Maybe you all got a little taste of what Japan is like with
the flood this week ;) I hope you all survived and your houses didn't float
away! You will have to keep me updated with the roads, if they ever get up and
running again! I hope the kids had fun sleeping at their schools, thats always
an adventure! haha
This week was good! It was technically "transfer
week" but since my whole district stayed the same, it still just feels
like last transfer! I like it!
Remember the man we met on the street last week and were
going to teach that night? Well we taught him and it went AMAZING! He had tons
of great questions about where we go after this life, and why there are so many
churches. Luckily, through our message we can answer those question
s :) BUT he
is busy, and can't meet until next week, but we are so excited!
I am looking through my "miracles" of the week in
my planner to see what to tell you...most of them are "we killed the
cockroach in our house" or "Hirata Shimai killed a monster spider in
our house" or " I ate chocolate banana ice cream" or "I
tried to kill a spider in the church bathroom, but I chickened out, the spider
faked dead and i just brushed it into the trash can and ran away" or
"our English students gave us cake" or "we got delicious
Japanese seedless grapes from an investigator" hmm....seems like spiders
and food seem to be my miracles of the week...

But I did learn a very valuable lesson this week that I am
sure most girls have learned while living with other girls. DON'T LET YOUR
ROOMMATE CUT YOUR HAIR!!!! I have needed to have a hair cut for quiet some time
now, but with transfers, and having to go on a p-day I just didn't want to
spend time. Finally after our English class I was fed up and Hawkins Shiami has
wanted to cut my hair for forever (we have been living together for 5 months
now) She cut her past companions hair, and has 5 sisters, so I figured it was
safe, right? WRONG! She cut it straight in the back...well diagonal. When we
brought the hair up to the font not only was one side about 3 inches longer
than the other, but the hair from the front of the head was about 3 inches
longer than the hair from the back of the head, so her companion, Williams
Shimai, fixed it so it was a little bit better. But let's just say I have
an appointment today with a ward member who will cut my hair for free at the
church. Don't worry, she is a hairdresser. I have been walking around Kurume
with uneven hair for like 5 days, but I think since I am an American everyone
still thinks it's cool. Maybe I will start a trend? I am just hoping my hair
will be normal by the time I go home! hahah! We have fun in the Kurume
apartment, thats for sure!
Love you all! Stay safe and have fun! GO MUD BOGGING!
Ai shite imasu yo!
