shouette
kakahuette.
That's
not spelled right but it means "cool peanut." kakahuette derriere
means peanut butt so there's that for you if you ever should need it.
fave
things this week:
mom's
dried mangoes she sent me. mom if you, you know, just have a ton of those and
say "hmm, I have no idea what to do with these," you are free to
stick them in some envelope somewhere and mail em' over my way. cause...
between s mend, frere taua and I, they were gone in a matter of like 10 minutes
and we aren't even supposed to eat in class. uh oh. he's even from tahiti and
knows the real deal. he was basically crying.
walking
to the temple this morning and hearing the track meet going on!!! brought back
a lot of fun memories hearing that voice over the speakers. I can see the byu
stadium from where we are at and I got so exicted for all those tracky kids.
Good luck Ian!! I wanna know exactly how do it go! I'm glad I know you're all
close to me today :)
Realizing
in the temple today that I am on a mission because I love my family so much
that I have to tell other people how to be with theirs for eternity.
S. Mend
and I made up a funny song.
Playing
volleyball like a boss. I got this spike thing down. The MTC has trained me
well.
Realizing
that i really do love it here.
Tuesday
night devotionals are le meilleur.
goo goo
dolls new album and the song. thanks mom.
I found
a shirt in the give away box with a dog picture on it.
learning
subjunctive in french. ok maybe that wasn't my favorite but actually it is
pretty cool. Why don't we have that in english?
Trying
to learn Tahitian.
Feeling
the spirit all the time!! so fun!
apples
and pb
Not much
else to report right now. Just know that I love you tons and tons and lots and
lots. I wish I had more time to explain everything happening and everyone
around me, but I pray for you every night and think about you every day. :) I
love the changes to the house but not the picture of me. oh well. hope you all
have a good time with some new baby kittens and destroying isaac's school and
taking tons of naps! oh and covering up chocolate stains with your now useful
tie dad. hahaha thanks for being the best. thanks for the emails and
support, I really am so lucky and realize that more and more every day. :) Love
you all so much. I laugh so hard at all of your emails and that's important.
Laughing is so important so keep it up fam! you laugh more than like anyone
ever!
40
lashes?!
Well
well well. How is it even friday again? they days have begun to blend into this
smoothie of eat study eat study feel the spirit laugh really hard a lot because
everyone is hilarious here. or maybe I just haven't watched a movie forever so
life is actually funny now. ;) How was captain america? hahaha.
this
week we started learning tahitian! I am in love. It is so poetic and simple
and, although the language itself is very hard to understand or get the grasp
of speaking, the concept of the words just work. it is put together so simply
and directly. the word for Savior is "faaora" and literally means
"to make life." or "life maker." oh my goodness I just
wanna cry. now just to memorize....
also we
learned subjuntive in french thise week. all these new windows of knowledge are
opening up on me and actually I feel like I'm drowning in concepts and words...
but in a good way. It will make me smarter eh?
Really
quick I just want to give a spiritual thought. The book of mormon is literally
true. People say oh yeah it's true, like the words help us live better and be
closer to christ and all that good stuff. But oh man, this week I prayed to
know for reals if these things actually happened, and guess what? THEY ACTUALLY
HAPPENED. these stories about crazy miracles and people with all the strength
of God were a part of history! our history! Who likes history? me!
every
single prophesy in the BOM was fulfilled and that's also really cool to think
about.
So I
guess my shpeel right now is that if you don't know, start asking. Just ask God
in the name of Jesus Christ to understand more about the book of mormon, or
about why we have a certain law, or how you can have more peace in your life,
or how you can get along better with your mom or brothers or dog. Don't be
scared. just project your heart to the Life Maker and be sincere about it. GOD
WILL ANSWER YOU.
that's
all. 3 Ne 11:3-7
