GGGHAHHAHHAHAHAAKKK ITS HAPPENING
Things are still going very well here at the MTC - I've had a lot of great experiences. I'm almost sad that I have to leave, but I'm going to Fiji so I get over it very quickly. Yesterday 8/31 was in-field orientation, so that was sort of a big 'this is happening' moment for me. It's crazy to think that in a few days I'm going to be 5,500 miles away from the US but I can't wait!
I'm going to miss the Elders and Sisters in my zone a lot though. We've had so much fun together and have grown so close. Learning Fijian and hearing about all the other island languages like Tongan, Samoan, Malay, and Kiribati has been a really cool experience for me. Seeing pictures from my teachers' missions has also been awesome, and I feel like just from that I've gained a lot of love and respect for the people and the culture. It's going to be awesome!
Yeah we started pseudo-preparing for Fiji and it's gonna be wild. The twenty missionaries in our group are all going to Fiji, but there are two elders that are visa-waiting: Elders Brown and Pomat. Elder Brown is going to Vancouver Washington if it doesn't come in the next couple days and Elder Pomat is going back to his home country of PAPUA NEW GUINEA to proselyte. Both are so awesome and I hope they make the most of the time they have outside Fiji - and I hope they can get their stuff quickly.

TakeAName is a great app Bro Day showed us to find family names USE IT PLEASE!
I don't think I really knew how to play foursquare before I came but now I'm pretty good. Also I DID beat my mile goal - I ran 6.27! HOW ABOUT THAT GRANDPA :D !!! Then I felt bad every gym time after so I just sort of stopped but whatever.
Looking forward to Fijian in the field.
I got some masking tape and it's gonna be awesome with scripture stuff.
That's all for now, but I'll try to talk to you Monday in the airport!
Love you guys!
