This week our zone was hit hard with the black plague. Everyoneeee was sick including my companions & I. Saturday we were confined to the residence hall and I've never been so bored. About the time I knew everyone was getting out of class, I sat down by the big window with a sign that said "Help Me"...the looks I got were priceless (hahahaha) everyone was dying.
There is a special tree here in our compound that if you put your nose right up to it, it smells like cream soda. I kid you not. It's hilarious watching groups of missionaries go up and smell it for the first time. The things we do for fun here....
Lafaele Shimai and I have way too much fun. I'm going to leave here with brain damage from the amount of times I've hit my head on something while laughing.
Our best friends are the Elders going to Argentina. ai shite imasu them so much. With the amount of Spanish I've learned from them I'm going to be leaving here trilingual.
I'm trying to find the words for what happened last night but I'm not sure if there are any. We had a devotional and the rumor was that someone important was coming. We were singing hymns when the doors opened and Elder Neil L Anderson walked in. It's amazing what happens when an Apostle enters the room. I didn't see who it was at first but the way the spirit filled my heart, I knew it was an Apostle. Without thinking all 3000 of us were on our feet. He gave an amazing talk and a few times he looked me right in the eyes. What really hit me was the very end when he was testifying of our Savior Jesus Christ. Suddenly his whole countenance changed. He stood a little taller and his voice got stronger as he repeatedly said "I know Jesus Christ lives. I am a witness of Him." There's not a person in that room that would ever deny that Elder Anderson knows our Savior.

This church is true and you all NEED it in your lives. I can't stress it enough.
