Well hello!!! This week I must admit has been the hardest week for me here. I am sick :( Yesterday I had to go to sick bay and stay there for a couple of hours and then go to the Health Center and get drugs. The drugs kept me awake ALL NIGHT! Actually just from 12:30 on. So I am like a zombie today. Both sister Ence and I are sick. I was worse yesterday and then by the end of the day she was worse. :( Being sick here is no fun at all. I am determined to not let it make me get behind in Polish though. Gloria this language is SO HARD!!!!! I think I am improving though. All last night all I could think about was polish. So I conjugated while I was laying there dizzy.
This week on Tuesday a member of the 70's came and taught us with his wife. They just moved from Japan a little over 4 months ago. So there Engrish is not very good :) It was so sweet though his wife tried SO hard to pronounce everything and you could still feel the spirit when she spoke.(Even if it didn’t totally make sense). It was really funny when The Elder put his slideshow up because it said things like "bear testimony" haha but it was still so good and I got so much out of it. I was even able to not laugh most of the time. :) It reminded me of Eileenie :) Ps you should tell her to write me because I don’t have her address.
It was fast Sunday this week and you will be proud of me!!! I fasted ALL DAY until like 5:45 that is the longest I have ever fasted in my life. I have never put my whole heart into a fast like that before. It was amazing. I can already see the improvement in my language abilities. We had mission conference and it was really good. They keep you nice and busy on Sundays. The greatest thing I heard was "Every success story is filled with Obstacles" I LOVED that! It’s so true! I also love that it applies to everyone not just missionaries.
We had our first TRC this week....It was all in Polish and oh man it was SO HARD!!! Sister Ence and I cried as soon as we got out of the first lesson and then cried during the whole second lesson. It was kind of a mess. We had no idea what they were saying and just made me realize how much my polish sucks. It was a good lesson though because sometimes the Lord has to let you fall down low before he can pick you up and push you higher. So I am hoping this week that TRC will be much better.
Ummm… one of my fav districts left this morning :( I am really going to miss them but we can write each other and be friends after. On a super happy note BRITTANY GETS HERE TOMORROW!!!! My roommate from school gets here! I have been counting down the days!!!! :) I can’t wait to see that girl!!! I think it will make my life. Also I got mail from Ben ray and Cami. I love getting mail. It’s seriously the BEST thing in the WORLD!!!
This week we started Christmas celebration and we talked a lot about Joseph Smith. I watched part of the JS movie on Sunday. That movie is SOOO GOOD! I love that man! I love our church so much. He is an example to all of us. He had so many trials but stuck by the Lord through it all. I love our Prophet so much and I am so grateful that through Joseph Smith we are able to have the gospel in our lives. I def wouldn’t be on a mission right now and that makes me sad. Well my time is out; I am going to go nap. I'm still dizzy :/ I love you all!!
