I've arrived at the MTC!!!

Just received by post today, January 31st. (Go Royal Post!)

Ola' Familia!!!

WOW. It is my second day and it is already NUTS. (Meaning lots of things including super, awesome, scary, frustrating, fun and spiritual utopia.) Chances are you might get my 1st e-mail before this letter, but our branch president told us to write home to our families to say that we are okay. So...I am okay!!! Staying positive and happy and excited beyond belief. I am so grateful and happy to be here! This is the only chance in my life that I am able to do this! We have had one class of Portuguese so far and we are supposed to teach a 35 minute Portuguese lesson tomorrow...we have come up with alternative things to pass the time, haha. Like sing a hymn, and have him explain a scripture, because we can't even carry on a 5 minute conservation yet! But we will let the Spirit talk, not us. That's the real language we and the investigator needs to understand.

The MTC is so much FUN! Missionary HEAVEN!!! We have been to workshops, zone leader meetings, personal study, language study, meals...I am learning so much from the people around me! I am committing 100% of myself. I am not holding back, like Mom told me to do. Everything is great, this is a dream come true. I know this is where I am supposed to be. LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU!!! I'll tell you more details in the e-mail.

P.S. I LOVE wearing my tag. I wear it 24/7, even when sleeping
