This week was full of craziness, but it was awesome! Monday half of our district was transferred, which was funny because Elder Didkovskiy was leaving and we had become good friends, he's a great elder, from Ukraine (that's as close to Russia as I can get on my mission for all yous who said i'd go to Russia) He was walking away and was like, "how long do you have left?" I thought about it and I HAVE 9 MONTHS LEFT. WHAT THE HECK WHAT THE HECK WHAT THE HECK. Luckily he said, "OK good I'll see you then." Made it seem like I still have ages left, but I'm scared I'm going to blink and its going to be the end of the year. But anyways Sister Ami got in that afternoon and I LOVE HER! Cutest Sister ever! She just finished her training, she's hilarious, she's from Samoa (another crazy Samoan I'm so excited). Then we went to visit Emily out in the Mildura Sisters area since we were spending a week out there because Sister Cobbley is training

Friends and Family This week was probably the hardest on my mission so far, we found out that an elder I was in the MTC with passed away, I found out and was crushed. Luckily as a Sister Training Leader I could call Elder Norman (who was in the MTC with me) and we just sat there in silence (cause you can counsel elders and elders can't counsel sisters) and just cried. My heart is broken! He was such an incredible missionary and elder! Taught me so much working around him!! God knew he needed to be home with him in heaven and his work still isn't done. the work is going forth with so much power on BOTH SIDES OF THE VEIL. This week was a whole lot of not a lot.. When your comp is about ready to go home you spend most time taking tests and helping her prepare to go home. but all is well!  I improved my cooking/baking skills heaps!! used that when we went to visit members, I think they love me!  Then we went to visit this cute less active and her 3 boys are NUTS! imagine as crazy a

ok so i feel like i just wrote because i did like 5 days ago. but anyways after emailing and a long nap (11-3) we went out to the river front and the possums at the river were so cute and nice and i got to pet them and i'll send pictures next week cause sister tokuma won't let me see her phone to get the pics... but the possums here are the cutest thing. We have found that street contacting in the evening is probably the only time people here are outside, so we moved all our studies and go on a walk around the river every night. 1. its so nice and so pretty every night 2. we can watch all the boaters 3. we actually get to talk to people its so nice. Still think street contacting is weird but we are becoming locals and seeing regular people each time and stopping for a chat with them. Family History y'all i reckon its the only thing we should be talking about as missionaries in the first contact otherwise we scare em away!  Thursday we went to follow up with a funny old lady
