The MTC-Week Number One
Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 9:06 AM,
Ohayoo Gozaimasu! (good morning) Found out that P-day is actually on Tuesday. Even though its only been a week I feel like I have been here for months. Everyone in my district is Subarashi! (awesome) And guess what, Jonathon Pierson is my companion...Which has actually been a challenge, we're very different and we have had some issues, but god clearly had a plan for us, we are the only 2 in our district going to Sendai, everyone else is going to Tokyo. Our teacher is awesome, we have like an 8 hour class of Nihongo (Japanese) everyday, the first 4 days he only spoke Nihongo, but then a few days ago he started speaking Eigo to us so he switches between the 2. My time here has been the most spiritual and difficult time of my life, a week in and we have learned almost everything I learned in the first semester of Nihongo. By the second day we already knew how to say our prayers in Japanese and bear our testimonies, the only time we can only speak N
Anyways, I hope everything is going well.
ihongo is during sacrament meeting, we all have to write talks in Nihongo each week and 2 people get picked on the spot to give their talk. My first day here we were having a devotional and they asked if anyone could play the piano, no one said anything and then my companion looked at me, so I have played the piano everyday so far. I've never spent so much time focusing on just reading the Morumon Sho (Book of Mormon). Our third day we started teaching an "investigator" (he is a member of the church) But each day we give him a 30 minute lesson and he only speaks Nihongo to us so that all we can speak to him also.
