Lots and Lots of Philipino experiences (Week 8)

Yo yo yo

This week has been so crazy good with tons and tons of experience. I am really loving it here and it has been lots and lots of fun. Before I forget, I havent watched conference yet. Remember I am 14 or 15 hours ahead of you so when you guys were waking up to watch Sunday morning session I was already done with sunday and asleep. So we watch conference a week after so this coming weekend. HOWEVER for some reason President Speirs is not letting us go to any of Saturdays Session. So that is really annoying and frustrating but everything has a purpose. So ill be watching this week

Couple quick random things through out the week and then i have a good 40 pics to send so i got to get going on those lol. 

This week has been a lot of meeting members which is really good. They are all very understanding and love to help me with tagalog. One of our recent converts name is Marie. She is really cool and her and her son kurt were just baptized. BUT they have 13 cats and 9 dogs. Im not kidding at all. I counted every single one it is so crazy but good news there is no carpet so its not too bad ;)

One of our investigators name is Kenneth. He is gay and 17. He is very receptable to the gospel. It is really cool for someone to be so understanding and wants to know more. BUT for me, man it is hard teaching him. his voice is really high and the first time i taught him Elder Tanner turned to me to testify and share some and I was so so so close to saying "sister Kenneth" ihad to bite my tongue and gather my words and it was so bad but after i told elder tanner what happened and he just lost it. He thought it was the finnioest thing. Driving home that night in the Jeeonee i saw my first wreck. That was horrifying. Just a dead guy laying on the pavement while everyone just swerves around him and continues on. its so crazy here. That night I also did my laundry by hand for the very first time which was rough and that is going to take some time getting used to.  

Sunday was fast sunday and man it is hard on the mission. They are legit a 24 hour fast and its rough espically with the heat and everything but i did it. Its rough though. 

last quick storty and then i have lots of pictures.we were on a trike the other day. We were jsut going along and it ran out of gas. and he said "no gas' and i thought welp and then he reached down RIGHT next to the hot engine and grabbed a gatorade bottle. I thought it was gatorade but he started poruing it into the tank and just looked at me and laughed. they are crazy here man

i am loving it. The work is hard but so good! 

Love you all lots!
