Week 11

Monday: Our landlord and laundry lady are the worst. The laundry lady didn't do a good job washing our clothes, she delivered them a day late and they were still soaking wet so we had to dry them ourselves for like 2 days which meant we had no clothes.  Our landlord keeps trying to find problems with our apartment so we can pay more money on rent.

Tuesday. we went to this new gym that is so cool! It is on the third floor of this apartment building, it's super cool. 

 

 

When we came back from the gym, our favorite landlord was inside our apartment, he told us that we broke the lights and had to pay for them. That was when I realized the power box was open and I flipped the switch, and not surprisingly, all the lights turned back on! Then he told us that we can't put screws in the wall and we informed him that it wasn't us because they were put in a solid cement wall. lol!!!  I heard the song "grown women" by Beyonce and it reminded me of home lol that's a funny song. I saw a lizard eat the head of a dragon fly at an investigators home. and one of our friends in the ward got typhoid. 

Wednesday:  We had our District Meeting, we started by playing ping pong. It was so fun. Then we went to our training check up, which was at the exact same place as last week when we had our zone tour.  We slept over at the same place too.... lol. 

Thursday: I realized this day that reading scriptures fixes stress sometimes. Just focusing on something that is only good and spiritual really helps with the work. We met this investigator who said his eyes don't work because he was outside when it was really hot, and then it randomly rained and became cold. The people here don't know about jack squat about anything medical. We also went to this birthday party and watched them all do karaoke. 

 

 

Friday: I had the best lesson of my life! Our investigator, Jun, cried and thanked us for helping him. He also gave us his disco light and we hung it in our apartment. 

 

 

Saturday: I made pancakes again, and I am officially half way through reading "Jesus the Christ" Its a crazy good book. Then we taught the Law Of Chastity to this 13 year old investigator and that was an awkward first. 

 

 

Sunday: It was fast and testimony meeting. Filipinos here have no idea how to testify, they just get too distracted and tell stories that last like 4000 minutes, so me and my companion went up and bore our testimonies, I have never felt the spirit as strong as I did when I bore that testimony and I know they all felt it too, I saw multiple people cry and talk to me after.  

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY TO ALL THE AMERICANS, REMEMBER TO KEEP IT REAL FOR THE BEST COUNTRY EVER!
