      So this was an AWESOME week it started off with us teaching our " investigators" Sven and Olaf  we taught both of them the plan of salvation. But first the laptop lady came and gave us tablets as you can tell from my picture they are really cool!
 
      Anyways my companion and I have really noticed that we have gotten much better at German and teaching it is really incredible. When we taught the members on Friday we had a native German and he told me that he could tell I had a fell for the language and said I would have be able to speak perfect German and then proceeded to give my companion a German dictionary haha. He also gave us Lindor chocolate it was super yummy! The other person we taught told us we would be able to speak German really well after the 4th week.
      Then Saturday was pretty boring at least it was pretty much the same as any other day to me haha oh wait on Saturday we started doing spiritual thoughts for the later class and lucky me I was chosen to do the first one.. woot! After I did it though my teacher pointed at me and said she is ready to go to Germany! haha so my teachers have a lot of confidence in me but I don't know I am still really scared to go haha. But I am also very ready to leave the mtc haha it is great and all but I really fell like I will learn a lot more when I actually get out in the field.
     Anyways Sunday was awesome we had this lady come and talk to us for relief society her name was Mary Edmunds she was super funny but also super spiritual she is probably my favorite speaker yet. Then for our night time devotional we had the director of missionary media come and speak it was super cool he talked about all the advertising that is going on in the world he said a lot about New York and England. Did you know there is 240 double decker buses in England! That is a fourth of all the double decker buses! Anyways I thought it was interesting.
     Then on Monday I had an interview with Sister Covey and she talked all in German to me. Everyone else in the class she spoke some English to so that was cool hehe. She said that when the teachers get together and talk about us they say that I am always happy and a hard worker and that I am good at German. But the most important thing they said that they notice in me is that I am a natural leader! That was surprising to me I don't really see myself as a leader. She said that I  need to continue to be a leader and that it is an really good talent to have. She also said that I need to set a goal for these last 2 weeks in the mtc because they are the 2 weeks that will really determine how my mission will go. My goal is to speak more German. It is really hard because my companion doesn't understand a lot of the time so I have to explain what I say I all the time.. it is kind of like charades haha A lot of the time I give up and just talk to her in English haha so I need to work on that. But that was about it for this week. Oh also this week I started lifting weights so my arms won't be so weak haha an elder is like my trainer haha. Anyways I really hope everyone is doing wonderfully LOVE YOU ALL
