FOOD AND BIKE ACCIDENT

Mom, you asked about the food. There are definitely some interesting things here. Yes I will have to get used to that black glass drink with the weird jellies in it... yuck. But I will eventually hopefully! Daily food is like, cereal for breakfast. And then we have like sandwiches like pbandj or tuna, or dumplings or zhuabing (it's my favorite). But then for dinner we have the same thing or just grab something on the street or members feed us! That's our favorite is when the members feed us. Which they usually will feed us or send us home with some kind of something... Haha

 

So this week I just really really grew my love for the members! I love them here so much! Yesterday I was sitting in church and my love for them was just overwhelming. I just love them more than anything and am so grateful for the ward we have. They are the best and ah. I just love them so much! We have had a lot of opportunities to meet with them a lot so we can build those relationships and gain their trust. It has been so much fun getting to know them. I love them so much. But yeah they are great.

 

So the other day I accidentally hit my companions bike and it fell over and scratched a car. We didn't know what to do, becauuse we couldn't just leave ya know. We have to represent Christ and own up to our actions. So we had no idea what to do because we don't have insurrance or anything.So we left a note (it had to be all in characters...). So we were looking up all the characters but had to guess on some. Well the guy ended up coming back out and he seemed a little stern so we were nervous. We told him what happened and he said, it's okay and just got in his car and drove away. So we didn't give him the note. Then we decided to take the note to our Taiwanese roommate so she could read it so we could see if we said everything right. We didn't. The note said "Hey we are really sorry. Our bike fell and we erased your car. We have pictures." And that is what it said! We were all laughing soooooo hard! Haha. It was a miracle in itself just because I think we all needed a good laugh.

 

Missionary work is great! IT is hard work in every way. But it is the best. I love it so much(: Thanks for all your prayers and support. You are the best people in the world. Thanks for your emails and advice. I love you all!
