Temple Day!!

Sorry I didn't write monday our p-day got changed to today so that we could go to the temple today!!! I loved it! I love the crazy cool insights and revelation that come to me inside the temple. I was also able to do some of the stuff in chinese which was WAY cool and crazy hard to understand but it really made me listen really hard. I liked it a lot! 

Oh also, I MOVED! Haha :) Yes!~ I am now in a place called NanKan its in Taoyuan. I love it here already! My companion is Sister Miller who is so fun and full of energy. Its a little humbling being in a place I don't know once again and am becoming grateful for being able to be in Yilan that long where I could know where we were going who to call and such. I love it though. There are so many fun miracles going on here. The first night we were here we set 6 new baptismal dates with investigators. SIX! In ONE NIGHT. All I can say is that I said a very long gratitude prayer that night. I am so grateful to have been able to meet such prepared and incredible people. It was such a good feeling. 

My new apartment is cute. We live on the 23 floor so imagine our building its HUGE however our apartment is a little baby guy. But its nice and hommy. The washer machine shocks you if you touch it without rubber shoes on. It will only take me a few times to get into the habbit I am sure. Another fun thing is that the district here is SO close it really feels like a family here. Very different from anything else. I have realized from moving here that I have always been a little... lonely?? Not really though just like super tight with my companion and chill with that and now I have a lot of really close friends here all pulling together as one. ANd it really makes a difference the work here is way faster than anywhere else. The work is not meant to be done just by two little missionaries we really do need us all including the members to pull it together. It is an awesome feeling! 

What else happened this week?.... hmmm... OH! Mom dad! I can't do anything fun on the first with you all cause I need to go to a wedding! Sister Gruwell is getting married on the first! So anyway... sorry to throw that wrench in the gears for your plans. 

Uhm... What else to tell you all??? I don't really know yet so next week I will tell you all more about what its like here right now its all really new and crazy I like it a lot. Its slower than taipei like people and car and building wise but faster than yilan. its a good pace I like a lot. 

Well sorry for the mushy letter all about my feelings and takeing on the move mom just asked me to tell her more about the way I am and not the stories that is going on. so I can't really do both my brain is not that smart. Simple. I have been working on being able to have more simple thoughts so that I can teach the lessons easier.. and... anyway :) yes. Love you all will try to write you all personal letters! BYE!!!!
