Man so this week has been a crazy one for sure!! Sounds like everyone is doing awesome back there! I love hearing about everything going on. You guys all sound super busy!!
So yesterday we had our infield orientation which went all day long but it was way good! Lots of different lessons that I learned a lot from, that will prepare me for when I go out into the field which is next week! The whole morning I was thinking "Okay I need to learn how to teach in english for when I get my reassignment tomorrow"! And then during our lunch break, I actually got my visa!! So crazy!! Way funny because I told all the sisters in our district that I got my visa and none of them believed me because I had told them that like 20 times before! haha! Way funny! So yah I leave the SLC airport at around 2 in the afternoon and fly to Atlanta and than down to Sao Paolo!! Definitely a fun experience for sure! Then the rest of the day I was thinking "Okay, now I have to learn how to teach in portuguese!" haha! Super good day though, yesterday. Man I am so excited. Straight into the field in Brazil!! The rest of my district got their reassignments today, which is also way exciting! My companion got his to Atlanta! There are a couple going to California and West Virginia. Three are going to Pocatello, Idaho and one to Michigan! It's all super cool. Everyone is way pumped and just excited to serve next week! Way cool! Make sure you have your phone on you all day because I don't know when I'll have time to call. I guess it will be before my flight in Salt Lake or when I have a layover in Atlanta. Just stay on your toes! I definitely feel like they held my visa so that I could learn the things that I needed to hear and learn at the Provo MTC! This last week I learned so much and felt like it was exactly what I needed to hear! Way cool and now I'm ready to get to Brazil!! ( If you can't sense my excitement, then you should probably put your glasses on or something!) haha.
