Sorry I'm getting this letter to you a little later than usual, this afternoon I'm going to play cricket at a members house! I'm so excited, it's going to be the "bestest" (that's what you say here in Trinidad - man my English is going down the pipe). So yes I am going to be transfered. Tomorrow night I'm staying with the Zone Leaders and they're taking me to the mission office where I will be doing creative tasks for the mission. I went on a mission to get away from design and it some how comes and finds me. I'll be doing things like re-designing the monthly newsletter, and I want to make a website, if there isn't already one. Sister Robison I hear requested me to go to the office because I'm so mac savvy and she has trouble with hers sometimes. I have mixed emotions about this transfer. Everyone in the branch doesn't want me to go, they said I have been one of the best missionaries to come through the branch. Everyone has caught the vision of the 15 baptisms by the end of the year, we are holding a service between the sessions of conferenceon the 6th, the Ali's and a woman named Debbie will be baptized (she is the sister of another sister I baptized when I first got here). I'm going to beg the President to let me come down to south Trinidad to go to the baptism, I figure I will be able to because it's Conference the whole day.
Guess what! Raj and Ann Narie, are giving me a hammock! I'm so excited! When I left, Sherry Ann Kahn (baptized her when I first got to the area), her kids grabbed onto my legs so I couldn't walk, like what I used to do to dad so he couldn't go to work. And then they were calling out my name and waving till I walked out of sight. It's been so hard to say goodbye to all of these people - actually it's harder to leave here than it was home, cause I know I will see you again after my mission.
This morning elder Williamson and I woke up to this HUGE beetle bug thing from spirit prison. It was easily 10-12 inches big (including legs, the body was around 5 inches) it was so gross - it was black and red and the design on the shell was pretty cool. Anyway I got an old bed sheet and put it over me and cut a hole in it so I could spray the bug spray at it without it eating me. I also got some sweet videofootage from within the "tank". I doused it with this aerosol bug spray and usually it kills bugs on contact, but it took like 5 sec of constant spray to knock it off the wall. It made the most horrible noise - A high pitch shrieking/clicking sound which was actually pretty scary. I used about half the can of bug spray on it and it still took about 5 minutes to die. I'm pretty sure it was an alien and not a bug. 1836!
