Week 49 & 50

Happy (late) New Year!! 🎉🎊💐

So I had finished writing this email, but the whole thing deleted itself, so my 2021 is not off to a great start 😒 But we did have transfers right between Christmas and New Year's, and here whatcha gotta know... 

Things that didn't change:

- I'm still a Zone Leader 💪😤

Things that changed:

- For the first time since June, I'm finally not in a trio........ 😲! I am now with the stud himself, Elder Bowles! He's from Oregon and was serving in Argentina for 6 months before getting reassigned to this mission cause of COVID

- I also moved out of the Copper Hills 5th ward and am now covering the Rancho Vista ward

- I moved to a different, great and spacious basement that actually has carpet, so I'm bouta have some nice floor naps 😪

- I am now in the 💪West Valley Zone👌🏼 

I had an absolute blast freezing my butt off on Ensign Peak recording the music video for my arrangement of "I Know That My Redeemer Lives", and I'm glad it turned out super well! Check it out on my Facebook page if you haven't already. I Know That My Redeemer Lives - Virtual Choir

Also, my New Year's Eve was... the best. We had planned some district activities with other missionaries, buuuuut we were informed last minute that no missionaries were allowed to be outside of their apartments after 6pm. So with all plans canceled, we spent the night watching The Prince of Egypt and The Other Side of Heaven while enjoying some apple cider... alone. 

And I'm excited to see how this transfer turns out as well. It should be great! 

(Weeks consisting of 12/29/20 - 1/4/21 and 1/5/21 - 1/11/21)

6) I think one of the weirdest introductions into a new zone is spending a p-day having a Bey Blade tournament with my district, and I haven't laughed so hard of people taking kids' toys so seriously
