Lame Email Is Better Than No Email Right?

add gas leak to list of things wrong with our apartment.  Had exhanges with hermana demordaunt!!! It was so awesome and shes so fun and such a good missionary. I was highkey super nervous cause id never led out my area before! And we were having 2 lessons to put people on date. No pressure or anything. I was sure i was going to screw everything up. Nothing that day went according to plan but it was fun and our friends are successfully on date! And hermana demordaunt teaches the people who speak mixteco! So i learned some cool things in mixteco. Mixteco is wild and doesnt sound anything like spanish  Taniku - hola Ava'a - cómo estás?  Va'a va - estoy bien Ndu'u ku na misionera nu Ve'e ñu'u ra jesucristo - soy una misionera de la iglesia de jesucristo Ve'e ñu'u ra jesucristo nu na íí nuu kivi ñe ndi'i - The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints I met some people who just moved from uganda this week! Their house was full of art and things they brought...

K our microwave is now broken too!  but im just counting my blessings that we still have things that do work like our shower and fridge and stove! So knock on wood nothing else goes!  Anyways nothing much has happened this week except a lot of disappointment (kidding everythings great lol) but this next week is gonna be so so good i can feel it!!!  Oh also ive decided to do no sugar till easter (its only been a few days and i hate it). Anyways one day my companion was like "girl just break your goal you look like you need sugar" gee thanks hermana  I dont really have much else to update about except this transfer has really been kicking my butt spanish wise and ive spent a lot of days feeling really inadequate and wondering if i can do this. Cause even though God keeps telling me and reminding me i can, satans working just as hard to make me feel like i cant. Anyways my mtc teacher sent me this really good story thats helped me a ton so itll be my spiritual thou...

Just Like A General Authority

hiiiii i have like no time but tons of pics so  Also my emails being weird so you might get this twice and like super late but idk why anyways Highlight reel - zone conference!! Literally was so fun and awesome to see all the other missionaries - Spoke in church again (english this time) and i have to speak twice next week. "Memorize your talk. Give your talk JUST like a general authority. Do you think President Eyring has something to read from? No he doesn't." (He literally does its called a teleprompter) - our 2nd counselor - randy the maintenance guy came to fix our heater (such a sweetheart we love randy) but its still not fixed and i dont really know why - our apartment is slowly falling apart. Heater doesnt work, oven stopped working, and our power went out this morning. So we had to move the fridge to the one working outlet  - we can literally see our breath in the morning its so cold - We worked SO HARD this week and absolutely trippled our efforts there, found s...

What is up party people?! What's new with you? What's been going on in the real world?? Someone send me a taylorswift update pls. Alright I guess ill tell you about what I've been up to   Our mission president has asked me and my companion to have an english fast the rest of the transfer. So ive spent most of this week saying little to nothing which is driving me crazy  Its been raining a ton here! And its funny cause people always cancel on us when its raining and they always say "well we dont want to make you walk in the rain" but what they dont realize is if they cancel we still have to walk in the rain to find other people to teach! Except now we're getting insane storm warnings! And our heater (and oven) broke so ive spent basically any chance I get curled up by our little 1 foot heater that a member gave us. And I sleep with like 3 sweatshirts and 2 pairs of socks on. But my companion sleeps in shorts. Met lots of really cool people to start teaching thi...
