OOPS!!!

Whoops! Me again! I report tomorrow afternoon! OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODNESS!!!!

Anyhow, I made a mistake on my mission home address. I forgot the zip code and you kinda need that. So here's the address again.

Sister Jessica Meeauilikakaniokealii Halliday
Japan Tokyo Mission
4-25-12 Nishi Ochiai
Shinjuku-ku
Tokyo-to 161-0031
JAPAN

Anyhow...I'd like it to be known that my parents are horrible companions and keep trying to leave me alone =P

Anyhow, the trip up here to Provo was crazy long. We hit snow around Flagstaff and hit some black ice on the Rez....it gave us all quite a scare, but my daddy is a good driver and handled that pretty well. The roads were icy all the way to the I-15. And it was soooooooo cold! Around 7:30am it was -18 degrees out!

Since the roads were so icy we couldn't go more than about 40 MPH the whole way to the 15 so it was a looooooooong trip. My back STILL hurts.

We finished up my mission shopping and dropped by the BYU bookstore for a little bit. Then we went to the MTC to check the information desk just to make sure we knew what we're doing tomorrow. Which we don't. Or at least I don't. I just know I walked into the lobby and I was like "I shouldn't be here....this is a forbidden place....there's ELDERS here!"

Yeah...I should probably get over my fear of Elders now. I'm gonna have to be stuck in the MTC with them for a long time.

Let's see. It's snowing up here. It's been snowing pretty much since about 4:30. I am NOT looking forward to the trek to the temple on P-days.

Tonight we went to dinner with Clarissa and Jacob and a bunch of my family that I apparently knew when I was a baby? And my dad's old college roommate Robert and his family that live up here too. It was cool. We all talked pretty easy.

Clarissa is getting roundy! hee hee. It's cute. ^_^

Let's see...that's really all for Utah now. I'm so stuffed. We went to Olive Garden and I ate lots of salad and breadsticks.

There were lots of missionaries there eating their last meal. I bet every nice-ish restaurant is busy on Tuesdays in Provo. =P

Now I must head off to bed. Tomorrow I'll be in the MTC and my parents will be updating this for me. So long and see you in a year and a half!!!

Love,
Halliday Shimai
