WEEK 6....A TITAN INVASION!
Just a quick note today from Nick! It is his P-Day, but he said we was going to try to be a host to welcome the Pinnock's and other Titans to the MTC.
From Nick: This week was long, but we're starting to finally feel like we know the language. We're working hard but it takes a lot of time. I can't wait to leave, but being here isn't too bad. I hope you have a good week.
LOVE SEEING THESE FACES!!!
THE TITAN INVASION HAS BEGUN!
Thursday, July 11, 2013
Okay so I've been here a month! Crazy right, only 23 more to go! The fourth
of July was pretty anticlimactic, but we watched 17 miracles and the
Stadium of Fire Fireworks show from Campus. I hear a lot of people are
coming into the MTC this month. I can't wait to see everyone. The language
is going well, but it's still just memorization and some pretty tough
grammar. Pretty soon we'll have 4 fake investigators. It's pretty hard to
keep track of everyone and what we've taught. I started reading Jesus the
Christ, which is a pretty cool book. I hope everyone is doing well! Not
much going on this week!

Week 3 with photos of old friends and new ones!
Okay so It's the end of week 3 and it has inched by ever so slowly. The temple closed for the duration of our stay, which was a bummer, but now we have an hour or two to nap on P-Day. We learned more about reading and grammer. The language is mostly memorizing, but there are a lot of odd customs cambodians have that we have to learn about. You aren't allowed to touch heads, or point the bottom of your feet at anyone, it's worse than the middle finger. My district is doing decently well, and we are slowly learning the language. We listened to a conference talk in cambodian, and couldn't pick out more than 10 words in the entire thing. The language is slightly getting easier to speak, but then the teachers throw in gramatical twists. I'm happy I only have 6 more weeks here, we have to find fun in little ways. We have a mini basketball hoop in our room, which is pretty fun the play games with. The MTC is fun and nomatter how long you are here you learn something new everday!
Love everyone a lot!
