Sister Morata: Solo Sisterin'

1/24/17
HELLO AGAIN MY FRIENDS

It is officially week #seven in the CTM and last night/this morning we said goodbye to the half of our district that is leaving for the field! It was so hard. Last night we had a "graduation ceremony" and "senior superlatives" (I may or may not have won for "Best Dancing Lamanite Woman") and had our last district prayer. I am so so very grateful to have met all these people and have learned something unique and special from each one of them and sorry I'll try not to make this email as sappy as last week's LOL.

So this week is gonne be a little (a lottle) weird since I'm a solo sister with three Elders! Back at school I was so used to going to class or going grocery shopping or going to work by myself and I was fine but after being attached at the hip to someone 24/7 for the past six weeks, I feel awkward not having someone to even go to the bathroom with!

Okay so when we do practice teaching appointments it's kind of really weird because normally when there's a solo sister, she teaches along with two elders but since we have a trio of elders, they kinda split us up so two elders teach together and I teach with one elder (????). So there have been many, many instructors who have stopped us in the hallway on our way to teaching appointments because they're like WHERE ARE YOUR COMPANIONS (since it's a big no-no to be hanging out one elder/one sister) and we're like afdljadfjsorry hahaha our instructors told us to do this slçadjflsd.

It's pretty great though. Our elders (my elders?) are super nice and tell me all the time to just tell them if I'm feeling lonely becuase they don't want me to feel that way and it's great! Also, they tend to walk in "alpha formation" around me whenever we go places as a district and they pretend that they're my security guards.

Hahaha so I guess that's it for this week at the CTM! Probably won't be able to email again for a couple weeks so please know now that I love you all! And please continue to send me pictures because I love pictures of you!!
