Week 18

So the beginning of this week I started of with one companion and at the end I am here with a different comp!! This week my old comp wanted to say goodbye to everyone so we had been giving everyone visits in our ward and on Tuesday we stopped by this old lady in our ward that is like our grandma, she is an awesome member! She made us soooooo much food then at the end of our lunch she wanted to make us this hot chocolate because it was freezing out and she had gotten almost all the way done when all of the sudden she picked up the pot and it slipped, and all of this boiling hot water shot everywhere! It showered my head and back of my neck but it was all over her face and her arm! I turned around to hear her scream and panic! I told her to go and run her arm under cold water so she did. There was water everywhere, so we cleaned it all up. I was totally fine, my shirt was stained but it was not really that big of a problem. She even dropped her glasses and the lens popped out, but we fixed it without her knowing! hahaha! Well that was just a little crazy! She wasn't burned that bad and she was just grateful we were there! 

Then the next day I got a new comp from Torrance, CA which is like 40 minutes away from Huntington Beach and he totally knew everything I was talking about! He even went to the same Mormon Formal "Mormal" as me, like two years ago and I had no idea! haha! Well then we were taking a bus to this one member's house and these guys on the bus were just like smoking and all of the windows were up so we just like rolled them down and the guys walked up to us super mad with us!!! They started telling us all this trash and were like cussing at us in a Barese dialect that neither me nor my comp could understand!! We were just like, "Dudes, we don't speak your dialect!" So they started yelling at us and wanted us to pay them money for living in Italy! They were like super drunk too, it was pretty scary because they were out of control and there were like 6 of them in the back of the bus. We were almost to our stop and the guys were like standing up just screaming at us to pay them and they even were like running their fingers in my hair saying they were going to burn it off if I didn't pay! Everyone in the bus was just staring at us, so all of a sudden I said a little prayer for help and all of the guys turn around and the bus stops, right when the bus stops we just jump out and start running, luckily the bus driver saw what was going on so as soon as we got out he started driving off... I don't think we will ever see those guys again thank goodness! 

Well I have just been so grateful for these miracles in my life and I'm grateful to be ok! This week also my new comp came and was looking through the apartment and saying how crappy it is without hot water and with like only three lights working in the whole house, so we got permission to search for a new place, thank goodness! Well have a good week Love Anz Goode

P.S. I saw another car crash and took a picture this time. Hahaha!

Saying goodbye to Anziano Seiko
