Just to preface, this email is going to make me sound super
trunky,
although I'm not. Our week was full of very unsuccessful
finding, and
so the only few highlights we have pertain to me going home.
First off, I got my flight information emailed to me Monday,
and then
a paper copy of it at Zone Conference on Wednesday. It was
honestly a
very surreal moment for me to realize that I'm actually
going home. My
whole mission I have felt like I'm never going to leave PA
(don't
worry, I love this place now), so seeing evidence that I am
going to
leave is weird.
I also attended my last zone conference on Wednesday. It was
really
fun to see the five missionaries I knew that hadn't gone
home yet, and
I am so grateful for the friendships that I've gained here
in PA. I
love my missionary friends!!! During the meeting I also gave
my
departing testimony. I always feel the spirit super strong
when
missionaries give their departing testimony, so I was
expecting to
feel some super power ignite within me that would make
people break
down into tears. But in all honesty, it felt weird to be the
one
standing in front of my peers testifying of how I came
closer to my
Savior over the past eighteen months. It was definitely cool
to
reflect and look back at the countless lessons I've learned,
and I
felt honored to have the opportunity to share my testimony
in front of
people I respect. I'd share my testimony with you right now,
but I'm
probably going to share it in my homecoming talk, so you'll
have to
wait to hear it :)
But with all this going home talk, I just want to verbally
state my
commitment to work hard and finish strong. It makes me sad
when people
disregard my last few weeks I'm out here. I'm not gone yet!
I'm still
ready to kick butt and see miracles, so get ready for next
week
because our limitless hours of finding this upcoming week
are going to
be fire!
We had a dinner one night where the father joked about how
the Chinese
restaurant by Walmart cooks cats and advertises it as other
meats. We
thought it was hilarious because we had a lunch appointment
the next
day at that exact Chinese restaurant. So we ate our hearts
out at the
buffet, and laughed the whole time at the idea of eating
mystery cat
meat. We decided cat tastes pretty good ;)

Williamsport peeps:)
Here's an awkward I don't know what to do with my hands
picture since elders and sisters aren't allowed to touch
each other....
Sister Maya and I have our departing testimonies
at zone conference...weird!
I met Elvis this past week.
