Running Low On Money And Light

This week was a bit harder and way longer but so so good!  ☆Had transfers this week! I think I was way too comfortable with Hermana Espinoza lol we got along too well so President decided to switch up the entire mission. Every sister companionship changed except for one. BUT not me hehe I got a new comp and shes the cutest! Her name is Hermana Xivir (shee-vere), shes from Guatemala, is 9 months into her mission, and is about 5ft haha I'm literally a giant next to her. But we're both so excited for this transfer and shes pumped to have a gringo as her comp. ☆Went contacting yesterday and at first we didn't know where to go, but we prayed and I got a strong prompting that we need to contact while walking to our friends house! While walking I found SO many chosen people (which doesn't happen super often especially where we were) and we also got to visit our friend Maria who has literally canceled every lesson with us cuz she's been sick...for the past 3 weeks... anyway...

What's poppin?! How are you all? I want to hear from youuuu plz write me when u can! To be honest nothing super crazy happened this week. Gets a little repetitive doing the same thing every day haha, BUT so much good progress this week so here we goooo: ☆started english classes and we invited about 40 people and guess how many people came? Ya only 1 person RIP but with time and patience more people will come ☆there are days where my spanish just stops working. Pretty much I have like and on and off button thats turns off when I'm tired which is pretty much all the time so that's a party it's funny cuz when I'm having a hard day with my spanish I'll say something like "wow my spanish isn't working today" and my comp will say "ya it's not good you need to work on it". Great boost of my self esteem thanks comp it means a lot and just warms my heart ☆we'll contact for hours and I'll successfully get like 10 numbers and usually onl...

Buenos tardes mis queridos!! P.S. if you don't wanna read the whole email just skip to the bottom for the spiritual thought i promise it's worth it! This week was FULL of miracles that are insane that I can't even begin to describe! Basically because I've been pushing my comp to contact more, we finally reached our goals for the week, crazy how that works Today we went to Presidents house for a sisters conference which is a partyyy but real quick I'll tell 2 stories from this week. And don't worry don't worry, we got permission to send emails and call our families late because of the conference but GUESS WHAT! I got to see and hangout with my cute comp hermana friend from the mtc all day today because I haven't seen her for 3 months and she lives 5 hours away and I also had to say goodbye to my favorite trainer and possible comp in the whole world hermana mendez bc she goes home next week and ngl I'm mega depressed abt don't even ask me abt it I ...

BUENOS TARDES MIS QUERIDOS!!! This week felt like the blink of an eye for, like I can't even think of the things that happened other conference bc conference was SO FLIPPING GOOD...but we'll get to that later ☆we had exchanges again this week and I went back to ParaĆ­so just like every other exchange lol I basically know all the people there and I know the area like the back of my hand but when I came back to my area I felt nauseas and my comp felt the same and then it just went downhill from there lol. We had lunch and lets just say ive mever had such a hard time eating food in all my life, then we stayed in the Church building for 6 hours calling and waiting for our 2 friends to come for their lessons then they canceled anyways our stomachs were dying then we woke up the next morning and couldn't even get out of bed so we had to call the mission nurse for advice. All she told us was to eat rice, bananas, and toast...don't know why but it actually worked a little bit ha...
