Today was great. I was able to write letters, and do laundry. We got to go to the Temple. At dinner, I found out that an Elder in our district went home, and that made me really sad. He seriously was my favorite. I pray that he will be okay. Tonight's devotional was really good. Elder Jeffrey R. Holland and his wife came and spoke to us. I love his passion for missionary work and it motivates me more every time to be better.

Companionships are really inspired. I really love Sister Allan and am so grateful she's my companion. Today was an excellent day. I got some letters from people, which is always exciting. I got to be an investigator at the teaching extravaganza, which gave me an interesting perspective to not be the teacher for once. I'm anxious to get to NJ, but the Lord is on my side, so why should I fear? Many new missionaries arrived at the MTC today, and it was difficult to see. The first day is hard for everyone. It's hard to believe that just a week ago, I was that new completely lost missionary. I don't feel homesick. I know my family is being protected and doing well. I'm glad to hear that Grandma is improving.
