Dalawa lang...
Kamusta y'all!
Well this week was certainly an adventure. Being
in a trio is super fun, but it has its challenges. Especially when
there's only one CR(bathroom) and we don't have any running water in the
morning. But as of this morning our trio is no more. Sister Bitancor
was transferred to... Santiago! We just found out last night, and we
were sad to say goodbye. But we're still in the same zone so that's fun.
It feels weird to just have two of us. I'm always worried that we're
missing someone. Sister Bitancor was only with us for almost three
weeks, but it definitely feels like a lot longer with all we've been
through.
Lately we've been teaching the Domingo family and
they are so great. They're the family of one sister in our ward, and she
comes with us to teach them almost every day. They're always so excited
to see us, and it's so much fun to teach them. We're so blessed to be
in this area and to have the opportunity to teach these people. Their
faith and determination even when things are hard helps us overcome our
own challenges. I'm excited to see them progress and to find others we
can help through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
1. Teaching Sister Caren with part of her family
Diffun used to be split into two areas, so they had four
mattresses, and 1 bed plus 1 bunkbed. So that worked out okay.
Unfortunately we only had two desks, so Sister Bitancor just used the
table. We were going to try to get another desk, but I guess we don't
need to anymore. But if they end up putting another companionship here
we'll need to make some adjustments and get some desks.
So
burgers are a thing here. Which is good, though I haven't had like a
good burger yet. We have Mcdonalds here, and they serve hamburgers, but
they're Mcdonalds hamburgers. Also they serve fried chicken with rice,
because you can't have a meal without rice. They also have these little
burger stands where you can get buy 1 get one free for super cheap which
is fun, but they're really tiny. I've tried pizza here once, but it's
different. There tomato sauce tastes different here, it's sweeter. So
their pizza is sweet and so is their spaghetti. It's really good, but
it's really different too. People always make spaghetti for special
occasions because you can make a lot of it for pretty cheap.The
mall/supermarket sells American brand food which is really expensive,
and then they also have their Philippines off brands which are still
good- though different.
I pretty much am just not picky at
all anymore, though maybe it's just here? I don't know. People just
serve me food and I eat it and it tastes good. Like earlier Sister
Manumaleuga told me to try something, and she said it had octopus and I
didn't even bat an eye. I just ate it and it was yummy. But it's fun.
The food here is really good, and even if there's something I don't like
as much, there's always rice so it's fine
Ingat y'all!
