Hump Day!!

We hit MTC hump day last weekend! I have been here for more than half of my time, and in less that 4 weeks, we will be leaving for Finland!!

Not too much going on this week. My district will be hosting the new missionaries today, which means we help them one-on-one to find their residence hall and classroom. It kinda sucks that it's on our P-day because that means we have 3-4 fewer hours to do P-day stuff and relax, and the whole week will be go go go. But, we did get up early this morning (5:50am) to go to a 7:00am temple session, which was nice, whether or not I was completely awake for the whole thing.

The new Hungarians have been here for a week now, and I love them so much! The only sister, Sister Feil, is staying in a room with Sister Owen and me and she comes with us to things like breakfast and gym and other activities she doesn't do with the elders in her district. She is amazing! She came right in and got to work. She has such an amazing positive attitude and hasn't had any problem settling in. She is such an example to me of patience and hard work. 

Our lessons are going pretty well. One of our "investigators" is almost committed to baptism, and the other is finally having a breakthrough. We started teaching each other as investigators too, and the elder "investigator" I'm teaching is thinking about baptism too!

I honestly cannot think of anything else exciting to talk about right now. So that's about it for this week! I hope all is well with you guys! May the Lord bless you all! Kirkko on totta!
