Well not much has happened this week, lots of Japanese learning and teaching skills learning but nothing too note worthy just good steady week of progress.
2 weeks until i go to japan!!!! This is crazy i'm so not ready, I'm so excited yet so petrified! I hope I get a good trainer!
So in one of our lessons I told our investigator that God is Jesus's son..... easy mistake hahaha.
Yesterday was our first skyped member lesson, so basically we skype a japanese person from japan and get to know them and teach a lesson. When she talked she talked really fast and would talk for 2 minutes straight then ask if we understood hahaha Everytime we just nodded our heads and pretended we knew what was going on hahah. At the end she said we have very good japanese because we could understand what she was saying.... Truth of the matter is we both were sooo lost as to what she said. We picked up enough words to know what she was talking about but no idea really what she said hahaha.
Being around so many Americans makes Australians accents really stand out! After being here for 7 weeks I am really starting to appreciate Australian accents hahahaha ***love Aussie accents***
Hunter West just arrived at the MTC on Tuesday! He is doing well but like me I think he is also disappointed with the quality of basketball... I got to be his "new missionary host" meaning I got to pick him up when he got here, took to get his books, take him to his residence and classroom and show him around a little bit :D So that was really cool!
My crazy story of the day!!!
3-4 years ago me ant this girl Loren were really good friends, at all the stake events we would hang out and stuff then she basically fell off the face of the earth I just assumed she went inactive or something and never really thought twice about it... Turns out she moved to NZ then to Queensland....Just yesterday we had a sister come in from Queensland Australia going to serve in the Japan Sendai Mission! When we saw each other we instantly recognized each other! It was a crazy crazy moment!!!!!! That was my crazy moment of the week!
