Hello! How are you? This week has been a bit uneventful. In fact, it's been the longest week in the mission so far, haha. Not that that's a bad thing, it's just how it was. Oh yeah, remember the 9 dinner I was so excited about last week? Well, those are about the only things that went through. Everything else cancelled or just didn't happen, so even though I ate more food than I wanted to and now have a fridge full of leftovers, I feel a bit unfulfilled this week.
We spent a lot more time than usual trying to find people to teach this week. But we didn't find a single person, haha. But this next week looks more promising. I think I said that last week, but this week really does look better. So hopefully it doesn't deceive me like last week did. :)
There were two days in a row this week where basically nothing happened. So at the end of those I was naturally feeling quite down. But then we listened Joseph B Wirthlin's talk, "Come what may and love it", and that talk made me feel a lot better. And I think consequently, the rest of the week I had a much better attitude and I learned quite a lot actually. So overall I guess it was a good week in a way.
There were quite a lot of funny things that happened this weekend, and a lot of them involved people being drunk. Probably because it was Halloween. But there was this one guy who was drunk off his rocker who was walking down the street and he tried to steal a bowl of bananas from a fruit vendor. He then dropped the bowl, tried to pick it back up, and totally faceplanted into the ground and was blacked out for about 5 minutes. After that, he just got up and staggered on down the street, completely forgetting about the bananas. Haha, it was quite funny to watch, but I do feel bad for him. Another drunk guy tried to kiss Elder Keck on the cheek this weekend. So yeah, drinking is bad for you.
Halloween was weird, there weren't a lot of kids trick or treating. But there were a lot of people getting drunk! I guess that's what Halloween has become in the minds of most Londoners.
Alright, well I've got to be going now, but thanks for all the emails and letters and everything! I love you guys, bye!
