Today was fast Sunday. Quite a bit of things occurred today, none really all that important. One thing potentially dangerous was the news that three Elders will be moving in with Elders R, G, and me. That means I’m down to one bed, one closet, and no room. I think it sucks! At least it’s only for a week. There is only 10 days left until I get to the real mission part. I’m kind of ready, but I can’t wait to go.

I’m happy with myself today. I set a goal that I would memorize at least half of the second Hauptgedanke (principle of the discussions) today. And I did! I figured I need to memorize four paragraphs a day to be able to have the whole first discussion memorized before I leave. Realistically, I don’t think I can do that. I at least want to get to the fourth Hauptgedanke.

I’m not speaking as much German as I should. Especially on Sundays and P-Days. Back to the Hauptgedanke, though, I’m so mad that I didn’t start memorizing the discussion from the first day. That will be another goal for me to do, to tell everyone I know that is going on a mission, to start memorizing the discussions. First in English if they are not here at the MTC, or if they are then to start memorizing it in their language. I wish I would have. So much for wishing, it’s the doing that gets things done.
