Jensen, Emma

I went on exchanges again this week with my district leader Sister Morse. I absolutely love going on exchanges and I love being able to go into another area for the day. Unfortunately the Sister that drove my car while I was gone left the car door open all night while it was pouring rain. That was super fun to wake up to.  We have spent the rest of the week trying to dry out our car. On the bright side the only seat that got wet was mine...:/ Something that I am absolutely terrible at is memorizing things. Like I am so bad! One of the things we get to do in our mission is give tram tours to tourists from the Polynesian Culture Center to the Visitors Center. I have been working on memorizing the script for SOO LONG and I finally finished memorizing it this week. I am so proud of myself haha.  We almost got a duck to walk into our house My STL was having visa issues and ended up getting sent home. We all went to sat goodbye to her before she left and it was the saddest thin...

Side effects from not eating sugar: I'm always hungry and never satisfied with what I eat, I'm grumpy all the time, constant headaches, and I am less bloated. Besides the less bloating I do not see the reason for wanting to not eat sugar because this is the worst! On the bright side Kawehi told us that keeping the word of wisdom has been very easy so glad one of us is doing well. We met the sweetest lady on one of our trams. When we got to the temple she came up to me and started asking me different questions about our faith and the temple. She told me that she was Muslim and very happy in her beliefs but loved learning about what other people believe. Our conversation was SO good and we both learned so much from each other:) turns out we both have alot of the same beliefs, especially when it comes to life after death, we just call them something different they they do. I love when I am able to have interactions like this at the Visitors Center where we are both able to learn ...

I think from now on maybe just assume that if I don't send an email it is because my car broke down.  Last week the fuel pump broke in our new car 2 hours away from Laie so we spent most of our p day waiting for someone to come pick me and my companion up. The Elder that is over cars in my mission actually thinks I am cursed with bad luck when it comes to cars because in the last 9 weeks I have had 3 tire leaks, 1 tire pop, and now the fuel pump broke. We did see miracles that day though, like it broke down at the one spot we would be able to pull over and get off the road and we picked up food on the way home so we had something to eat while we were waiting. So even though I am cursed, God is still looking out for me General Conference was so amazing! We invited the Sisters that live on the other side of the duplex we live in to come over and watch it with us cause we have a TV. We wanted to make it comfortable so we carried there couch over so there was enough seating. It wa...
