May 18, 2012
This week has been pretty uneventful. Just a normal week here at the MTC. However, on Tuesday Elder L. Tom Perry came for devotional and talked about the Priesthood and that was a great and powerful talk. I'm still a solo sister and it's awesome! (Now that I've said that I'm probably going to get a companion...) Well I did kind of have a companion this week, because she was in a trio and all her companions left this week to go out into the field. We just planned and went to meals and around campus together but that's about it. But she's leaving this Wednesday so we won't be companions for that much longer and then there will only be 3 beds filled instead of all 6 in our residence hall.

My teaching companion, Elder Jacobsen, and I have been teaching an investigator named Mario (who's really just our teacher acting like this investigator she taught on her mission). Mario is very hard hearted and flat out told us that he doesn't believe in God and that he doesn't want to be Mormon. So it's been fun trying to teach him without just wanting to argue with him about every contridiction he has about the Church. It's good practice for when we get out into the real world....

Today we got up early and went to the Temple first thing in the morning. It was great and I wasn't tired one bit :):) But we are going to catch up on our sleep this afternoon by taking a LONG nap, can't wait!

Well that's all I've got for all you all out there in the real world! Hope you all have a great week!
