So I am emailing from Eastvale again. We live in a nice place.
I am excited, but also a little stressed out. I just have to keep smiling and reminding myself everything will turn out. We had to pick Elder Heaton up from Morgan and Tracy's new house in Eastvale where we met one of the investigators Elder Heaton and Huggie got last transfer. Her name is Winter. She is a fashion designer from Taiwan. As we where leaving I asked if there was anything we could do for them. She asked us to wash her dishes... I said no because there wasn't a guy at her house, but she told us her boyfriend was there, but sleeping. So we went and washed her dishes really quick and then left. I felt weird about it though. So I am going to be super careful. It seems like Elder Heaton has built a really good relationship with Winter and Tracy and Morgan. They are sad to see him go.

We are back in car. I hope I still remember how to drive after 1 year. Elder Yeung drove most of them time here. It still smells like cow here. I will probably get to see Sister Sterner tomorrow! That will be fun. Elder Merriman is good. He works really hard at Chinese. He reminds me a lot of Austin Kirk. He is super willing to help and do everything.
Saying goodbye to everyone yesterday was really hard. Louis is doing really well! He is super ready to be baptized! He just needs to come to church.
Francis talked to his parents about us and they freaked out. They already have government jobs lined up for him and his dad if afraid of getting inspected at work. The Communist party is evil. I really hope it dies out. It is so sad. I can't even believe how bad it is over there. It gives me second thoughts about going to China. Anyways he can still come to church and learn with us. but baptism is up in the air right now.
Dong fang is doing well, and so is Emma. They are awesome we gave them a picture of the temple and wrote notes to them on the back. We committed them to having a goal of going to the temple to be sealed they accepted, and said they'd pray that we come back. :)
Other stuff...
I went on exchanges with my district. I went with this new missionary who was nice.
I went around speaking with a stake high council man yesterday asking the stake for Chinese referrals. It was fun. The high council guy (used to be stake pres.) was awesome, he is also a retired CPA. I guess it is a sign. I am definitely going to look into accounting to see if I like it.
Numbers wise it was a great week, we got 9 member presents and 10 other lessons! The Zone Leaders are really pushing us to get standard, I tried my best.
Well keep me in your prayers this week. I need a lot of help!
