Is this even the Philippines?

     So weird thing it only rained like 2 or 3 times this week. It was really nice to not always be soaking wet. This week we worked super hard to find some new investigators and after the whole week we had the test to see if any were super legit or not, going to church. Sadly none of them came. Even almost all of our IBDs didn't come. After a week of hard work we had 1 person come to church. It is too bad but 1 is still better than 0. I can't think of anything really exciting that happened this week though. It was mostly just going door to door and trying to teach everybody we can a lesson. One funny little thing that happened is we were walking in an alleyway and a little boy saw us. He ran inside as soon as he saw us and yelled Takbo Mormons! Which is just run its mormons. Funny kid but also then after that nobody let us in so that sucks. We actually hear that a lot from little kids though. Just yelling mormons or run that kind of fun stuff. One lady that we teach, Joann, has a son that yells mormons everytime he sees us. ON Sunday we went out with 4 members because for some reason we can never find members to teach but then we get too many at once and can't go anywhere. Anyways we were walking through monte with them and there is this handicapped kid there who loves us and he really freaked out one of the members because he tried to give them a hug. That made me laugh pretty hard. Anyways sorry not a huge email today but the week was great and went by so fast.   When I asked Chase the best parts of the week, he said, "The sisters had a whole ton of american candy, jolleyranchers and stuff, that they shared with me and that helped a bit.  Another best thing is one of our investigators said he would be baptized and we really didn't know if he would accept it or just punt us but he did so that was super great. Here's his daily schedule "wake up at 6:20 go to the bathroom. eat oatmeal at 6:35. maybe exercise if my stomach is feeling okay. personal study until 9 comp study and planning until 10 go out and work until 12 eat lunch go out and work again from 1 till it gets late and we start just getting kicked out of everywhere. usually just after 6 or 7 go back home eat dinner maybe. study the language a bit. go to bed"
