What a whirlwind of
a week, I haven't been this tired since the first weeks of my mission. We were
so busy that I lived on nothing but bread products, went without sleep for the
first few nights, and didn't get to wash my hair with conditioner until the weekend.
Yet we were still teaching and training like a pro.
Last Monday I was
ready to spend the rest of my mission in Santo Antao, and I was perfectly happy
with that. I miss Santo Antao. But the call came that I was being transferred
and so I said goodbye, bought a passage to Sao Vicente, and after arriving,
packed a bad for leadership council in Praia the next morning.

Tuesday morning we
were up at 4:30 AM to hit the airport for the leadership council in Praia. That
whole event is just kind of a blur of mission statistics and such because I was
so new and tired, but it was fun to see all the missionaries in Praia again! We
didn't get to visit Palmarejo though because right after council we were back
on a plane to Sao Vicente.
Thursday we had Zone
Meeting and I gave my first training with Sister Cerquiera. It went well (I
think) but next month I'm going to be more prepared for council and therefore
more prepared for Zone Meeting. Haha. Helloooooooooo new calling!
Saturday and Sunday
we were in Cidade again for Conference. And Sao Vicente is chique so we got to
watch it in English. I loved Elder Kearon's talk on the refugee efforts and
President Holland's talk as always (and we did indeed get ice cream afterwards).

Well... that is my
blessed rushed update for the week, I spent a lot of time trying to load
pictures for you all, because I know that's the best part. Haha. Basically, I
miss the people I was with in Santo Antao, but Sao Vicente is the place to be,
and we're about to get work done!
Love to all,
Sister Hanzel
