Happy Birthday to Clark

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLARK!!!!!!!!!!
Good grief I cannot believe that you are already 17! What am I going to do with you?? Well I hope that today is a good day for you and that you party and have a ton of fun without me.
Well classes are over, I keep dreaming in Tagalog, and my bags are almost packed, I guess it is time to leave for the field. We had our departure devotional yesterday, good advice, but I still cannot believe that we are leaving so soon. By the end of today I will be a solo sister. Sad day. The end of classes was interesting, what seemed so hard at the beginning is now easy and what we just learned seems rushed, when am I supposed to use mang verb?? and what was that phrase?? But I know that in the field it is going to be super hard whether I know it or not.
Thank you all for your letters and packages last week, everyone loved it, especially me. Thank you all for all of your support throughout the entire MTC stay I have really been one of the most blessed missionaries. I am so grateful for all of the support that I was able to feel from all of you, it made getting up each morning a little easier. Well by this time next week I will be somewhere in Luzon with a companion who I do not know. This is going to be the experience of a life time and I honestly and still not sure of what I signed myself up for. We looked at pictures of Quezon on Saturday with Bro. Molina and he answered questions for us, ya no toilet paper...Quezon City is called the arm pit of the Philippines, the city is packed with people, so so so so so many people. But the outskirts are rice patties and ocean, huge fields and quiet homes. It is going to be interesting to see where I end up.
This past week has been the same as usual. The TA went well we were able to teach about the plan of salvation and get the main point across which is an accomplishment.
Oh I got to host Liz Kuhn last Wednesday, the highlight of my week. It was awesome, it is so much fun to finally have a really good friend at the MTC, I love being able to see her!!!
Well that is about it. Sorry it is short, but there is really not much new, just packing and waiting and studying and still praying always praying for help. There is absolutely no possible way to do this work successfully without the spirit. I know this church is true, I know that we have a prophet who leads and guides and I know that as long as we listen to and follow him we will be lead to peace and happiness. Stay strong everyone. I love you all.
Mahal ko kayo.
Ingat po,
