The countdown has begun!!

The countdown till Christmas has begun!! Which is to say, that it's no longer weird that I have a countdown to Christmas. It took ya'll long enough, I've been waiting for 5 months!
 
Last P-day we went down to Central, to what most people think of when they think Hong Kong. It was really weird honestly, because it is just SO different from Sheung Shui! But we took some awesome pictures! Well, we tried at least. The wind was so strong that I'm not sure.....I'm telling myself that I just look like a model in a wind tunnel......but I don't quite believe myself yet
 
 
 
I'm not sure if I was standing sideways somehow, or if all the buildings and the ocean were experiencing uneven gravity. Probably uneven gravity, you know how it is. 
 
 
 
 
We ate out for Sister Thomsons Birthday! We shared this pineapple stir fry and it was AMAZING!! We've been together for the past TEN months!! CRAZY #TenderMercies #TiredEyes #SisterMissionaryProblems
 
 
I got a Christmas Package! So did Sister Thomson and Sister Hoxer, so our Charlie Brown Christmas Tree is looking much less lonely. I'M SO EXCITED FOR CHRISTMAS!! Although, the customs paperwork for this package says that it includes "Lures" so I'm not sure what that means #ProblemsOfPeopleRelatedToMyDad #BlessingsOfPeopleRelatedToMyDad
On Sunday we stayed after church to be in the Ward Choir. Wow. I love Chinese people so much. But they are just not super good at singing things that aren't Chinese Opera. There are some songs that work if you're just got enough of us, cause then our enthusiasm makes up for it. Anyway. Last night we had a music activity where a member choir sang parts of Handles Messiah. It was AMAZING!! The Messiah isn't normally my style, but it was just so beautiful, and I couldn't stop thinking about my Savior, and how grateful I am for this time as a missionary to serve him 24/7. It will still never be enough, but at least I can share the blessings. #LightUpTheWorld #WhatShallWeGiveInReturnForSoMuch

I love you all! Merry Christmas!
