Not too much happened this week.
Once you fall into a normal schedule everything gets pretty
repetitive. But it is weird how time
still flies by. My leave date for Ukraine
is August 4. Only seven more
weeks!
The funniest thing that happened this week was probably when we were
teaching a new "investigator."
We were trying to explain what a prophet is, well our investigator asked
if he only was a prophet for America, Sister Johnson and I were looking in a
dictionary to find out how to say travels.
While we were doing this we didn't notice that Sister Mathews thought
that she could get the point across by flapping her arms like a bird. Needless to say, our investigator wasn't very
interested in getting baptized. Oh the
joys of Russian.
We had to move dorms because all the Spanish speakers invaded our
building. We tried to challenge them to
a game a volleyball saying the winners got to stay and the losers had to move,
but you're not allowed to keep score so that didn't really work. Anyways, as I was trekking across the MTC
campus with my three suitcases I became painfully aware of how much I packed. Luckily I still have some time here before I
figure out what I will have to get rid of before I leave for Ukraine! But our new dorms are very nice and very new. I guess the jokes on the Spanish speakers
now.
Quote of the week: "Work, work, work - there's no
satisfactory substitute."
It's SO true. If you want to
be successful, powerful, or different in life then you have to do things normal
people don't do. You have to get up when
people don't get up, work when people don't work. Being great isn't easy, that's why so few
people are. The personal satisfaction that
comes from working your butt off is irreplaceable.
I hope you all have a wonderful, wonderful week!
Much love,
xoxo
