybody. ¿Que tal? Muchos buenas días y muchas dias difíciles. Pero todo está bien. Recibimos muchas naranjas de un miembro del nuestro barrio y también unos de un amigo. Around 10ish total. Tenemos un reunión con la presidencia de la estaca sobre la obra de miembros which was good. También tenemos zone conference el viernes which was muy bien y recibí muchas cosas que necesito improve on.  One of our good friend's daughter's b-day party was Saturday and it was crazy how all out her parents went. It was pretty cool, had a bouncy castle thing in their apartment and feed us a lot of snacks.  I am still on track to finishing the BofM within this transfer. So 1 BofM in 6 weeks which has been pretty great def read the BofM as often as you guys can.  Tenemos muchos buenos amigos en la semana pasado que fueron muy simpático. This last week I have also been making fried rice quite a bit and it has been so good and pretty simple which is great for Mish life. Went on bike ex...

Its Only 3am???

Funny story... So Thursday morning my blood sugar was low at around 3 and somehow I thought my comps alarm went off so I got out of bed to pray, then checked my phone and it was 3am and my blood sugar was 40 so went and got some candy. Got a bloody nose too but when I walked back to the room my comp was getting out of bed to pary thinking it was 6:30 and time to go play basketball. But I told him it was 3 and he was so confused and then we went back to bed. Same thing happened the next day but at 1am.      My bowling last tuesday was nowhere near as good as the week before but still broke 100. Tracked into this amazing Columbian couple on wednesday and taught them for a little and they are just great.   I am trying to have discipline like president Nelson. Entonces I have started to eat one single blue sour punch straw each day and it is so difficult not to eat the whole thing in one go. But it will be worth it.    Had some really good arepas from our frien...
