We did it! The language tests are going out to everyone this week. Everyone in the mission is going to hate us for this. The level 4 tests are really hard, but the tests are overall very good. It covers all the information that we could forsee as being needed. I'm sure that we'll have to change them further, but it's a good first version.
I wanted to change the actual title of the program to something awesome, so I found a cool scripture that says: "And they who are in the north countries shall come in remembrance before the Lord; and their prophets shall hear his voice, and shall no longer stay themselves; and they shall smite the rocks, and the ice shall flow down at their presence." (Doctirne and Covenants 133:26)
Unfortunately, President said we couldn't change the name to "Smite the Rocks". Oh well. I'll still refer to the tests as such from now on, because that's a sick name.
It snowed quite a bit this week, but none of it stuck. It was pretty fun one night while we were walking. We were walking directly into the wind, so the snow totally covered us in front. We got home and were totally blanketed. It was awesome, I love snow so much! I got some pictures of us once we had brushed most of it off and got inside. We look pretty awesome, to be totally humble of course.
Still no weight gain, but, eating lots of food. That's good.
I gave a segment about learning the language this week at Zone Training. It was super fun. It's pretty hilarious how many mistakes I make when I speak English now, I just say things the way I would in Russian, so it comes out really funny sometimes. It's even funnier when everyone you're talking to also speaks Russian, bercause they know exactly why you're making those mistakes, and they don't even notice it half of the time because it's now become normal for them.
Well, that's my week pretty much.
Peace out!
