Princess Disease [week 31]

Fun fact the word for brat in Korean literally translates to "princess disease."

Well I had a cultural experience with my fellow missionaries. It was swell. We ran around in robes called hanbok and looked at Buddhist statues at the Hwaseong fortress in Suwon. I liked it. It was cool. We rented these traditional costumes from a costume shop and most of the elders chose the peasant hanbok, but I chose the  one that a king would wear.  I guess I am a brat (see what I did there?).

I also went on an exchange with a cool guy named 이현호 Lee Hyun Ho. Pretty nifty huh?  It was a grand swell week. 











Stay in school don't do drugs. Also the advice that every old senior missionary gave at the cultural event for having good families is: 1- to not have a TV, and 2- to be united with your spouse. Those oldies are so full of wisdom. Literally three for three said basically the same thing when asked: "what is the key to a successful family?" Pay attention to the media that comes into your home. Books, music, TV, video games, etc. So um, yeah let's do that. 
Alright love you guys. Makes some choices that will unite your family. Over and out. Love ya bye. 

SCRIPTURES!!!
Read D&C 111:11 I'm memorizing it lets see how close I am. "Therefore, be ye as wise as serpents and yet without sin, and I shall pour out blessings for thy good Faster than ye are able to receive them." 

Check it and report back. Pronto stat asap
PICTURES!!!

Some wild Korean stuff and me. 





There's a happy lookin dragon. He must've just finished off some human beans ahahaha hahaha hah... get it? BEANS!?! There is no graffiti in Korea. It's crazy. The cities are so clean and safe. 

There's a dog in a stroller. I see this more than I see kids in strollers.

Life is Good Facebook Challenge [week 19ish]

I love these guys! Elder Jack Livingston is a good guy! So is Elder Jonah Del Priore and Elder  Joe Griswold. All great guys, and it was cool to watch them grow as a companionship. They weren't really best buds towards the beginning of MTC and by the end they were the closest of friends. I'm grateful I got to know these guys before they went to the Korea Seoul mission. I wasn't challenged to the life is good challenge, so I challenge myself today! The future posts are probably going to be shorter than this one though so I can write them in English and Korean. 

Feb 4th, Day 1: I'm thankful for my MTC 동기 (peers)


February 7th: Day 2 of Life is Good. I am super thankful for my siblings! I challenge Brigham Renfroe to participate in the 10 day challenge.
저는 여동생과 남동생이 너무 감사합니다.

February 8th: Day 3 of the life is good challenge. I am thankful for the people I am able to teach, here in Korea. I love them all so much. I won't challenge or post pictures of them for their privacy, but know that I love them!
제 가르침 진친구들을 사랑합니다!
February 9th: Day 4: life is good challenge. I am thankful for delicious Korean food. Today I challenge Adam Stucki to the life is good challenge. I love this guy! He was my roommate and he is on a mission right now. What a cool guy!
저는 한국 음식을 좋아하고 감사합니다!

February 11th: Day 6/10 of the life is good challenge in which I say something I'm thankful for, and challenge someone else to do the same thing 10 days jn a row.
Today I would like to say thank-you for the 몰몬 경. (Book of Mormon) and all the other great resources the gospel library has to offer. I look forward to personal study more than anything other than meeting with friends to teach. Good stuff. Today I invite 이승규 장로님 (a top notch missionary) to participate in the life is good challenge if he so desires.
저는 몰몬경을 사랑합니다!
