Hey everyone!
This week I got sung to by a bunch of older Chinese ladies - multiple times so that was pretty fun haha. They were both in english classes, but for different reasons. The first was cause it was my birthday last wednesday, and someone in the class somehow found out it was my birthday so they led everyone else in singing happy birthday in Chinese to me haha, it was super nice though, I felt so honoured if not little embarrassed
On a different day, I was teaching English privately to just 2 chinese people who weren't able to understand anything in the other class, because they couldn't speak any english whatsoever. So I was teaching them the alphabet and naturally the alphabet song came up so I ended up having to teach two 70-80 year old chinese ladies how to sing the alphabet song, I literally couldn't stop laughing the whole time ahah
In terms of other random things that happened this week, everytime we park our car at the chapel a ton of birds poop all over the windshield which is super annoying. So I decided instead of having to scrub off all the bird poop, I would dump buckets of water onto our car from the 3rd story of our flat complex. It actually worked really well and now our car doesnt have bird poop all over it haha
I also cut my hair for I think the 5th time with the help of Elder Maruhi. I feel like my hair gets a little worse each time, I already feel bad for the barber that has to fix the past 5 months of poor haircuts
We have a friend, Jordan, who had accepted the invitation to be baptized. He was supposed to be baptized last saturday, but had some concerns come up last second so we took him off baptismal date. But we felt like we should invite our mission president, President Johnson, into our next lesson with him and have him help us resolve his concerns. It ended up being one of the most powerful lessons I've ever been in on my mission, President Johnson led out the whole lesson and literally resolved all of Jordan's concerns within 15 minutes. All Elder Maruhi and I did was bear our testimony and I shared a scripture I was prompted to share. It was sooo cool to watch and now Jordan should hopefully be baptized next monday! So we're excited for that!
