It`s been a
good week, with LOTS of adventures. On Tuesday we had our zone
conference in the mission home and it was AWESOOOOOOOOOOME!!!!! I love
zone conferences! The best part was that the Wall's had a part in the
program talking about family history, so they came down from Buin and I got to see them and talk to them about everyone there. I love them so
much! I was soooooo happy to see them! (They are the senior couple that
got to Buin in my last cambio there.) They told me about Ana and Rene
and everyone, and every one is great! And that always makes me so happy!
:) :) :) I get to see them again tomorrow BECAUSE tomorrow I`m going
to .... drum roll please.... are you feeling the suspense yet? I am! I
am SOOOOOOOOO excited? so WHERE am I going??? oh yeah! that`s
right!..... THE TEMPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D POR
FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNN!!!! [FINALLY] I am so so so
so so so so so (times infinity) excited! All our group that is leaving
is going to the temple tomorrow, so I am going to go with Hna Sutherlin. President and Sister Warne are going and we are all going to have
lunch with them, and the Walls are going too! It`s going to be AWESOME!
The only not awesome part is that Hna Sutherlin and I have to wake up at
like 5:30 because we have to be AT the temple by 9:30 because the
session starts at 10. And with taking the bus and the metro and not
knowing our way around Santiago, etc, etc, we want to leave the house at
like 6:30 to make sure we get there on time (y con calma) [and be relaxed]. BUT I AM
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!!!!! I'm dying inside! I think I'm not
going to be able to sleep tonight! I feel like a little kid on Christmas
eve, KNOWING that tomorrow is going to be the best day EVEEERRRRRRRRRRR! EEEEEP!
So this week was my burfday, it was AWESOME!!! Definitely better than last year! haha My comp planned a little
surprise party for me with the Campos family and invited a bunch of
members and it was adorable and I love everyone!!! The members here are
the BEST! Also on my birthday we ate lunch with Hna Angie (yes, of
course i remember mom every time I'm with her) that day and she is a
pastelera [pastry chef] and she cooks SOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!! To DIE for! And on my bday
she made me TWO cakes! haha one JUST to bite it, and the other she made
me CHEESE CAKE! because I told her it was my fave (they don't make that
here, but she is super pro and always looks up gringo recipes on the
internet). So you`re probably wondering what I mean by bite the cake,
well for those who don't know, it is tradition here in CHile, and in a
lot of Latin-America, that the person who`s birthday it is has to bite
their birthday cake after blowing out the candles (el mordisco), and you
have to try to do it the fastest and sneakiest you cake, or their shove
your face into the cake... well... let`s just say I`m a newbee at
this.... I had to two cakes, one for lunch, and one for the surprise
party at night, the second time was much worse, I had frosting up to in
my EYELASHES! And I couldn't breath through my nose, I had to go straight
to the bathroom and blow out the half pound of frosting that I had up my
nose haha, ok, maybe it wasn`t a half pound, but it sure FELT like a
lot! hahaha But to be honest it was super fun and I LOVED it! :)
