Day 23-February 2nd, 2012

Day 23, Thursday, February 2nd, 2012
I didn't wake up puffy and dead. MY NET WORKS!! :) I just got a Text Message saying "En el mes del amor decora tus chats con divertidos dibujos!" Translated.. "In the month of love decorate your messages with funny drownings." Something like that anyways. So I need to figure out why February is the month of love… Hmm… This might take a while. 
Part 2- OOOOH!!! I get it now! 
Part 3- Well the ants were back at around 2. I had to do another massacre when I got back from meeting. My householder part went good. I didn't mess up at all. I looked at my notes just to make sure I was about to say the right thing at the right time. But I had all my lines down. I was nervous about it, but I translated a very last minute Bible Highlights comment and gave it. It went like this: "I am sure that almost everyone here can say what Isaiah 43:10-12 is about. So this is really only going to be a reminder for us. When it says in verse 10 'My servant whom I have chosen in rider that you may know and have faith in me, and that you maybe understand that I am the same One.' that's talking about each of us. Jehovah has chosen us. Out of all the people in the whole world, he has chosen us to be his Witness, his sons, and his daughters. Its a privilege and we should be doing all we can to show him that we appreciate and aren't taking for granted our privilege of being known as one of Jehovah's Witnesses''
After meeting, I got a Watchtower for this month. Brother Neal asked me to translate something for him, he was talking to Brother Nixon. So I went over and this is how the conversation went. 
Keith: "Tell him, I want to know if I can give a public talk one of these Sundays."
Me: "El quiere saber si puede dar un discurso en uno de los Domingos que esta aquí."
Nixon: "Ahh, si. Dile que si! El discurso va estar en Espanol entonces?"
Me: "He says yes. But wants to know if that means you have the talk in Spanish already."
Keith: "No. I will need a translator."
Me: "Dice que el va a necesitar alguien que puede traducir."
Nixon: "Ah ok…Si estaría bien, nunca hay tenemos una discurso haci. Pero si el ya tiene alguien que puede ayudarlo con esto entonces si estaría bien."
Me: "He says. Yeah it will be ok. they have never had a talk like that here before. But as long as you have a person who can help you with the translating it will be ok."
Keith: "Tell him yes I already have someone who can help me."
Me: "El dice que ya tiene alguien que puede ayudarlo."
Then Keith and Nixon both started laughing and looked at me. I smiled and then was like. "Oh!" Nervous laugh "Me?!" Both said yes at the same time… So, just like that on the 19th of this month I am going to be helping giving the Sunday 30 minute talk! :O As soon as this conversation stopped a huge pit hit the bottom of my stomach! Is this what the brothers feel like when they have to give their first Sunday talk? No I don't think so. Cause at least they know that someday they will be giving talks like this. But for sisters?! For me?! No one prepared me for this! Ha! Its ok. With Jehovah's help everything will be fine. I am just nervous now!! What do you guys think?! Can she do it?! Also how COOL is it, that I get the privilege of translating the talk?!?! BLESSINGS!!
When I got home I had to wash some clothes, and then I helped make dinner. Trudy was worried cause I guess I didn't eat anything today. I didn't realize that, until she told me. But I just wasn't hungry. The conversation at the hall, kind of took my hunger away but I went ahead and ate something. Then I went to my room and killed some more ants with poison. Actually Trudy made this mixture to use. Then after that, I started to do some more Bible Research.  I did 2 more sections just know. Since today is Day 23rd, and I have 47 sections done. I am one section above schedule! :) I think tomorrow will be somewhat of a busy day. I want to get at least 15 sections done, just so that I am not rushing to get all my sections down at the end of my 6 months, ya know?! I have service in the morning. And I need to have everything ready for the weekend tomorrow. Seeing as on Saturday after service I leave and I won't be back here until Sunday night. Then Monday I am gone in Rio Sereno. I would be SUCH a happy camper if I could get some REAL Pizza and Beer on Sunday while watching the Super Bowl. But I am POSITIVE thats not gonna happen. Oh well. At least I get to go hang out with my friends and watch it right?! GO GIANTS! WHOOP! I am going to TRY to get some sleep now. We will see if I can. Good night Day 23!

    Part 3 is really excellent.
    Remember how nervous you were about translating the talk for Br. Neal??? But, you relied on Jehovah and did an AWESOME job!!! You were so excited!!! :) We were super excited for you. None of us had ever had a privilege like that one! :)
    Oompa and I had Little Caesar's today. :)
    I love you so much, honey. It's 2 am and I can't sleep. But, I'm going to try again. I hope you're ok. Mamma Llama <3
