Week 3

Pamilya ako!!!!!
Thank you so much fatha for this email! I love hearing, at least once and a while, about how you are all doing. So weird that life still continues outside the MTC. I love it here but I must say I cherish our temple trips and outside gyms purely for the opportunity we have to see the SKY!!!! All the sidewalks here are covered, for good reason. But man! Sometimes I find myself longingly staring out the window during class (imagine this picture- me with my head in my hands, my little asian eyes longingly staring into the distance with the mountains and sky reflecting in the window) He he movie material! anyway... everyone sounds like they're doing great!!!!! I luff it!!!!! I got your postcard Kirin! Thank you! But I need your hawaii address so that I can write you a handwritten, no-typed, letter!!!! I need to hear from you. I've been sinking about you a lot and I see your friends EVERYWHERE! I swear I've seen more of your friends at the MTC than at home. Love ya!
Dad- you're not the CRYPT KEEPER! you are very good looking for your age. ;) I love you too! and I'm so happy about your new gadgets and your new job! You're awesome dadda!
Oh! Thanks for sending me the fun letter from everyone on momo sunday! That was fun! I was a wee bit dissappointed with the food here on fast sunday. It's not quite the same as real food, let alone delicious real food. :)
As for me- I am doing vunderful!!!!! Sister Blake and I review our days every night and EVERY night, no matter how many ups and downs we've had, my response is always "it was a great day". I'm not sure how many times I can be amazed but I'm starting to think it's infinite. :) I love it here. I love the people, I love what I'm learning and I love being a part of this work. I can't wait to be in the Philippines!!!! We teach one of our progressing investigators every day and we also teach volunteers every Thursday night. It's nerve racking but for sure Sis Blake and I are getting the hang of it. Our tagalog is, of course, lacking but we have been complimented twice on it. :) Magandang! We sing in the choir, get to hear from general authorities every week (this week we got to hear from the legal attorney for international stuff and it was so cool! He told us what the church has to go through just to make sure we can have visas and stuff! Amazing!), teach, learn tagalog, eat, and just have a great time! It is definately hard work though, especially because there is hardly ever someone watching over and making sure you're doing what you're supposed to. It's amazing how much the MTC relies on us individually!
I am doing fantastic and I love you all so so so so so so much! I'm proud of my bruzzas! I love my parents! I love Clay! I love my sistas! I love my bruzza in law! I love my Wistisens! I love my friends! I love the Lord and I love being a missionary!! Can I get a WOO WOO! MWAH MWAH MWAH!
Love, Sis. Tamang
