HEY!!! Thank you for the package!! I love it all!! So there are these things called "Narnia Holes" and they are just vents or random holes all over the campus where people unscrew them and put treasures in them hahaha so since I can’t bring all of these toys with me to Japan I’ll put a lot in some Narnia holes for future generations to find!
So some things that happened this week. Nelson Choro left for home yesterday. He had a meeting with the branch president and then he left within the hour! That sucked. Our district is so different without him! Also yesterday Elder Stevens left because for the past 2 weeks he has averaged 2 hours of sleep a night. He really really didn’t want to go. But I was also in the room with Hawkins Choro that week because he was sick and while Hawkins was sleeping I went over to his room and shared with him a thought I had. In Alma 37:6-7, my new ponderize scripture, it says that the lord god works by means to bring about his great and eternal purposes. He was commanded to come out here to serve a mission, but maybe God had a different plan for him but he still needed him to show his faith by coming out anyways. We don’t always understand why things happen the way they do but we can trust that if we are doing what we believe is right, he will provide his will in our lives, and his will is always the best.
I loved the package!!! The ties were great because I seriously forgot completely which ties I used to have! I love them. Also the caramel was a great surprise!
18 days left until I leave from here!!!!!!! That is a super humbling crazy thought. The time absolutely flies!
The last few days Hawkins Choro has been sick. Some abdominal pains and some other things. Last night I taught Franks Choro, who is now in my companion ship, with Hawkins Choro, some Japanese Grammar because I can learn straight from books pretty well where as they prefer teacher to student learning, so I taught them some new things I had learned! That was pretty fun. But because he was sick, Franks Choro and He went to the hospital this morning pretty early to get an ultra sound to see if they could find any obvious things wrong. There was none. But I didn't go with them because I had my piano audition at 10:40! So I stayed with Gatherum Choro, whose birthday was today, and Stacey Choro, whose birthday wasn't today. I waited for the audition in the hall and talked to this lady for about 10 minutes. She actually knew where Mountain Home was!!! Seriously the first person I've met, other than Bachman Choro from Eagle Idaho, who knew where Mtn Home is. Then I auditioned in front of the MTC Presidency's wives, and they LOVED my song!!!! They asked if I was a piano major and I said no, obviously, but they asked me a bunch of questions about how long I have been playing and what not. So that was a good feeling :) They also asked if I would be willing to be added to the accompanist list, like if people need an accompanist for a song or something of that sort, but I said I would love too but It’s hard for me to learn songs as quickly as they would need me to. She was glad I was honest because apparently they've had people in the past say yes, but then just couldn't hold up to it. Then they gave me a 'yes' paper and said that if they want me to play they will send me a letter on a Friday and it will say if I play on Tuesday or Wednesday. Also if I didn't get the letter tomorrow, they could still, and probably will, send it next Friday because I’ll be here longer. So I’m pretty excited! I’m hoping that I’ll get to play in front of an apostle!
Well there isn't much else I can think of to say but I love you all so much!!
