I'm actually doing really good, I just didn't know what to put for the subject.
This week was pretty good, busy as always. A couple of significant things that happened this week:
We had our last Preach My Gospel class (where we learn how to teach others), now we have two Spanish classes a day, and it's a lot. I feel like my Spanish has really improved though! I mean, I still have a long way to go, but it's pretty good.
On Friday, the bag I use to carry around all my books broke. The shoulder strap snapped off and I couldn't fix it, so I had to carry my bag around without the strap until Monday because the tienda is closed on the weekends. It was pretty miserable, but I have a new bag now.
The brother of one of our MTC teachers got baptized last Sunday, so we recorded a video of our district singing "When I am Baptized" in spanish and they played it at his baptism!
We had a power outage during dinner on Wednesday, and it was actually pretty cool! We were just sitting in the cafeteria and all of a sudden the lights went off. There was no warning or anything! They were out for about 20 minutes, and it was kind of fun!
Other than that, it was just business as usual. Lots of classes. Lots of spiritual thoughts.
My spiritual thought for this week:
During my spring semester at BYU, I worked as a custodian on the bathroom crew for the music building. Every morning, we would clean the building from top to bottom. And yet, the next morning we would have to do it all again. This is like repentence. Every day you can start with a clean slate, no mistakes. But it never stays that way. Just like we had to clean the same things everyday, we need to repent every day. It is a continuous effort to improve and grow closer to God.
Also, if you know of anyone who is not getting my emails but would like to, let me know!
Love ya!
