Light at the End of the Tunnel

Well, after my post last week I feel a bit embarrassed.  Now that the storm has passed I feel like I made it out to be way worse than it was.  So first, I apologize for my dramatics.  Haha.  Okay, well this week was better than the last.  I got a haircut.  It looks almost exactly the same, but it feels better and I had them thin it way out so my hair would no longer try to eat my face.  So that was a refreshing little change.  Other than that, in some places things have gotten worse and in others they've gotten better.  For instance one of our recent converts has completely dropped off the radar and will no longer answer our calls or come to church, but another recent convert who we had been trying to get in contact with since I first came to Douliu met up with us and came to church with us for the first time yesterday.  I also found out that due to a newly implemented mission rule I will no longer be able to teach my Advanced English Class students.  I super love all of them and was quite seriously depressed for a while when I found out.  I am moving to teach the little kids class with Sister Ting.  So, I guess we'll see how that goes.  But, a good thing that happened was being able to meet a few new people at a YSA Fiesta activity at the church.  I hope that we will be able to meet up with some of the new people we met.  

Some things that just made me smile.
The Elders told us about a place called La Maison that sold a dish with with a lot of melted cheese.  I love cheese.
Yeh Zhanglao drew all of us.  For some reason us Sisters have some alter-ego or amped transformation version of ourselves as well...  
Today we went and helped He mama do some of her Guo Nian cleaning.  I love He MAMA!!!

Take it a day at a time.  Learn the gospel.  Live the gospel.  Love the gospel.  :]
