Denial is not just a river in Egypt

Sooooooooooooo this week will mark my year mark. That's CRAZZZYYYYY!!!! And so, I'm in denial. What? Missions end? That's crazy talk!!! Honestly there are things that I look forward to about life in 6 months (naps, pants, ovens, cheese) but feels just like I'll have a weeklong P-day in America with my family, and then I'll come back out here.

In any case.

This week was a great week!!

West point is still the exact opposite of Sheung Shui, and I'm still rocking it. The Law family took us out this week to an AMAZING buffet. The salad was amazing (It's been MONTHS since I've had a salad!!) and the steak and mashed potatoes were perfect, but by far the best part (other than the sparkling conversation) was the all you can eat ice cream. Oh my goodness. It was to die for. The ice cream was imported from EUROPE and is creamier that Hagen Dazs. CREAMIER THAN HAGEN DAZS!! I am not exaggerating when I say that I ate more ice cream than the rest of lunch combined :) Thank you Lau family!! And it doesn't end there, we started talking about food that we miss from home and mentioned a couple different foods that are in HK, but way to expensive for us to buy. And they bought all the food we mentioned and brought them to church to give them to us!!!!!  

This week for P-day we are *drumroll please* MAKING A PILLOW FORT!! We are going to move the bunkbeds to make a pillow fort, and then we are going to watch ALL OF THE THINGS!!! Bible Videos, Ephraims Rescue, Emma Smith, Mormon Messages, and honestly a little bit of General Conference. And we shall feast on chocolate chip cookies, guac and chips, and smores. Long story short, I am VERY happy :D 

We don't often get a chance to teach real people in english, but we did this week!! She is actually from Nepal, and she is the coolest person ever! She has such a believing heart! When I recited the first vision she stopped me and said "I have chills! This is so powerful!!" It was the first time in my mission that some one was actually reacted to the first vision and not my recitation. It's normally something like "You memorized this!? How long did it take you? Your Chinese is much better when you memorize things. Maybe you should memorize more things?" It was so nice to just have that little reconfirmation of "YEAH!! This is this most amazing thing in the WORLD!! Got appeared to a 14 year old boy, and restored the same church that Jesus Christ Himself established!!! HOW COOL IS THAT?!?!?"

The church is true, the book is blue. God is aware of us, and has a plan for all of us. Just ask Him, and He will remind you.
