I survived the first day!

Well almost so far...it's still not done and it's 9:30. They say I have to write you to let you guys know I am still alive  :)  Right as I got here I was herded around to pick up my name tag and a stack of books that weighs like 50lbs. I think we have the biggest stack out of everyone. Then we went straight to language class. Our teacher spoke only in Cantonese for 3 hours, but I learned a lot and am trying to implement it every time I can. 

My Chinese name is Dung. Don't ask me what it means cause I have no idea. I don't think it means poop either. haha So I am Sister Dung Ji Muih. (Dung Dzee muy  sounds like this)
My companion and roommates are awesome! My companion's name is Sister Pearl or Bou Ji Muih. No Spanish. She is from Twin Falls, but really all over, she has moved a lot. She is 21 so not super young like our roommates/district. They are only 19. Sister Berry - Bik Ji Muih & Sister Moody - Mukh Ji Muih. So all is good.

After language we went  to orientation where the MTC presidency was able to speak to us. They are really great. After we went to dinner. Good news! My companions & district all want to eat super healthy so we can all eat together!  :)  Then we went to our rooms and unpacked for a little bit. We went to a giant mock investigator thing. idk what to call it. There were like 60 of us missionaries and one investigator and we did like 3 different lessons with 3 different investigators. Then I went with my companion to finish this questionnaire thing that she didn't have time to finish. Back to our rooms where a Cantonese sister came & talked to us. 
Now we are getting ready for bed. I am excited for tomorrow!I will write an email soon! Monday I think. 

Love you muchly!
