REAL LIFE POKEMON

Okay so crazy week here at the MTC. First of all this is how I feel: The MTC is almost like an alternate universe it feels like. I feel like there is no outside world. The trees encompass the whole campus and it is just a freaky feeling of being separated from the world. 

So crazy story. On Wednesday night we were all getting ready for bed in our residence and then Sister Thompson went to leave the room and there was a security guard and a guy with a big net walking down the hall and they said: "stay inside" so of course we DON'T stay inside and go out trying to figure out what's going on and getting excited about an adventure.... so then it turns out there was a BAT loose in the residence hahahahha and the guy with the net was trying to find it.... then I accidentally got us all locked out of our room because I wasn't thinking and it was just super funny. Then on Thursday they had an emergency meeting for all of the Sisters at the MTC (we were in PE time so didn't hear the announcement until it was too late) Turns out the bat situation is a bad problem and they were emergency moving us out of our residence!!! We had an hour to pack up our bags and then we had to move out to the farthest back corner of campus to an old Elder's Residence!! (oh and some sisters who were just about to leave this week to Japan or something have to stay an extra week to get Rabies shots just in case hahahahaha) OH AND I ACTUALLY SAW A BAT!!! It was de bomb. 

But ps, the residence we live in is totally meant for Elders and not sisters and it is pretty rough to get use to, but we can do it.)

Meanwhile Sister Racca and I still had to teach an investigator and have dinner and go to class. So we recruited the help of Elders to move our luggage across campus (because our new residence doesn't have stairs) and this didn't happen until 9:00 at night. It was a crazy crazy night.

but it was super funny because when we were telling our teacher Brother Barr about how we have to move and we described the guy with the net he said: Like pokemon? and started pretending to throw poke-balls. It was the funniest.

Oh and super funny thing that goes on in our Branch. So Elder Folau in my district is a very outgoing rambuctious Elder. So we have a computer program that we use to help teach us German words and phrases to use in the lessons. the person who says the words for you sometimes says the word super weird, this one word: Die Wahreit (dee varheight which means the truth) is said almost like a yell and it's super funny. So Elder Folau started going around yelling Die Wahreit and it spread to our whole district and somehow spread to the whole zone. So now whenever someone yells out DIE WAHREIT! Everyone else HAS to yell it back. It's hilarious!!! 

I'm almost HALF WAY DONE with the MTC!!!!!!!!!!! I'm getting super excited to get out to the field. Even though my German still isn't the best hahaha.

LOVE YOU EVERYONE!!!!

Okay I forgot some stuff and needed to add it on!!!! So first of all SHOUT OUT TO MY BROTHER CODY!!! Happy Birthday CODY!!!!! He's my favorite brother ever!!!!

Second My companion is finally getting the language and lessons are going SO MUCH BETTER we are also totally learning better how to teach by the spirit and less by a plan.

Also AWKWARD STORY!!! So last Sunday I was wearing a pretty cute outfit (really wish I had a picture) but during dinner I get up to go get some ice cream with one of the other sisters and she says: Hey sister losee you have a little mark on the back of your skirt. So I say: That's okay i'll check it out when we sit down. So then half our Zone is all sitting around each other and then I mention how I might have something on my skirt. So sister Racca has to see, well I stand up and turn around and she FLIPS OUT! And then that gets the attention of everyone and then now everyone wants to see, I WANT TO SEE and I stand up and I SAT ON A PIECE OF A CHOCOALTE CHIP COOKIE!!!! So some chocolate chips totally melted on my skirt and then had been smeared and it looked like it was something other than chocolate. I turned BRIGHT red and everyone started freaking out, so now the WHOLE side of the cafeteria we're on are trying to see what's happening. Someone pulled out a camera and I yelled at them hahaha and then I booked it out of that cafeteria SO FAST!!! (while everyone watched me) I about died. Just thought I would let everyone know that I am still the same old awkward person hahahaha.
