Oi!
I guess there isnt much to talk about this week, just lots of language, lessons and learning. Sister Bailey and I have been working really hard on our lessons every day and our portuguese and teaching has improved. Its really difficult and time consuming the way we outline but it has helped a lot! I have learned so much since being in this CTM. I am really grateful I got to spend this month here. I dont know that I would have learned as much portuguese if I were in provo, well I know I wouldnt. Its still really difficult but I am beginning to comprehend more and more each day. It will be bittersweet to leave next tuesday, the 19th. I love it here so much! i love my teachers and the other missionaries and our district is finally down to the coolest people!
We are having the greatest pday today! I went to the SP temple this morning and only got a little motion sick on the bus, in an hour were going shopping with the CTM pres wife. (which should be kept on the down low) we told her we wanted a couple more skirts because we brought heavy ones. She told us about this store. We asked if it was in our boundaries and she said " i dont know, ill get someone to drive you" shes so very fabulous. I adore her, and she likes my outfits and my hair and my face so shes basically just a really great person to be around- see ill miss this about the CTM too! For lunch/dinner were going to a brasilian restaurant with our teachers. Our district is down to 6 now so its just a lot of fun!
I thought id share the most amazing ability i have developed while on my mission. That talent is sleeping wherever/whenever. I used to be so fussy about sleep, the temperature needed to be right, the clothes had to be the perfect texture of cotton, the lights and the noise had to be just so. Not anymore. If you arent talking to me or I dont have a task to accomplish im likely asleep. I can sleep on busses, in the temple, for a minute or 2 hours. Note to family and friends: when I get home from my mission I will sleep for 1 week straight.
I wish I could share pictures with you. I hope I can print some or upload some when I get to the field next tuesday morning! I am going to the field next tuesday morning, ready or not!
We have had some really amazing lightening storms lately. They are loud and beautiful! Anyway, sorry this is short. We need to get going on laundry and stuff. Pdays always seem to be the shortest days of the week. Eu sei que este igreja e o unico igreja verdadiero em a terra. Eu so grato pro o evanghelo. Joseph Smith fui um profeta! Eu amo o amo voces mutio!
Hopefully my emails will be more exciting starting next week! Pray that I wont be sent to the sketchier parts!
