May 8, '97

1) My patient teachers
2) My companion's honesty and ideas
3) the kindness of the missionaries here
4) the words of wisdom of priesthood holders
5) ice cream sundae!

Run - 20 min - 100 situps, 20 push ups

The first full day at the MTC - SURVIVED!! Funny -- I looked at my clock around 1:20pm and realized that only 24 hours had passed since I had entered! Yet, so much has occurred -- I've met so many people and learned so many things.

What's most memorable is the gift of tongues that I'm experiencing! Of course, I'm still at less-than-first year level, but my vocabulary is coming back, my understanding is increasing...

I also got some mail! From my awesome Mom and my friend Lindalee. I need to not be so dependent on mail, though. I need to realize that yes, life will go on without me, and I don't need to be filled in on it all! I didn't receive Elder Stone's letter. I'm hoping I didn't offend him by responding so hesitantly to his letter that practically proclaimed his love! We'll see, I guess -- I hope soon!

Love, Sister Berry

P.S. de ja vu is pretty consistent. COOL!
