Week 5- May 29, 2012

Hey everyone,

 This week went good. Not much different has happened since last week so I don’t know what to say?

A kid in my district tore his ACL a while ago so he had to stay here while the rest of the elders, who he came in the same time he did, left for Taiwan. He has been here 15 weeks now and goes in twice a week for physical therapy. He has to have a companion go with him, so I went with him on Wednesday. He does rehab for around 3 hrs at the physical therapy center which is like 10 minutes away. They have a gym there, so I got to shoot around and do some studying while he did rehab. I talked to Noah Hartsock from the BYU basketball team, who was there doing rehab on his ankle he had surgery on.

Chinese has been going well. It’s still really tough, but I’ve been learning a ton.

Sunday, we listened to a great talk from Elder Bednar called "Recognizing the Spirit". It was a film of a speech he gave at the MTC a while ago. It was about how to recognize the Spirit and he gave us three great stories relating to it. One was about when he was a missionary in Germany, another about him as a stake president, and another about him preparing a talk for General Conference.

Not much else going on that was different from last week. For gym, I still do my workouts and basketball drills. I almost got a windmill dunk down so that was cool.

Ping'an! (which means peace)
