Straight Chillin' in the MTC


Buna Ziua!!

I FINALLY MADE IT! Just finished the first few days at the Provo MTC!  I already finished 2 weeks at Home MTC, but I figured that it wouldn't be too interesting of emails. Here's a recap though:
Home MTC was actually much better than expected. I felt the spirit so strong, even just over zoom. My district and companion were so awesome and everyone always gave good comments. It was also a blessing to be able to spend more time with my family before I left. 
Ok so now to the good stuff...
Wednesday:There was crazy snow so we almost couldn't make it to the MTC, but luckily things cleared up later in the day. Then I had to say goodbye to my family which was so so sad, but luckily I quickly was able to meet up with some of my district. This helped take my mind off of things for sure. We got to meet our teachers and our district came throughout the day because of the snow. We had a devotional with the MTC presidency, and we went to bed. 
Thursday:
Thursday was a little rough for us Romanian sisters. We decided to go the earliest gym slot, but we were 20 minutes late😬.  We then had to do an orientation that took up all our gym time. We tried to get ready fast for our language tutoring, but again we were late. We also picked up my comp Sora Post, and that was soo awesome!! We had lunch and class, and then dinner. After dinner us sisters went back to our dorm before our meeting with branch presidency. We were freshening up, talking, and helping Sora Post unpack. All of sudden we look at our phones and we were already 3 minutes late to our meeting!! Ugh. Luckily we made it in a few minutes, but it definitely was not our brightest moment. I also had to play the piano for the meeting, and it went better than I thought, but... let's just say it was mediocre at best.  
Today we went to the temple and it was amazing!! And we were actually on time😉
Also in reference to the subject of this email. I can not stop saying "straight chillin" or some for reason. I even accidently told our branch president last night that I was "just chillin". ughh. And now I'm getting all the sisters to say it too haha👿
Spiritual Thought:
D&C 11:13
Verily, verily, I say unto you, I will impart unto you of my Spirit, which shall enlighten your mind, which shall fill your soul with joy.
I definitely have felt the spirit this week. Our language classes are definitely hard, but I feel the Lord's help enlightening me, and helping me learn. I also have been able to feel so much joy, even as I miss family and friends. I am so grateful for the Holy Ghost and his gifts.
