Surprise Pre-moves!

Well, the last two days were surprising. Last night about 7:30 we got a call saying that the mission President felt he should do a few transfers before the scheduled transfer day. So I was informed that I would be moving to Wandsworth with Elder Palmer and Elder White would be getting Elder White. Two Elder Whites. And that transfer's would be in the morning. So we went home and I packed my things. I could barely sleep last night because I was so excited to come here! One main reason is that Wandsworth is the ward right next to the Brixton ward (my first ward), and they share a chapel. So on Sunday I'll get to see all the members of that ward! What a cool thing to happen! And I'm also just excited to be back in London. A few days ago we had to pass through Clapham Junction to get somewhere else, and even just passing it on the train I felt happier. I think I have a special love for London, it being my first area here.

I'm also excited to be serving with Elder Palmer. We came into the mission at the same time, and we have a similar way of doing missionary work and that'll be good. I'm also excited to not be living with a member. :) It was nice and everything, but after a year of it, it's nice to have a flat. I'm sure I'll have lots of good stories by next week, so be prepared! I'm convinced this is going to be one of the best times of my mission. Everything seemed to work out perfectly so far, and I can look back and see how nearly everything has played a part  leading up to now. Okay, I have to go, but just know I'm really happy and excited. Bye!
