- Apple T-shirt
- A Chinese college student from Boston is showing his parents around the US. (Good son, methinks). AND he had the funniest T-shirt on! It was a black shirt. White writing: "I visited the Apple campus. But that's all I am allowed to say".
- Munkyoung's baptism
- I'm grateful for perspective. We went to a baptism this week of someone Sister Yao had taught. Munkyoung is Korean and lives here in Salt Lake. After she was baptized, she was SO happy. So sincere. So pure. I was reminded there why I am HERE. Happy message!! I'm grateful for the opportunity we get to invite others--including myself, sister missionaries and families, to choose to come closer to Jesus Christ.
- Danish friends!
- Saw some of my Danish friends this week!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!! DET VAR SAAAAA HYGGELIT!!! TUSIND TAK!
- Amy Winehouse died.
- I just found this out this week!! Rocked my world.
- Baptist couple
- Met a couple Mike and Sara who wanted a tour. Come to find out, they were from South Carolina on their way to visit Mike's brother in Canada. Go figure, Mike's brother is a Baptist pastor there. Oh wait, and Mike's dad was a retired dean at a private Baptist university. They were SO nice. So respectful. So sincere. Definitely disagreed with our doctrine, but the most respectful couple I've met. We believe that we can be together forever with our families after this life. Even though they don't believe that too, they treated us with so much respect. I left feeling so grateful for them and their sincerity and character.
- Running to the canyon
- I ran a few miles in a canyon for exercise this week and my legs felt like jell-o.
- Jeans from Japan
- THANK YOU so much Sister Hirata for the jeans and suit jacket!! YOU ARE SO HILARIOUS!! I was laughing so hard. Love you so much. I appreciated the note: "remember me through clothing". I love you so much and miss the tender moments we got to enjoy together. :)
- Seagull fountain
- You can barely see it, but in the link above, on the left hand side is the Seagull Fountain in front of the Assembly Hall here @ Temple Square. Well, this week, my former companion, Sister Chen from Taiwan, fell into said fountain. By immersion. Made my week!!!
LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! Take it easy!! :) I'm off to the Asian Market for more Wong Lo Kat. So delicious. :) Bye!!!
