So I've been getting sick all week, and it really sunk in on Friday and then I started loosing my voice. As of right now I can't speak above a whisper for more than a few sentences... Let's just say that missionary work in a whisper is interesting. ;)
 
The best part about this week was Saturday morning. President Hall called and released me from being an Hermana Training Leader and called me to be a trainer. We only have ONE new Hermana coming in this transfer, and he's going to let ME be her trainer!! I am SO excited, and I feel SO blessed! I love being a trainer. People always tell me that I am training because I'm an Hna Training Leader, but I have missed the one on one, day to day interaction.
 
I already wrote about Monday and Tuesday, but Wednesday we had exchanges with Hna Hall and Hna LeBanc. I got to stay in our area with Hna Hall and we had so much fun.
 
Thursday we finally got our car back from the office. (They switched us to a temporary car last week while they got ours fixed from when someone keyed it.) It is so nice to have the car I'm used to back.
 
Friday we had exchanges with Hna Hudson and Hna Glauser. I went to Van Nuys with Hna Hudson (ON BIKE!!!) and it was a blast. I was definitely a little bit out of it for most of the day because I was sick, and felt like my nose was going to fall out of my face. We had fun anyway and worked hard.
 
Saturday we finished the exchange, had a district finding activity in our area, and my voice officially dropped an octave.
 
Sunday we had church, and L, C, and C finally came to church as a family in Spanish!!!! We are so excited, and I'm grateful that I got to see them come once before I have to leave. We also got to see A Hansen (Hna Hansen) because she came to church in NoHo this week to visit the ward.
 
Love,

Birthday!

By
So, my birthday was yesterday, and it was quite possibly the best birthday ever , and definitely the BEST day of this semester!  It actually started the night before (the night of the 17th) when Janette came to dinner. We made pizza, Isaac brought cinnamon rolls, and we had several people over. I was already happy being able to party with Janette one last time before she went into the MTC . Then after dinner, my roommates surprised me with birthday cake and ice cream. Everyone sang happy birthday, and I was glad I got to celebrate with Janette. Then on the morning of the 18th (my BIRTHDAY ) I woke up and left my room, and this is what I found: streamers hanging from the connecting door, balloons all over the living room, streamers on the ceiling, a monkey hanging from the ceiling in the kitchen, and 20 sticky notes that said 20 different things my roommates love about me. : ) I have the BEST   roommates ever! Sandra also had a few dollar store presents for me, and the best o...

Going Public

By
So I was thinking today about how I love to keep up with my friends and family through their blogs. I'm pretty busy with school, so I really don't have time to call everyone who is important to me and talk about their lives. Instead I read their blogs. I write my blog for much the same reason, so that people who care about me can read about my life on their own time. Ever since I started my blog I've had it privatized so that only people who I invite can read my blog. However, as I have made more friends, I've had multiple people be surprised that I have a blog at all, and some have asked to read it. I've always been hesitant to let people read my blog because I don't want to inadvertently offend someone or accidentally share something I'd rather keep private with the whole world. I realized today that that is really silly considering the purpose of my blog, and so I've decided to publicize my blog. I realize that I write about other people on my blog, a...

Cibophobia

By
I have been a picky eater for as long as I can remember. In fact, I am the pickiest person I have ever met. (I've heard of people who were pickier for a while, but not for such an extended period of time.) From as far back as I can remember up until my last year of high school I ate the same things all the time. I took the same thing for lunch every day from kindergarten through high school. My parents didn't understand, but they never tried to force me to eat anything I didn't want to. (Well, except once when I was five or six, and my mom said I couldn't have anything else to eat until I ate a slice of apple. ... I went three days without food and she gave up.) While I have always just said I'm a picky eater, I now believe that I suffer from Cibophobia. Cibophobia is the fear of food. If you'd like, you can read more about it here . Why was my diet so limited? Why did I refuse to try new things? It was because trying new foods, the thought of putting the food...
