MTC Life

chilling outside the temple :)

Hi!!!!!!If you were to type "what did I learn this week?" into my brain, my hippocampus would fire back about 2,344,587,934 results. Every day is filled with epiphanies and grand enlightenment!Crazy things happened this week.First- I was walking to lunch and then all the sudden, a doe, a deer, a female deer, RAN full speed towards me and my companion and we froze in fear and I guess since it sees out the side of it's head it didn't see us- but it GOT SO CLOSE LIKE 4 FEET FROM US AND THEN RAN TO THE SIDE. Idek how a deer got into the MTC. It's literally a gated jail. Idk. But we screamed so loudly and we talk about it every day. That's when you know your life has become routine and predictable......Next. Sister Shill had an eye infection and the MTC clinic was closed, so we left. the. MTC. YEAH. We went to the Walgreens in Provo. We were flipping out. It was pretty exciting and we even took a picture in the aisles to prove it happened.

Lastly, every night our room has a feature presentation, finger puppet show broadcast on the ceiling with our flashlights. I narrate exciting chapters of the Book of Mormon like Alma 17, and Sister Anderson does the finger puppets.

But seriously. The MTC is so cool because so many of the missionaries I am surrounded by have not had easy lives. They have have faced abuse, broken families, addictions, diseases, and so many other hardships. But the gospel of Jesus Christ has healed them, and they are here on their missions to help people. It is so crazy uplifting. I love feeling the Spirit here!!! :)

Sorry for the long email... but, a week from now, I will be flying to Canada! :) yeah!!!!! So on the biggest day of heartbreak (Valentines Day!) you will not receive a letter from this missionary. I know, I would be sad too.

I love you all! :)
