Questions asked by my Family

1. Who is your companion? What do you like best about him?

My Companion is Elder Simpson. He looks just like Dallas Clark and Joseph. It's scary. XD And I like how we both just seem to get along greatly. 

2. How did your biscuits and gravy hold up on the flight??? Are you glad you took them? Would you do it again!? LOL

The biscuits crumbled in the flight, but they were good that night. It made everyone smile seeing them

3. I'm guessing you've already dived right into the Language classes, right? How are they going?

The language classes are going okay I guess. Really confusing, but we are learning more and more. We can hold up conversations and bear our testimonies, as well as teach lessons.

4. Curious about the food. Is it like a school cafeteria where there is a set menu and you go through the line and they serve it up? or is it more of a buffet style and you serve yourself?

The food is more like a cafeteria, but there are between 2 and 3 options a meal. It's really good food, and I need to hold back because they offer desserts with every meal. Need to try to stay healthy here. But man the food is good.

5. How was your first Sabbath in the MTC? What did it consist of?

Sabbath was great. A wonderful day to unwind. We woke up, worked on our lessons, then had church. The lessons are one Elder and one sister is called to speak, so we make the lessons just in case. Then later that night we had choir and devotional. Choir was optional but 3/4 of the MTC was doing it. The devotional was good, and by a branch president and his wife here in the MTC

6. I know you were nervous and anxious last Tuesday before heading out... how are you feeling now? More comfortable? relaxed? uptight? anxious still?

It's just a mix of emotions really. It's hard to explain. We're just so busy it's hard to feel much though.

7. What's been your "Spiritual High" for the week?

 I think my spiritual high for the week was going to the Temple today. We went early in the morning, and most of my district was there in the same session. They do a session there every 20 minutes. Though the whole place is just so spiritual and focused on christ.

8. Tell us about your week - what is life like in the MTC?

The week was good, really busy. The days are mainly the same except for Wednesdays and Sundays. And we do service Friday morning. So in other words it's our zone's day to clean places.

9. Is there anything you would like us to send to you? 

Well some shaving cream might be nice because TSA wouldn't let me take it. The eletric razor is working well though. Also maybe some more Shampoo, because I'm not sure if it'll last the 6 weeks. Snacks are nice as well. XD ooooh and I think that might be it. But I won't say no to anything.  

10. Have you seen anyone that you know?

 I've seen ryker. I didn't see him till Sunday though I was looking for him all week, but now I can't stop seeing him everywhere. I met multiple people either from riding from the airport, or my Host who showed me around the first day. We see them a lot. My host was From New Zealand and is going to Fiji on his mission. But yeah. Having a good time. Thanks for sending the letters. And tell the children I love them.
