Week 5?

I can't even remember if it's week 5 or not, but I think it is. Time has really flown by here. I get my reassignment next week! Ah! It's like getting a mission call all over again! Where is Sister Peart going to go? Who knows?

 

Also, I've realized that these blog emails I type make no sense. I think I just type whatever comes into my mind, and usually it's utter nonsense. The sleep deprivation is getting to me. This morning a bunch of sisters in our residence were getting ready (quite loudly) in the bathroom at 5 in the morning. I was filled with a very missinary inappropriate bloodthristy rage. This happens almost every day. I'm tired. :) On the plus side, we all look like we're suffering from severe narcolepsy. (Sorry, I can't spell that word. Although, since I've been learning portuguese, I can't spell anything in English) We've all developed the remarkably ability to fall asleep in the middle of anything. Every morning during personal scripture study I wake up sitting up in my desk drooling down onto my scriputres. The other day I was sitting next to Sister Baldwin during TALL time and she literally fell asleep in the middle of recording a sentence. The temple is hopeless. It's gotten to the point that I only wake Sister Keenan up if she starts snoring. :) A couple of weeks ago I was sitting in between her and Sister Thornton in the temple and it looked like they were both having epileptic fits. I bit through my lip trying not to bust up laughing. Every time I wake them up they're like "Thanks!" and promptly fall right back asleep. Hilarious.

 

Let's see. I sent some pictures to my mom, and I'm assuming she'll put them on the blog so let's get some discriptions of them:

1. They sell T-shirts in the bookstore for every country. Sister Keenan and I have the Brasil shirts, and the other sisters have the Mozambique shirts.

 

 

2. One day I looked up during class and realized that we were a rainbow! We did not plan it (except for Sister Keenan. Originally she was wearing white and was the cloud, but after lunch she changed into red). Pretty sweet. The order is: Sister Keenan, Sister Thornton, Sister Baldwin, Sister Merkely, and Me. :)

 

3. My p-day outfit has devolved into a horrid tourist monstrocity. Mission t-shirt, bright red jogging pants that I have not washed once, and my sister missionary shoes. It's lovely.

 

 

4. Sister Keenan and I in our mission t-shirts.

 

5. The one decent picture that we took. At least I think I included that one. If I didn't, rest assured that one does exist. :D

 

 

Let's seeeee, what elseeeee.  OH! The Church is having some big Worldwide Traning Meeting shindig on the 23rd. The prophet and apostles and all those important people are going to be there, including MYSELF! They're broadcasting it all over the world I believe and I will be there. In the choir. You could see me. They put together a choir of missionaries and members (I think the topic is member missionary work) and they're going to record it and sync it with video clips and other warm and fuzzy things and they're going to put it on the church website and I will forever be able to brag to my posterity that I'm in that video. That is all. I'm only a little bit a lot excited. :)

 

ALSO! I could remember if Merlissah reported this week or next and so I was keeping my eye out for her and when I finally gave up, GUESS WHO WALKED INTO THE CAFETERIA RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE! No, not Merlissah. BABY DEARDON! Elder Daniel Deardon walked right in the door. I had forgotten when he reported! Also, he confirmed my suspicion that Merlissah does not, in fact, report until next week. Good to know.

 

ALSO AGAIN! My companion auditioned to do a musical number in one of the deviontals and she MADE IT! :D It was so scary! All I had to do was sit in the room, and I was terrified. Sister Nally has perfect pitch and is really picky and intimidating, but she loved her! There's an acapella part in the song and Sister Nally said she never allows people to do acapella because she's afraid they'll screw it up, but she said she would let Sister Keenan do it! :D It was so great.

 

Hmmm. Also, I just ran into Sarah Chamberlain's brother just now. Weird. :)

Also congrats to Jake and Megan. :) :)

I'm certain that I'm forgetting something.......

 

But anywho. I'll remember next time, maybe.

 

Bye everybody!

 

P.S. Merlissah, you must see me before I depart. Or I will be quite put out.
