WEEK 57

"So did Voldemort Die of old age or What?"

Monday August 14
We met with a random guy from our phone who turns out he lives in the apartment above us. We walked home together and then fifteen minutes after we get to our apartment, he knocks on our door and had brought us ardei umpluti. Stuffed peppers. Random. They were pretty good though.

Tuesday August 15
The only notable thing from Tuesday was meeting with Otilia. It was a weird meeting. She was like "okay now I wanna teach you guys something!" So she read us a bunch of weird Bible verses about marriage and taught us how to be good wives. Weird. 

Wednesday August 16
I was sick all morning. We cancelled everything and I slept all day basically. I might have a stomach worm  or I'm just lactose intolerant now.  We went out for dinner with the ILP girls later in the evening and it was good. Two of them are getting married like as soon as they get home. Like, they have a month to plan their wedding. WHAT?

Thursday August 17
We did limba study and comp study and weekly planning and then we were supposed to meet with a guy named Nicu and the elders to pass Nicu off to them but Nicu bunged and then the elders weren't even there anyway. 

Friday August 18
District meeting was chill. Salad box for lunch. Contacting. We showed up to an appointment an hour early because our phone freaked out and was an hour ahead and neither of us noticed. LOL we both wear watches. We're dumb. But we met with Otilia and talked about personal progress and we're gonna do the program with her :) Then games night. The elders made ice cream sandwich cookies. Sora Wright smashed my foot with a chair and now my toe is swollen and my whole foot hurts :))) 

Saturday August 19
We did some contacting and had a good day and then we had a baptism! 

Mihaita got baptized and it was so great. Highlight of the day. Also the special musical number got sick so the elders called and asked if we could do something. We were like yeah, fine. This was fifteen minutes before the baptism. Then Elder Redenbaugh is like wait, what if Sister Wright and I just duet The Hills Are Alive from The Sound of Music? WE THOUGHT HE WAS JOKING. But we get to the church and he had the lyrics printed up and then they did it. At a baptism. It was ridiculous. 

Sunday August 20
We went to church and then came home and made lunch. Did some fun missionary stuff. Got bunged. Highlight of the day: SORA WRIGHT ASKED ME THE DUMBEST QUESTION OF MY LIFE. We were talking about Harry Potter and she just goes: "So did Voldemort die of old age or what?" I DIED. And called our elders just because I needed to express my disgust. All in good spirits of course. Elder Brownell was just as outraged as I was. Then we spent about an hour over dinner learning about the life of Voldemort.
