To start with my funny moment of the week I woke up Tuesday and took off my shirt to go take a shower and passed by the mirror and naturally couldnt pass by the mirror without stopping to look and I realized I had a 6 inch long stick bug taking a nap in my chest hair. So that was a classic freak out and honestly wished there was a camera rolling.
First off, shout out to my dad who has a birthday today! I know how lucky I am to have him as a father and he knows how grateful I am for him. So be sure to call him or write him to say how awesome he is! Love you pops.
Well, had my first week as a trainer! It was different to say the least. At first when I was told last Sunday that I'd be training, I was a little worried. But most of my worries and doubts have since left. It's just A LOT of responsibility especially in my area. Our ward just doesn't help us out very much. I have a ward mission leader who hasnt served a mission. Not much help from that department. I have a class to teach every Sunday on my own as well. With Elder F it wasnt too bad because we both were able to work together with ideas and we always had the same ideas and were good friends and were always there for each other. But to be completely honest my companion came as a less active recent convert so naturally doesnt know much about the lessons or the mission haha. So its difficult really having to do literally everything in our area.
At first my new comp came somewhat errogant and a little prideful (as did I and the majority of missionaries who enter the field). But after making him try to teach the majority of the lessons a few times, he realized he's got a ways to go, he humbled down a little bit haha. Now he has a desire to learn and is studying hard so I'm proud of him! We are different... lol. Which again is challenging because Elder C and I were buds for the most part and Elder F and I were super tight, but I still love him and am trying to be there for him and teach him well.
