Week 3 down!

Let me just say that time is flying by! weeks feel like days but on the other hand days feel like weeks! days go by fast and slow and its really hard to remember what day it is sometimes! i havent really had mail this week because of the holiday and the mail service gets way slow but my teachings have gotten better! we have been teaching two investigators hows name is jan olav and yin ming something.... hahaha but they both are athiest but are progressing well and are learning more and more! i have the first lesson down pretty well and the language is coming i just have to thing alot of what i am trying to say! i am reallly trying to SYL this week but i am memorizing words and getting more words everyday! flipping and flopping sentances is giving me a reall struggle but i am not to worried about that right now i feel that that is something i will get down eventually when i am in the field! this week has deffinatly been the best spiritual week! the devotional on sunday was a riot! the guy that spoke was crackin jokes every sentance! him and his wife gave us the best lesson! it was steven allen he was from the managing missionaries or somehting like that and he was a great guy! my room mates left today and that is kind of a dissapointment since they were really funny and yes the photos i sent they are the really nerdy ones and just by looking at them they make you want to bust out laughing!:) i am hoping we dont get new room mates right away because i for our luck they will be up tight and wont have anyspace for jokes....! today at the temple i saw spencer reed! that was very spiritual and the spirit just took over my whole body when i started talking to him!  i am glad to hear about all the blessings that you are recieving since i have been out here and trust me i think about you guys all the time and my eyes fill with tears but i know this is what i am suppose to be doing and it will bless my life and also my famillies life! i hope you can start to get over your sinus infection mom! its been along time since you ahve been up to full health and i pray that you will start to have many blessing and to start to feel better! i love you sooo much! mtc life is great there is always something to learn everyday! i am almost finished with the book of mormon i have 90 pages left! i dont get as much study time as i want because i have to split it up everyday and it feels like i dont get enough time to accomplish what i would like to do! personal study is only 1 hour aday and comp study 1 hour and language study 1 hour! so my own personal study i have to split up with preach my gospel and with my scriptures and trying to ponder everything it feels like i just dont have enough time to do everything i want during study! My teacher brother jaffa is so great! i am starting to really understand the language well mostly during teaches but trust me they dont slow down the speach at all we will have things repeated over and over again and then figuring out what to say to get a man who barely believes in god is not an easy task! everyday is a rollercoaster at the mtc... you will have your highest day and the lowest and feel like you just cant do anything but after you pray its like everyting just starts to become clear again and you can speak again and your brain is done hurting from all this stuff that is getting hammered into your head and cant even think! prayer is always been one of my strong holds though it has always brougth me to come back and to feel the spirit more and more! sundays are by far one of the best days in the mtc! no language and its literally the day of your rest well brrain rest haha! i have been singing in the chior and that is such a spirtual thing! when we sing called to serve... i can only tell you how the spirit just over whelms the room! we sing it in a different way start out low then second verse mid and then the lastt part we get louder and then we sing the chorus again with the might of ten thousand people! i love the mtc even through the ups and downs! thanks for your letter dad i love getting family letters its a brighning in my day and always lifts me up to keep working harder and pusshing forth in faith! the gift of tounges is AMAZING! seth used to tell me this quote; there is a difference between conceptual learning and experiance. the gift of tongues is something that you have to experiance to understand! i am glad that you found the problems on the truck and were able to get them fixed! casey is great with cars and that is deffinatly one thing i miss is being around cars and learning but that is one thing i gave up to be here! i got a letter from tim barlow and tell him thannks it made my day to get that! tell the family that i love them and am always waiting for letters to hear how everyone is doing! jeg vet at en frelser vete hver ett av oss og det hvis vi folge jesu kristi eksemlpe vi kan komme tillbakke til ham! han er meg frelse og jeg elske ham alltid!
