Loving the MTC!

It's been a good week. A hard, but good week. I have learned so much about myself and this work. Remember in Ether 12:27 how it says I will show unto you your weaknesses and make them strengths? Well I am really looking forward to when they are made strengths. God has shown me my weaknesses. I have a hard time with over thinking things and with a guilty conscience.   .....President Baker gave me a blessing at the end of the interview. God told me he was pleased with me and that I would be able to fight Satan off. He blessed me to really know the atonement so I can teach it. So I am really trying to study it and have faith that it works for me too. I love my branch president.
The MTC is fun as well. My district is still the best district here. Really though. No other district even compares. Every night when we go back to our susha's (me and wo de tongban) we just talk about how much we love the elders in our district. They are so incredible. I don't know how I got so lucky. We have all gotten so close, which like is really good, but also we are all starting to just be ourselves and we have to be reaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllyyyyyy carefull so it doesn't come across as flirting. Me and sister Chamberlain have been really good at not flirting though. No worries family.
Sometimes learning a language has it's perks. You have to learn to cherish the most hilarious moments where you say something really stupid. Like calling your teacher your beloved companion. It's really a great moment in someone's life. We were walking down the hall and usually we call him "qin'ai de tong laoshi" (Which means beloved brother tate) and instead I yelled, "qin'ai wo de tongban!!!" which means my beloved companion!!! Oh goodness. It was hilarious. We were laughing soooooo hard me and my comp. We were dying.I loooooove missionary work. Wo hen ai chuangjiaoshi work!!!!!!!! The Lord is really and he did die for us and suffer for us. I am forever grateful for him. I know he loves me and all of you. I know that he forgives us sooooo fast for the things we have done and we are the ones in the way of completing the repentance process. Really though when they said it is a commandment to forgive all men, God was talking about ourselves as well. So the process isn't over til you forgive yourself it is a commandment! I am off my soapbox now. No worries. I love you!
