Week Four

This was another super fast week although i had a head cold for a couple of days. i learned about contacting. I guess this is about 85% percent of the mission.. just talking to random strangers in gågater shopping mall strips. how scary! But im excited because talking to strangers will help me a lot especially as i listen to pronunciations and pick up new words. the first thousand times are gonna be tough but thats alright. I cant wait to be surrounded.
How fun for Annika! Its snowing as i type. I think im adjusting to this cold weather, but then again im usually in a heated classrom surrounded by 4 walls. Yesterdday my companion and I were invited to direct traffic for the incoming missionaries. Best 2 hours of my life! Somehow I managed to dodge all the emotionally distracted mothers. It was nice to be outside and could definately feel the sun bringing me back to sanity.
The Gospel is so real. If you live by it you will be blessed. If you don't you aren't, sooner or later you're going to have to deal with the consequences. we are so fortunate to have the restored gospel and i cant imagine how hard it be to live without it. Yeah there are rules, but so what. We're talking about exhaltation here.
That's good for Kaylyn, Im sure i'll see her. I know so many people here and im not even from Utah. The sisters are everywhere!!
Patrik can play water polo next year. I started my sophomore year and it was super fun and have a lot of great memories from polo. If i could go back to any team sport it'd be water polo. Patrik will do great and the chicks will dig it. Waterpolo and scootering is a great combination for getting all the ladies.
I wrote isoaiti and isoisa so hopefully they get my letter soon! whats grandpa geralds address? 1465, 1265?
Hopefully i get my travel plans in the mail soon. only have about 10 more days left of cabin fever!
ilove you all and I hope you all have a fabulous week! ill send you some pics after the temple.
vi ses til neste uke. ha det gøy!
