Here's a couple sobrang ASTIG entries from my journal. (P.S. Just finished my first journal, 367 pages! Am I winning mom? :)
No. 1
Phew! What a day! Zone Interviews were great! First, President Sperry gave a workshop on Scripture Marking. Then Sister Sperry gave one on Personal Hygeine. (Did you know it only takes 20 seconds to make a first impression? I didn't :P) After that we played the Book of Mormon Scripture Chase game. I love that game. Maybe mostly cuz I'm good at it haha :P
After that we played Jeopardy: Philippines Quezon City North Mission style :) It was a blast. The Filipino Elders are AWESOME :) They're always smiling, joking around and laughing. In my first area there were only 2 Filipinos out of 16 Elders but it's mostly Filipinos here. WOOT :)
After that I had my interview with President Sperry. It went great :) He told me that he really appreciates me and that I'm a real asset to the mission. He said he loves my positive attitude and that I'm a great example to the other missionaries. He said "You're going to become a great leader in this mission." Ahhh! I got butterflies in my stomach haha. SUPER scary but pretty cool at the same time :)
I got in a fight today...... with a COCKROACH! No not a cockroach. a COCKROACH haha He was HUGE and decided to show up at the perfectly wrong time. So I was taking a shower when he decided to run out from under the toilet! "Yikes!" I thought, "I can't fight a COCKROACH naked!" But I didn't have a choice. He started running towards me..... but then he got close to the door, I opened it and he ran out. PHEW! haha :)
I finished my shower in peace, got dressed, and went to WAR. :) This world wasn't big enough for the 2 of us. Either he had to go or I did. And so I set out for revenge. My weapon of choice? Size 12 Nike's. He didn't stand a chance :) I found him on the curtains and sprayed him with my squirt gun (ok ok.... spray bottle but squirt gun's more fun. Savvy?:) That got his attention. All of a sudden I had 2 whole ounces of COCKROACH fury barreling towards me at...... well the speed of a cockroach :P My life flashed before my eyes! I thought it was all over! Then he got within leg's reach...... and..... I STOMPED him :) GAME OVER my friend :o) The only problem with being the victor? You have to clean up the loser's guts haha :P
Haha, pretty exciting stuff goin on in the life of DA BEEJ :)
Sorry it's short. LOVE Y'ALL!
