alright so this week has been a bit crazy! there's been so much going on within this last week!!! so pretty much to start off the week I learned that it's not a good thing when you forget that you're supposed to have a lesson planned for your "investigator" and you don't have one so you put one together in 5 minutes.... Ya it's a terrible idea so don't do it!!! learned that one the hard way also learned that its very useful to wright those things down in your daily planner helps a lot! but ya so i had forgot we had to do that because we had been busy the previous week and we go into class and our teacher/ "investigator" asked us if we were prepared to teach him and me and my Kaupod (companion) had told him no that we forget we were supposed to do that so pretty much he was pretty pissed about it and definitely made us regret it tungod(because) as soon as we wen't in to teach him he wouldn't even let us in the door... but we finally got let in there and we were teaching on the Pagpanumbalik (the restoration) and as soon as we got to talking to him about prophets is when he let us have it... He kept asking us questions that we didn't know how to answer yet and so he asked like what are prophets and so i did my best to explain to him what prophets were and after that i told him who Thomas S Monson was and then he asked why don't we have prophets today? That one was the hard one to explain in Ilonggo... and he never really listened to what i had to say pero(but) our next lesson with him we were prepared and answered all of his previous questions and now hes going to church and has a baptism date for the 20th!!!! so it all worked out really good :) Also second.... this was probably the worst part of the week... All of my Photo's got deleted from my camera!!!! Oh my goodness i was ticked about that one pero(but) its ok dont worry i got more photo's that i took for you guys and made sure i got plenty of them! 3rd. I had TRC for the first time last thursday so this thursday will be my second time but TRC went really good! our lesson was really good and the people we taught thought me and my companion had been here for 5 or 6 weeks and were shocked when we told them it had only been 2! but it was such a wonderful experience and it was so different and felt so much more real! i seriously cant wait to get out into the mission field and to be able to teach the people in the Philippines even though they speak way to fast and i still struggle with knowing how to speak and understand the language but there was a Philippino here that spoke to us in Ilonggo and wow i felt so unprepared to leave in 3 weeks! So I got made Zone Leader this past sunday so i thought that was something really cool and felt super happy about that!!!! :) haha now time to shoot to be a zone leader in the field ;) but it was really cool and the branch presidents wife was telling me a story today about how when she was thinking about the new zone leader that my face popped into her head and she went and told her husband about it and said to him that she knows that i need to be made the zone leader and i guess he had prayed about it and had the same feeling so i thought that was something really astig!(cool) 1 last thing that i can think of... the 3rd week in the MTC sucks honestly because i guess its the week that everyone just ends up having like a mental break and we got to experience that! its mainly just because thats when the language gets the hardest and it really just sinks in because you only have 3 more weeks left until you're shipped off to the field pero(but) wow. it is real and it was probably the hardest trial i've had yet here at the MTC
