Sister Bee Sting

Sister Smith and Sister Mod. Already BFFs.

I made it out of the first week in the MTC mostly alive;) I love loveee it here! It's been so amazing. My companion said that the MTC is like Disneyland for Mormons and I AGREE, hahah! Ok so maybe not exactly like that, but its pretty close, lol.

My darlinggg companion's name is Sister Smith!! (Almost as hard to say as Modersitzki, but God is merciful to my teachers haha.) She is seriously a short blonde version of me! We have been like best friends since day one. We were already talking about how we're sad to leave the MTC on day two. (The MTC food has changed that by now, but leaving Sister Smith will still be a rough time:')) Anyways, I absolutely love her and we work so well together! 

Oooookay, now to get to the fun part of this week, haha. So I got stung by a bee on my foot the night that I was set apart, which wasn't a big deal. My foot was a little swollen but it was fine. BUT THEN I woke up on Thursday morning and it was the size of a watermelon and it was bruised all over. (And no, I know you are all thinking how dramatic I am, but ask anyone in the MTC and they'll agree with me;)) So I went to the doctor and he just stared at me for like 25 minutes and then looked up and said, "It's swollen." Hahaha! Sister Smith and I were like, "Well no kidding Doc." So I got medicine and crutches. Then it got worse, so I got a wheelchair. Then it got worse, so I ended up going to the ER. It was like the evolution of Sister Mod. I just kept getting shorter haha. I ended up being slightly allergic but the bee gave me a skin infection and that's why it was all nasty. Hahah RIP. But I do have to say, Sister Smith and I are now MTC famous. There were rumors about me everywhere and I'm pretty sure I have told the bee sting story to every missionary in here;) I would be chillin' in the lunch room and someone would yell, "Sister Bee Sting, how's it goin'?!" One time we were talking to some elders and I told them what happened and one of them was like, "Oh my gosh! Wait! You're the bee sting girl?? I heard your foot was the biggest foot anyone has EVER seen!" hahaha! He wasn't wrong. I'm tellin' ya I was the talk of the MTC. One time I even got a "YO BEE STING. WHAT UP?" We thought it was hilarious. So the medicine started working and I'm finally back to walking around now, but Sister Smith and I miss our little wheelchair. We made so many friends because of it, so there are for sure more pros than cons to that whole situation:) Plus I got to wear my sandals that look like Jesus' sandals at the MTC, so what could be more of a spiritual experience?;))

Anyways, I love my district like family, my zone is sooo amazing and the MTC is like Lone Peak pt. 2 which is kind of fun! I'm so grateful for the amazing experiences I'm having and how much I'm learning all the time!! I've literally never felt so happy in my entire life and I wouldn't rather be anywhere else than here with my name next to my Savior's, and I challenge all of you to start or continue learning about Jesus Christ and his amazing gospel because IT IS LIFE CHANGING. Thank you all for the cute letters and Dear Elders. They absolutely make my day and I'm so grateful for them!! KEEP 'EM COMIN (address below hint hint;)) I love you all so much and I hope everyone has a GR8 week:))

(Also, shout out to my little brother Tater Tot for having a bday this week because he's such a homie and I love him so much, and shout out to my dad for being my dad cuz Father's Day and he's absolutely amazing and I love him LOTS)
