FEELING BREEZY - 16 October 2023

Yo here we are back at it again! I've transferred to my new area down in Virginia Beach and even though it's still Virginia and there are trees everywhere, I still get the breezy vibes of the ocean which is pretty sick! But the area is epic! We've got lots to do and I'm so excited to get back into my grind with success energy! I loved rockhill so much and there were so many pros to being up in Stafford like the wards were just so awesome, but the work is slow. So I'm excited to get working hard on a whole new level now! 

Anyways, my last week in Stafford was pretty much just a wild one. Tuesday was technically my final day of work in that area because come Wednesday, both me and my comp had to pack as we were about to take my comp down to Richmond to fly to Japan, but since our other comp left, we had to have the white Oak elders come down with us so I had a companion on thursday and Friday. So we just jammed all night driving down to Richmond, dropped off our Japanese comp and headed back up to Stafford where I hung out in white Oak for a couple days. 

Thursday was a basic day of missionary work but I was new to the area so I just followed along, we did get to go to their district council so I got to say goodbye to all those missionaries which was nice. Then Friday came and we loaded up the car for transfers. Transfers were sick, I got to see all my friends and had a blast hanging with them for a little bit until I loaded up again In a new car with a new companion and drove down to Virginia Beach. My new comps name is Elder Robison and he's a pretty sick guy, he's into trucks so me and him definitely bouta get along. Then we got home and had an appointment to go to from which the appointment fell through but because we were in the area, we were able to find this one super cool dude. We taught him about the Book Of Mormon and even gave him one to keep! It was sick! My first day in a new area and already having awesome miracles!!!

Anyways, Saturday was a long day, we had to go shopping to grab some things for me and then we had some weekly planning, then we just went out to visit a bunch of people, unfortunately it was raining all day and night and of course, now that it's fall, the sun goes down at like 7:30 so people don't want to talk at night anymore. It's so dumb like cmon people, the lord doesn't run on a clock, he's eternal! But then Sunday came along and boy was this ward super small!! We straight up didn't even open the cultural hall, I was so surprised this was a ward cause there was like 50 people max at sacrament meeting. But the ward is pretty sick, there's a couple homies I met and I'm excited to get to meet all of them as it probably won't take me long to get around to everyone lol. 

Today we got to vibe out with the district, we went to an aquarium and looked at some sick fish, got to touch some sting rays and check out some narley looking turtles. 

Anyways I'm so hyped for my new area because I've lowkey needed something to get me back to my grind energy. I was very hard working at the beginning of my mission and stayed that way for a while but after my last area when we genuinely had like nothing to do, we just didn't have work enough to keep that energy but now, now I can lock down, put my head down and work harder than ever. But I love yall! I miss yall! I enjoy my mission so flipping much but I can't wait to see yall again! Anyways, talk to yall in the next one, ayo!!!
