Semana Dos

 Hello Fam!

I'm still doing really good here! The MTC treats you pretty well. 
Some days I look north and feel like I can see our house from here. Especially when we take the bus to go to the main MTC campus. I still kind of feel like I am home, especially after going to the dentist.
The dentist! Was the worst. But I'm ok now and my smile should be back to normal next week! 

There is not really a whole lot of new things to tell you, because we basically do the same thing every day haha. We are basically always learning, practicing, or studying something. I love it.
But my companion, Hermana Wood and I are practicing a musical number, (she plays violin and I'm playing piano) that we might play at a devotional or something.
I will let you know more about what's going to happen. You can check out violins and cellos and sheet music at the MTC which is such a blessing!! We have time to practice on Sunday and P-day.

I am so excited to hear about the business. I hope everything goes well!

Last Thursday I took the front runner up to Salt Lake with about 20 other missionaries to meet with the Mexican Consulate to get our Visas!!! It was interesting to be out of the MTC as a missionary. When you are in the MTC, every one is a missionary and you don't stand out much. But once you go outside, you DO stand out and you are a light to the world!!! Something we talk about is that you are planting seeds, even with people you don't ever talk to! So it's very important to be dignified because we are representatives of the Savior!!!!

It was fun to talk to some people on the train and tell them a little bit about missionary work. I really love public transportation.... I don't know if that's weird. But I just love seeing a huge variety of people that have all come from different places and experiences, and it's fun to think about where they might be going or take a moment to make conversation with them.
We are all so different but we are children of our Heavenly Father! He loves us SO much. More than we could ever wish to comprehend. 
We may feel like we are one in a billion, that we are just a small dot on this huge earth, that we lack talent or knowledge. But we have the creator of the universe on our side!! We have the Savior of the world to rely on and to find comfort. 
We have the divine potential to be great, to love, to influence, and to enjoy life!!!!!

The missionaries in my district and in my zone are becoming great pals. Almost everyone in our zone is going to Guadalajara, mexico. I will miss them. I will really miss the sisters in my district who are going to Puebla and Mexico City West! So far I have not met any sisters in the MTC who are going to Merida.... I guess I will be a loner for now.

Thank you so much for sending me the map of Mexico!! I will be living there in about a month.... hooray!

I love all of you so much! Never give up! Never lose hope! Have a great week! Send me letters! Yay!
