Hey friends and family!

Only a few more days until I fly out to Singapore and it's ridiculous how excited I'm am! It's the hardest thing to focus for the last couple days here at the MTC it's unreal. All of us in my district get off task like several times a day about Malaysia and Singapore. We got our flight plans so looking at that every night doesn't help at all. But, we're starting to pack our bags and I leave Monday so I'm absolutely stoked out of my mind!

This week was good but like I said, hard to focus a lot... I'll start off with Sunday because Sunday's are always awesome. I think this one took the cake. We had heard about Nashville Tribute Band coming to the MTC to perform for us because the choir has been practicing songs to sing with them. Anyways we walk into the devotional and there is a stage set up and we realized that is was a full on concert! So sick! It was a nice break from all the talks. So we got a private concert from Nashville Tribute Band! We sang with them as a choir and that was so much fun! They also have a country aspect to them, and I haven't heard country for weeks, I was stompin' my foot the whole time haha. So much fun.

The week went on and new guys came in and I saw some new ones also. I saw Elder Crosby Gull and Elder Devin Tuttle. Both of those guys are doing great. 

I talk to Elder Coleman Broman almost every night and Elder Grant Bakker joins in a lot too. We always talk about how crazy it is to be out here and leaving to head out now, it doesn't seem real. We all share cool experiences we had throughout the day. Love those guys and I love all the guys I see daily walking around here with name-tags on. 

Well, not a lot went on this week, but the next time I write and email, I'll be sitting somewhere in the middle of Malaysia and Singapore on the other side of the world! I'm so excited and I can't wait! Berterima kasih dan jumpa lagi!
