Dear Family,

Greetings from the M.T.C. yet again! Always... Anyway, things are fine here, General Conference is coming up which is exciting because that means I get Saturday off for language class! I am lame I know, but it gets to be a bit much at times. Thinking in Romanian literally gives me a headache.

I wish something had happened this week that I would be happy to write home about, but life is pretty basic here. Not much to report. Um, Elder Nash of the 70 came on Tuesday for the devotional, he did a good job, but I didn't really come out of it inspired or feeling like I had new perspective. But its okay because general conference is coming therefore I will have my uplifting moments for the week. Pres. Hansen that used to be Distric B (whatever that means) of the M.T.C.'s president spoke to us on Sunday, but I pretty much heard the whole talk over the time I have been here because he used to be the mission president in Romania back before Pres. Ashbey, so he would always show up to my distric meetings on Sundays (which is like our Sunday School) and talk with the 3 of us about how fantasic Romania is. But I guess he got called to be in the new temple something or other for the Sweden temple, Sweden is where he served his mission back in the day.

Um, oh, as other news, my companion, Sister Shawcross, got a letter from her mission pres. at temple Square and he wants her on April 16 instead of April 28. So I don't really know what they are going to do with me companion wise, I'll be pretty annoyed if they make me move into another room 2 weeks before I leave, but I guess it wouldn't be horrible to have to pack a bit ahead of time. Speaking of packing, the weight limit is 50 pounds per suitcase... lets all pray for a miracle... all the other sisters that left for Romania, their suitcases were either exactly 50 pounds or like 48.3 or something, so I am hoping I have the same thing happen to me, but I slightly doubt it considering mine weighed a ton before. Its kinda like a Miscack, Some-other biblical guy, and Abindigo who knew that God could save them from the firey furness but they just didn't know if He would, so they said either way they still wouldn't bow down to the false god. I know God could make my suitcases light, I just don't know if He would :).. Anyway, yeah.

I went to print off my pictures but they aren't done yet, so lets hope they are done by Saturday, because I heard a rumor going around that they let us write on Saturday for conference, that way I can send them home.

Anyway, I don't really have anything else to write.

Love you all tons!

Oh, PS. just for the record, it was my idea to reclaim the flag. Its not about being a person who "steals" its about restoring something to the rightful owner... you know justice and all :)
