Konnichiwa!
Lacee entered the MTC on Wednesday and we got our first email on Saturday...her MTC P-day! (Which means I will be trying to update her blog sometime after that each week... :) ) She says that she started her classes the very first day with her "sensei" speaking only Nihongo to them. It was a little overwhelming for her but she LOVES the MTC. Here are a couple of excerpts from her first email:
I absolutely love my district. Seriously they're the best! We have 14 people. 8 chorotachi and 6 shimaitachi. (8 Elders, 6 Sisters). We're all going to Fukuoka. We're pretty tight already. We all eat together and stuff. We only have 4 shimaitachi in a room which is super nice. In my room, it's me, Wells Shimai, Nagamine Shimai, and Kucher Shimai. I love them so much!
I have already learned so much! We taught our first kyudosha, (investigator) kino (yesterday) in Nihongo. That was insane. It didn't go very well at all. His namae is Yuki, and we teach him mata kyo (again today). Hopefully it will be better. I love language class though! It can be kind of frustrating to have to struggle so much to even understand what people are saying to you, but I love my sensei. He's so good. Very patient and helpful. It's humbling to have to rely so much on the Lord to learn things.
Just know that I'm doing subarashii! I'm learning lots, and I love it here! The days are long, but so good. The mitama (spirit) is so strong here. Love you lots!!
