This week has been SUPER SLOW but chill as far as meeting with people and going about our day. Its crazy to think once we book appointments with investigators, less actives, and even actives then we get called on short notice change. Then, that would mean that we would have to adjust plans and go out about our day. Im' so used to set schedules and planning our days worth but I rarely use my backup plan because I assume I wouldn't have to use it much. But its all in the mission life and its one area I know I still need to work on learning to adjust to schedule changes no matter what.

The trainvis' here suck because it is SUPER SLOW everyone here is crying doamne' doamne' hoping that it will come soon. I don't know if its just the month of August or that not enough people work on the tranvis'. So we just sit there talk with people at the train stations and start a conversation. But me sitting and talking too much could only go so far to a point where we just decided to walk home and even just take a taxi. In my head Im thinking that buying this tranvi pass was waste of money. But then again I was saved last because we got patrolled by patrollers here in Arad but unfortunately my comp got caught it was funny at first it sucked for him. It was so unexpected and quick when they hopped on the tranvi like normal people and first person they check was my comp. My comp had a ticket but forgot to punch it on the tranvi so we had to get off the next station and he had to pay the fine. Overall, its cool because we would of never meet so many people from tranvi and for them to recognize or let alone have them ask questions about us and our purpose here as missionaries here in Romania/Moldova.
Surprising news we found out that the Smiths's the Senior couple here in Arad are being transferred to Bacau. Kind of sucks hearing the news but I am excited for the Smiths and the new area that they will be serving in. I know they are super excited to be going to a new city too. Cristina gave her farewell talk before she heads out to France and the Smiths' gave their final remarks and testimonies it was really good and surprising news for our branch. The Soelbergs are coming to Arad by the end of this transfer and should be good for the branch. Transfers are coming in this week so we shall see if I stay or spend another transfer here. Alrite then everybody have a good one.
