Phineas and Ferb in Tagalog??

Howdy Howdy, This has been another very busy and very fast week. I think the weeks get faster and faster, and they are super fast here in the office because we always have big projects to do. I almost had a FULL REGULAR MISSIONARY DAY this week, but I still haven't. But I am more SANAY to the office now. I still can't come up with a good English for sanay- I think it is, "I am more used to the office now" but it's something like that. Sanay na ako dito. We had a few problems we had to fix this week though. Not near as many as President though. he is so incredibly busy these last few weeks. Mission splitting, 4 assistants to train, new couple missionaries to train, interviews with 107 companionships, that includes two islands. Oh and he has to have everything ready for two new mission presidents. BASTA he's busy. We had a few mid-transfer arrivals this week. Two of them where from Kiribis (sp) and then we had a new couple missionary show up. It is so fun to get to meet them and hear there arriving testimonies. One Sister (from Kiribis) had such a powerful testimony. She is the only member in her family (like Elder Datu) and her family was pretty upset when she decided to go on a mission, but here she is. Her testimony was so strong. It is amazing to see what people "sacrifice" for the truth. It really is no sacrifice at all, missions are privileges! The new couple's testimonies were pretty amazing too. This is their third mission! How great of an example is that to their grand kids. They are such hard workers, too bad they will be in the new Legaspi mission and not Naga. This Sunday we will be both picking up The Reeders and dropping off the Bliesners! I am both nervous and excited!It is scary at how much knowledge and experience will be leaving with President Bliesner, we will miss him and I am so thankful that he has been my mission president. I am also so excited to greet The Reeders here into Naga. I am excited to help them out and mostly excited to learn from them! I don't know them yet, but I love them and pray for them everyday. They will do so good here! I feel like the kaastigan (awesomeness) of my letters have dropped haha. Sorry about that. However, here's a semi-cool story. Earlier today Elder Datu got his hair cut and while I was waiting the TV was on. Now I am a missionary and I know the rules, we don't watch TV. But it is really hard not to see it and hear it in this tiny barber shop. So I am just sitting and waitin'. The show that was playing was "Fibeas and Ferb" (that spelling must be WAY OFF but paki ko) which happens to be one of the funnies cartoon now playing. At first the volume was pretty low and I couldn't really hear it, but I didn't really want to anyway. Anyway I was just minding my own business and, of course, making faces in the mirrors- really who doesn't do that at the barber shop? So anyway it was after 10 minutes that I realized the show was in TAGALOG. I didn't even notice because I understood it haha. Way cool no? I hope I don't sound boastful. My understanding skills are way better than my speaking skills. Anyway that was cool. I am still waiting to have a dream in Tagaolg! I've only had parts. But I am still young. I have 11 more months to improve. Speaking of 11 months. I don't want to go home haha. I love my mission too much. I need to make the best of these next 11 months! My prayer is I will be able to finish my mission as a trainer! If not I will be sad. I want to go to the furthest area in the mission, hopefully "open area" and train for my last two transfers. The field is much too white for staying in the office! I don't have anything else to say. I love you all and I pray for you everyday. Be a missionary. You might not have a name tag on you shirt but as they said in conference PAINT ONE IN YOUR HEART! Share the Gospel with your friends, if you aren't your friends will be mad at you... one day. Be bold and remember you are a missionary, and then be a member present in the lessons with the full time missionaries. Don't wait until tomorrow to invite, if you're going to invite, "open your mouths and it will be filled" and do it today, not tomorrow. You can do it to someone else tomorrow. "How great will be your joy" is what the scriptures say. And if you're not a member and you are reading this, just listen to the missionaries, tell your mormon friend that wants to invite you but is scared that you want to be taught. I know this Gospel is true. I am so glad I get to share it every single day! Elder Davis
