Hello from the jungle! 
The weather has been a
little humid this week so I feel like I'm in the jungle. I'm hot and sticky all
the time! But, it's better than being cold and having dry, cracked skin, I
suppose! It's a love/hate thing.
I love my life right now! Double training is so awesome!! I love both of
my daughters (mission term. Maybe I shouldn't use it? I don't know. Oh,
well...)!! I love being with them! There isn't a day that goes by without us
laughing super hard and writing something in our quote book! It's great! So
some of you asked how studies go in the morning since I have to do different
things with them as far as the 12 week training goes. So let me tell you! This
was such a cool moment with Heavenly Father where He just laid it out for me
and showed me how to do it! So The first hour, I'm with Sister Croese doing the
second 6 weeks of training, and Sister Jorgenson is doing personal study. The
second hour we're all together planning for our day and learning about mission rules.
The third hour I'm with Sister Jorgenson for the first 6 weeks of training and
Sister Croese is doing personal study. then! In the fought hour, my companions
do language study and I have personal study time. So, 4 hours of studies in the
morning gets the job done. OI! It's a lot but it's okay. But yeah! So things
there are great!
OH! But we found out today that with our new apartment, we have to use
quarters for our laundry... I never have quarters on me so I guess I'll be
finding ways to get quarters each week now haha :) Such is life!
I don't have anything to report with our investigators... because we
don't have any... But we're working on it. We did whats called "chalk
talk" this week where you draw with chalk on the sidewalk and talk to
people about it. Usually you draw the temple or the plan of salvation or
something of the sort. I'll send pictures when I can.
Today we went on a special capitol tour! the senator of Utah invited all
the sisters for a special tour! And we were actually in the capitol at the same
time as President Obama. Cool, eh?
Oh, Elder S isn't in my district :( There is another sister that has a
visa waiter and they are in a trio so it might be her. Oh! and we're in a new
district! We're not with our Hispanics anymore! It's just us, the Elders in our
ward (who also happen to be the zone leaders), and 2 French Elders (one of them
is the district leader).
I haven't really done much as a VC area trainer yet so not much to
report there... Except I can tell you that exchanges are real exchanges where
you trade companions for a full 24 hours, and then you trade back. It's going
to be such a great transfer! I'm so excited! YAY! I love being a missionary,
and I love being able to work so closely with the Cookes! They are just
wonderful people and I love them so much!! Ah! SO GREAT!
I can't believe I'm almost down to 6 months!! What?? Where has the time
gone? this can't be real!
Oh, one more random
thing! Apparently the mission office is holding our mail hostage for unknown
reasons... So if I'm not writing you back, chances are I haven't received your
letter. Or you haven't written me. Or I run out of time on p-days. Sorry about
that :)
Anyway, I love you all
so much! Thank you for your love and support! You're all the greatest!! Love
you and miss you!
Love, Sister Bullock
