So I'm in Korea!!!
So it's been two weeks, the last week of the MTC was great!
We got our non-member TRC person to commit to baptism, so that was great. And
now that I'm out here in korea, I really miss the all you can eat food at the
MTC, cause it's just not the same here haha. So the MTC was great! The flight
here was very long. As we were pulling into Busan, the plane braked rather
abruptly, and one of my book of mormons flew off my chair and traveled a few
isles up the plane. When we were allowed to get up, I saw someone pick it up,
and I never saw it again! So I was okay with that! haha
Korea has been great though! My companion is Elder Gailey
from Midway, Utah. He has been super helpful getting me situated here. The
members here are wonderful, my current area is 금정 (km jeong? - Geumjeong) and it has probably
the nicest lds church is korea, so that's great. There are a lot of members,
and they are all awesome! I can't understand like anyone, so that's something
I'm trying to work on. Busan is known for having like an accent compared to the
rest of Korea, so I gotta try and adjust to it.
Interesting Fact story time thing: So one of the first
interesting things I learned when I got to korea was Garbage. So apparently
they are very organized with their trash. You can only through paper
away together, plastics together, metals, glass, and then stuff that can just be burned (and for that stuff you have to buy a special bag to put the stuff away in). So it is very confusing, but the place we are staying at, the last elders left a huge pile of garbage there, like a huge pile. So we spent 4 hours just trying to organize and get rid of some of it. Then the next day a typhoon hit, so we had to stay inside that day too. So I've had to stay inside a lot of my time here, but it's all good! because God has a plan, and there are no such things as coincidences, so everything is happening how it is supposed to!

It's so great! I love the work! I'm adjusting to some of the food, the language, but everything else is great! We can't view emails throughout the week, and don't have very long on P-Days to email back, so if i don't get back to some of you each week, i apologize in advance, haha.
