Don’t give up. Don’t you quit. You keep walking. You keep trying. There is help and happiness ahead. You keep your chin up. It will be all right in the end. Trust God and believe in good things to come. Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven; but for those who embrace the gospel of... Jesus Christ, they come. -Elder Jeffrey R. Holland

Chinese missionary meal
This morning Tyler & I took a brisk walk after Tyler took Anna & Laura to school. It was nice to reconnect with him while we walked around our cozy neighborhood. He went to work and I cleaned the house. My friend, Cherie, came over to practice some music. She is going to accompany me for my music audition on august 31st. She's such an amazing accompanist-she played Repentir so effortlessly. I went to wal-mart to buy some fish. Not just fish filets--but whole tilapia. We had the missionaries over tonight & felt like some chinese food. We made steamed tilapia, steamed whole shrimp (with the eyes, legs, etc), steamed buns, & lo mein (my first time to make friend noodles). Our missionaries arrived and it was clear that one of them wasn't into the seafood. I felt bad since that included half of the meal. He managed to fill up on noodles & steamed buns while his adventurous companion ate everything including a fish eyeball. (I know, gross) We had some watermelon for dessert, which was good. I haven't had watermelon in over 2 months. I had a small piece...What's the most ethic food you've ever eaten?

That Elder is very lucky he is state-side then. :)
I'll try almost anything, but that doesn't mean I'll make a plate of it. One bite is what I consider a try.
Your audition is coming up fast!
