WEEK 5

Flight Plans

So we fly out of SLC on Monday morning to JFK in New York, and then to Amsterdam, and then to Bucharest. YAYYYYY

On Sunday Sora Anderson and I picked some peppers on our walk to the temple and decided to eat them. It was the hottest thing I've ever tasted in my life but it was fun. I'll send pictures later. At choir on Sunday I gave the closing prayer and when you do that you have to say your name where you're from and where you're going so I did. Then on Wednesday at lunch someone was like Sister Gleason! and I was like hi????? And he was like do you recognize my name???? And it was Christian Rider! from forever ago! He's going to Hawaii speaking Marshallese and he said he figured there weren't many Gleasons in Stockton so I had to be the one he knew. Crazy!
The Nashville Tribute Band came and did the devotional.

On Monday we found out that we had to move because apparently there was something in our ceiling that needed to be fixed that couldn't wait five days until we moved out permanently... so packing up our entire room on Monday night was quite the experience.

Elder Ucedo of the Seventy spoke at the  devotional on Tuesday and it was really good.


Wednesday we got to host again! Way fun. And I finally met some people going to the Modesto mission! I made them write down Weston Ward and my last name so if they ever serve there, they'll say hi. On Wednesday we also finally got our new Italians! Ce bine!!!!! And we didn't even lose anyone at orientation. What a miracle!

This morning we went to the temple and then ate breakfast there. IT WAS HEAVENLY. Definitely worth the $5.80 to avoid eating the MTC food. 

I don't know what else to say. 'Twas a good week. Next time y'all hear from me I'll be in ROMANIA!
On Monday I'll have a new mailing address! If you love me enough to send me stuff all the way to Romania, here it is.
