Hey Everyone!
My 3rd week was great! The language is still going well and I'm still enjoying my time here, but it is going by really really quickly! This week was a little tender because we lost like 21 of the elders from our zone and I'm going to miss them so much. But that's okay, most of them I'll see in about 6 weeks anyway because we all have a celebration for 60 years of the church in Taiwan the week after we get there so all the missionaries will be there! Also we lost our favorite teacher this week to UVU so that was kind of rugged! Bye bye Sister Ochoa.
Things have kind of settled down and I'm pretty used to the way everything works here. This week we did get a new solo missionary companion. His name is Elder Willes, he's from Bountiful. I'm not sure why but his district is just him and another sister missionary so we have to take him with us most of the time but then during class he leaves. It's really weird but oh well, we love having him with us so we just consider him part of our district most of the time.
The Chinese is going so well for me! I love learning it so much. I almost have the first vision memorized now and I love it! The teachers and the spirit are incredible here! I'm glad to hear that you all are doing well too! I can't believe it's already time for school to start! I wish Mom and Devin the best of luck!
I don't really know what else to write about actually, this week has kind of just blurred together. Our district is just like family and I love all of them! Okie dokie! Funny little joke time. In Chinese, hymn book is pronounced almost exactly like "sugar buns"! So we love going room to room asking if the other districts have sugar buns! Hahaha
Love you all! If there's anything you wanna hear about let me know!
