Kumusta pamilya!
For
some reason the at key isn´t working so I have to write the family
through yours. Again, emails would be much appreciated. The keyboards
here are way screwed up.
Anyways, I wrote you guys a letter about the first day. You should get it soon. Sorry about the messy handwriting.
Life over here is good. My
kasama is Sister T and she is so sweet and funny. She´s a planner
and I´m definitely not so she´s very good for me. Learning the language
is a lot of fun but it´s also very frustrating. We taught our first
investigator last night. I know, three days in and they´re already
trying to make us teach people. It didn´t go too badly but it could have
gone way better.
I´m living in a room with 5
other girls. They´re a lot of fun but there´s so much estrogen in the
room that sometimes it´s hard to breathe. They all look perfect and make
me feel like I´m so underdressed all the time. Oh well. They´re pretty
crazy. We´re all going to Olongapo and we´re all so excited.
Um what else.... Our guro is Brother C. He´s so funny and he likes to laugh at us a lot but he´s a great teacher.
The
food over here is sooooo good. Every single meal we all eat until we´re
stuffed and then we kind of just want to sink into a food coma but of
course we can´t cuz we have to go straight to class.
It´s not as hard to stick to
the schedule and be obedient because we´ve pretty much been thrown into
missionary life. We don´t need to worry about all the rules and stuff
because they´re so easy to follow, which is super nice.
Everyone here is so nice. We
finally got to take our dork dots off our nametags on the second day. Everyone around us on the first day kept yelling at us and welcoming us
to the MTC. Everyone is so happy to be here.
I´m not sure what else to tell
you guys... It´s crazy over here but so fun and it´s such a great
environment. We get to go to the temple today and that should be fun. It
sounds so relaxing. Last night was really funny because we were all so
exhausted that we´d hit the breaking point and we were laughing at
EVERYTHING. It was hilarious.
Oh, there´s some stuff that it
would be really nice of you guys to send me... I need a jacket, like a
sweatshirt, like my Encore one maybe. And I forgot my white cardigan
that Mom and I bought the other day. Oh and a blanket like my robot one
and my pillow, if you can fit it into a box. And if you can find my
Batman shirt, I´d really like that too please
Anyways, life is good.
Hopefully we´ll get our mail tomorrow but right now I´m feeling very
neglected because no one emailed me...
Okey dokey, have to go prepare
for the second discussion with my kasama now. We have it tonight. A bit
nervous but I know that we have the Espiritu Santo with us and he will
guide us and make sure that we come out of this ok. Oh! and tomorrow is
the broadcast. We get to go be there. All of us. I am soooooo excited.
Look for me on the big screen
Life is so crazy over here. But
I know that this is where I am supposed to be. No more sitting on the
computer watching Netflix movies. I´ve been reading the scriptures
nonstop. I´m gonna finish it again before I leave. I´m already in Alma.
It´s so great.
Ok I´m done. Be good guys. Don´t be dumb. Miss you and Love you!
Paalam!
Sister Hess
