Been awhile!
Hello fam and assorted friends So, one of these transfers I will let you know ahead of time that the next week is transfer week, probably. This week was a fun one, but it feels like I’ve spent most of the week on splits and NOT with my assigned companion!

Monday (月 Getsu 曜日yobi):
Monday, pretty normal Pday except for this evening. I went on 巡回 (junkai - patrol / splits) with Elder Campbell and it was a blast! We were able to talk to some WAY cool people.
I got a little upset at an Elder but I put it all back before he got home

*Note from Dad*
We asked Spencer, “Why were you upset with the elder? And why is the betting in the bathroom a way to handle that?” He informed us that “We had been doing a series of pranks. The elder flipped my bike upside down so, I stuffed his bedding in the toilet room”
We asked about a “Toilet room” and he said, “It makes way more sense to call it a toilet room rather than a bathroom. I wonder why we call it a bathroom instead of a toilet room”
Tuesday (火 Moku 曜日yobi):
Today was a continuation of yesterday's 巡回 (junkai - patrol / splits) and DM (district meeting), the last one before the transfer calls. Today ended with me and Elder Campbell walking around all afternoon and not talking to a single person because NO ONE was home. We got back to the apartment then hopped on a train to Kagoshima for 巡回 (junkai - patrol / splits) with the ZLs (Zone Leaders).
Wednesday (水 Sui 曜日yobi):
I went on splits with my Zone Leader Elder Woolston and we had a blast. It rained all day and I didn't have a ton of rain gear, but it was okay because we walked all day. We had a lesson with a guy that the 姉妹たち (Shimai tachi - Sisters) where passing over to the elders and that was cool.

Thursday (木 Moku 曜日yobi):
We got home in the morning and that was a blessing to be back. We had another lesson with Mikiさん (san - “Mrs”) and this time Elder Chadwick distracted Yuuくん (kun - like saying “Mr.” but for young boy) while I read the BOM with her, it was a pretty good lesson. Then we had weekly planning and Eikaiwa . Friday, kid's Eikaiwa (English conversation class), that is always WAY fun and the kids are hilarious. We also tried to visit some other people but no one was home.

Friday (金 Kin 曜日yobi):
(nothing to report)
Saturday (土 do 曜日yobi):
We went to sports night but no one was there and somehow we got wrapped up in playing with a ton of little kids, it was great. Before I joined in I was talking with one of the dads and he was way cool, didn't really have interesting but he was cool to talk with. Then our lesson with Madoka姉妹 (Shimai - sister) and it went well, I messed up a little and accidentally did a part too early but it went well.
we're just a bunch of weirdos

Sunday (日 nichi 曜日yobi):
Sunday, Madoka姉妹 (Shimai - sister) came to church!! Also I had a talk that I didn't bomb. Then Aoki姉妹 (Shimai - sister) surprised us by having us come over for lunch and it went a bit long but, we were able to share a small spiritual message. Then we all hit a physical and mental wall and we were all tired. Elder Chadwick had it probably the sorest out of all of us. He had to keep on talking breaks during 伝道 (Dendo - tracking) but, we were able to find a cool guy who already had a BOM and we talked with him for a little bit.
Monday (月 Getsu 曜日yobi):
Sad Monday, it was sad because we are all exhausted. We didn't 伝道 (Dendo - tracking) a ton because we talked a lot and bought some snacks in hope of it helping. In the evening we did a small 巡回 (junkai - patrol / splits) so we could go to a Return Appointment and a lesson with a Less Active, I went to the RA and sadly he wasn't there but what I heard about the lesson with the LA is that it went well. Since it is the transfer Pday, we found who is staying or leaving, I have no actual idea but, I'm pretty sure I'm leaving.
