Life is going by quicker and quicker. I can’t believe I’ve already been here for nearly 3 months, but still every day I realize that my time here is short. I want to keep up the days that I work hard and work even harder on the days that I fall short. I have a goal to be more like Nephi so I will just “go and do” and keep doing my best.
Missionary work is not easy, especially after dark. It makes it a lot harder to navigate the town and it is especially hard to make appointments work. Contacting is near impossible after 6:30pm because everybody goes to bed around 8 pm. So I have a bit more study time in the evenings. I have a new slogan: “Come what may and love it!”
My mom asked me about buying food. We use the barter system a lot and I have to go to different places for different products. Many times, because I am not a native, they try to overcharge me.
