So this past week hasnt really been to eventful. For one because the weather has started to make a turn for the worst. We service last week on Tuesday instead of Thursday because we flew to Busan(again) to meet our new mission president, President Barrow, and have interviews with him too.

So we did that on thursday and since then the weather has been pretty intense. At first it was just rain but yesterday we got hit by a typhoon. It was raining pretty intense and there was a ton of lightning and thunder. It was like shaking our little tiny house. Tropical storms are intense. We also went to a funeral yesterday too. Looking back I guess you could say this week hasent been the most uplifting.

But we were able to meet an american RM who was visiting the members pension that we do service at. So we went and had dinner with them last night too. For the time being the weather isnt raining. But lately the humidity has been pretty high (yesterdat it was 100%!). But my companion got an email from his mom saying that we should be expecting an "intermediate" level typhoon this wednesday. 

 found out that this is actually the fish we ate in the fish chunk soup two weeks ago, and that its highly poisonous and can kill you if you don't prepare it right

I asked if what we had yesterday was intermediate but he said that that was a pretty light one actually. The elders in the other half of the island got there house flooded from the rain and there power went out. So if thats what light means im interested to see what will happen the day after tomorrow.

So thats been my life for the past little bit and seems like this is how it will be for the next little bit. But like always im short on time today. So ill wish you all good luck this week. Have fun and ill talk to you soon. Bye!
