K, sorry for not being able to send anything last Monday...No time to do anything! Anyways I only have a little bit of time cause the Aomori Zone and Morioka Zones are doing training here at the Honbu and we are going on Splits with some people. I've been told that splits are when the miracles happen! And it totally is true. I went on splits in Kamisugi a few weeks ago and it was ridiculous, I tell you! We found like 7 Potential's and we taught a lesson to like 5 of them...that is crazy good! So after that day I realized the truth of the statement of Splits bring Miracles. But today is not really a split but it kinda is and I'm sure all of you are comprehending my vocabulary greatly...haha. I wouldn't understand me if I wasn't on a mission! Anyways, so yeah life in the Honbu is great! I can't compare it with anything, but I get to see and meet pretty much every missionary. Anytime they have a Leadership Training with the Pres EVERYONE comes and lives in our apartment, so this morning we had like 18 missionaries sleeping in our apartment...haha, so yeah, anytime we have a training or if missionaries are leaving or if missionaries are just arriving or any reason they need to come to talk with Tateoka Kaicho (President Tateoka) they come live in our apartment. Another benefit (or anti-benefit) of the Honbu is that you live with the AP's and they have the car, so we can hitch rides and stuff. But most of the time they take us out to eat all the time and waste all our money! So I've been eating out a lot since we don't have time to go back to the Apartment and make food stuffs. Anyways...this last week has been really hard to find people. We go streeting for hours at a time and find 0 PI's and 0 New Investigator's, so it feels like we just waste the hours away trying to find people. Hopefully the Lord will bless us with some people soon! What we are doing for the most part is trying to strengthen the Less Actives and work with the Investigators we already have. We met Abe Shimai the other day and when we visited her she didn't answer the door for a while, then as we were leaving she opened the door and she is this really sweet, old lady but she doesn't have a voice box, so I was pretty much stranded and let Takaki choro talk to her cause I can't read the lips of japanese grandma's yet...not yet!...haha, but yeah so she said that she has felt the devils power so strongly and she was so happy we came to visit her. She hasn't been going to church lately so that was the original reason we even decided to go visit her, but it was good, I think! I couldn't understand much, but the spirit was there...as well as countless mosquitoes...I decided that I hate "ka" (Japanese for mosquito...) for some reason ka's love hands I've found out...my hands are ridiculously chewed up...so I don't like them at all! Anyways, yeah all is going well! One thing is for sure, that if I keep eating out like I am I'm definatly going to gain some kg's...but I think I've decided that Japanese food is too good, so I'm don't know if I can constrain myself...Anyways, I wish I could have more time to take some more pictures or something...words aren't fun at all, are they? Hopefully next monday!
Dear Mother,
I'm pretty sure I've have answered all of your questions already, but I will attempt to answer them again and answer your new questions...haha. Sato-san, the English lover, we are meeting with him on Sept 10th so I don't know much about him other then that. In order to become a new I you just need to teach a principle of the gospel and pray and set a SPECIFIC yakusoku, so our yakusoku is on the 9 gatsu 10, so yeah. Do I do lessons? I don't know what that question means. Yes I teach lessons...I also teach English class. I taught the Beginners class the other day, but now I'm teaching Intermediate, so yeah, I pretty much go where ever they need me to teach. Yes, there is grocery stores everywhere and we always buy veggitables so don't worry! Haha...ummm, lately we've been going out to eat so we don't do much cooking, but usually when we do cook. I cook the food while Takaki choro calls people and does his Leadership stuff. Yes, we live in the only apartment that has more then one doryogumi living in it. We live with the Ap's and then us. I bought a used bicycle for 100$. It was Elder Aida's bike and he left on the transfer I got here. I bought a dictionary for 1 man 2 sen gurai. So it was really cheap, but it's really cool. Cody and Kami have their own locker! Cool! So they don't have to share? No I can't look at the SOJH website...I don't have time to do it. Take some pictures with Cody and Kami in front of the school and send them to me. What is Cody's Eagle scout project? I don't even know what it is...He hasn't written me back!!! Why is Humidity good??? Humidity is Horrible! haha...just kidding, it's not horrible, but I'm getting used to it now, so it doesn't really bother me. Wow, Brandon and Linsay got married...it's about time! Haha...Cool news, thanks for the update! Love you!
