October 15th, 2017 Transfers!

Guess what???
I am being transferred to SIEM REAP!! AHHH I am seriously so excited!! I am so sad that I am being transferred from Tuek Thlaa and Tuel Kork because I am missing two baptisms (including Napai's) this weekend but I am so pumped to be going to the coolest place in the country! For those of you who don't know, Siem Reap is the province that has Angkor Wot, the country's largest tourist attraction. Look up pictures of it. It's beautiful. My new companion is Sister Snooks, and I am so excited! She was the trainer of my MTC companion so we are all just switching companions.
This week was pretty normal but as I am typing this email I am wearing more make up than I have ever worn in my whole life with two sets of fake eyelashes and crazy hair. I look like I just came out of a movie from the 90's. We did something called Srei Sa'aats (Pretty Girls) today and it is when people doll you up and you take a ton of photos in traditional Khmer robes and it is so fun!! Sister Christensen, the mission President's wife, even came with us!!!
I hope everyone has a great week, and the next time I email I will be in Siem Reap! The Church is true!! I love being a missionary!!
