Week 5 Oct 19, 2016

I can't tell if the weeks here are getting longer or shorter but they are fun

Wednesday: After I laundered and emailed I planned sand volleyball
with my zone, so much fun. After that we hung out in the room until
dinner and after that we did TRC. TRC is when you teach RMs to help us
with our teaching and Japanese.

Thursday: wow, my journal says today was boring. We did teach Yoko San
today and it did go super well. I got a book set from home called "The
Book of Mormon made Easier" and it is super cool. The author has some
pretty cool insights about everything.

Friday: celebration, me and Campbell Chōrō memorized all Katagana and
Hirogana. Now its time for the bad news, our lesson with Nakahara San
was pretty bad, it ended well but it did not go well. I got a package
today, Thank you Curtis, Dennis and Curtie, the cupcakes lasted more
than an hour because of exercise time but they where delicious!

Saturday: we had a curve ball thrown at us this morning. We thought
that we were going to be teaching Yoko San in the afternoon, turns out
is was in the morning, but it went well. Today on my B.O.M. Study, I
was reading 1 Nephi 4, and one thing that really stood out to me was
how forgetful Laman and Lemuel were, so as a personal challenge I'm
going to try to journal better.


Here is the Cafe knot I tied Sunday 

Sunday I taught the lesson in our district meeting today, which is
like teaching Sunday school. It went pretty well and the topic was
obedience. Today's special speaker was Vai Sikahema, anyone know him?
All I know is he was raised in Mesa and played football. Other than
that he taught us about using our influence to build up the kingdom.
It was amazing and he had a ton of cool stories.




I love the cloudy weather that Provo has been having.

Monday: family, thank you guys for sending me the little booklet on how to tie ties, sadly I can't have a knot that draws attention, which means I can't do all the fun ones😢. Today was a weird day when we don't have a straight 3 hours of PCL and I hate it. I did play sand volleyball again and it was especially fun because it had rained earlier this morning so that meant, the sand was freezing but it was a fun game.



I SAW MR ANS MRS MOULDING. They are leaving on their mission to Germany this Friday, same one as Elder Bates. Mr, I suppose that its Elder Moulding, informed me that Karen was coming in Wednesday, I hope I get to see her but she is in the MTC for 3 weeks and I am in for 4 more weeks, not fair.

This is on the bulletin for my classroom's building and that is where all the asian language missionaries go.



Tuesday: today was a subarashi day. It started with a 3 hr continues of PCL and that was amazing. I saw the Mouldings during lunch and I ate with them which was super cool. Today was a devo day and my zone helping set up for it, which also means no exercise time😢. We had Lynn G Robbins and his wife come talk to us, Elder Robbins talked to us about loving and how our missions are preparation for marriage.

I am well, I've gained 10 pounds since being here. I'm starting to understand Japanese better but the Gift of Tongues is really. I am enjoying  all of the study and me and the district are getting along pretty well. I've started to read the Book of Mormon in Japanese before bed, I don't know what I'm reading but I hope it helps my Japanese. How are things back home? We don't get any news here, has Trump finally dropped out of the race, if not I'm probable going to be in Japan until he gets impeached.
