10 month 7 transfer

First off i want to say HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!! im so glad you and dad got married and gave us the life you gave us, i am eteranally grateful for you guys and the example you have given me!!!!

second, transfer.......... im sad to say that i am getting transferred......... and to be honest i am stressing a lot with this next transfer.... i am transferring to 일산 and becoming senior comanion, and opening the area (well the area has two sisters right now but the area is big and busy so they are having me and my new companion open up for two more sisters) and they are having me become STL...... my companion after we got the call said wow i have never heard anyone being STL and opening at the same time, so wish me luck! my new companion is Sister Hansen, she is a transfer below me. we were in the MTC together for 3 weeks! she is really nice and sweet and to be honest it will be nice living with an american again! so i am excited! but it was sad to say goodbye to all the members yesterday and to the investigators and  our recent converts! but luickly i am still in the same stake as all of them so i can see them every once in a while! transfer day is wednesday and we have the temple tomorrow so i will probably start packing tonight and finish after the temple tomorrow! 

but something cool that happened is so last sunday we had dinner with a member and she was telling us about her son who is the only member in his family, his wife and son are nonmembers. she asked us if we could pray for her sons family that they would take missionary discussions and be baptized. so we told her that we would and testified to her that god will answer her prayers. well yesterday when they announced that i was moving to 일산 after sacrament she ran up to me and told me that 일산 is where her sons family lives, so she said please go find them and teach them! she asked to take a picture with me and then she said when you find them show them this picture and they will let you in! i really hope i can answer her sweet prayers and teach her family! or at least get them more comfortable with missionaries! she is a really sweet older lady so i really hope to be able to help her!!!!! 

this past week we havent done a whole lot, i was sick for most of it and then when i got better i gave it to my companion so right now she has it..... whoops. so one day we were both feeling really sick and i was super tired since i hadnt really slept through the night for a week so we ended up calling the mission nurse and he told us to stay inside the next day and sleep. not going to lie turning off that alarm that night was the best feeling in the wolrd!!!! we both slept till 10:30 ate breakfast fell back asleep till 2 ate lunch and slept till 5 and then slept just fine that night! after that i felt so much better and havent felt sick since, besides a cough every once in a while but its not nearly as bad as it was!!! it was the best sleep i have had in 10 months!!!! 

sorry this email is lame but we didnt do a whole lot! love you so much and im glad you are doing stuff to the house, i am excited to see everything when i get home~ oh and i am exited because in 2 weeks i get to call you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

love you

eah i am freaking out a bit! i told my companion i think my mission president took some crazy pills before he made the changes hahah

its ilsan, it has a brand new ward building that is huge and super nice! it was dedicated last October or sept i think, all the missionaries went and sang at it! 
oh guess what... last night i had to eat samon..it actually wasnt as bad as i thought it would be, but it still wasnt my favorite! 
yeah its a huge area! which is why they want 4 sister there. yeah thats what my companion said that my korean will improve really fast now that i wont have a korean to rely on anymore since my companion will be the one relying on me... hahah
