This week was loud. It was hot. It was colorful and it was interesting. But it was so good!
We started off the week by attending a missionary fireside with special guest, David Archuleta. He sang in English, Spanish, and Chinese. We just happened to be sitting in the very front row so when he was finished singing my companion was the first person to run up to him and grab him so that she could take a picture with him.
On Wednesday our investigator Adam took a three hour train ride just to buy us a colorful box of assorted Krispy Kreme donuts.

We also learned that a handful of our investigators dance the Salsa, Flamenco, Irish Step dance and we even have a pole dancer! (He's 47, lives with his mom, has a pole in his living room, he's a funny story) They are a hoot.
On Saturday night we were finding by the Night Market in our area and we happened to run into members from another part of Taiwan. They wanted to buy us dinner so we walked into the closest place we could get food. It was a bar owned by three french guys. We sat down, ordered our food and tried to have some small talk though a bit difficult to do over the loud (english) club music and the flashing lights. While we were eating one of the french guys came to our table with a tower of shot glasses and a bottle of alcohol. He started pouring and told us "this is from my heart". Well, we thanked him for his hospitality and told him that we don't drink alcohol but juice would suffice. To which his response was, " it's juice, it's just juice, i mean it tastes like juice, it's only 40%." Funny guy. Anyway, 10 minutes and a business exchange later (He gave me his name, number and set up another time to meet and I gave him our number and a lesson one tract) and he became a new investigator and I got posted on his bar's facebook page.
So yeah, that was just a little snippet of my week. There is never a dull moment on a mission. It is definitely not the easiest thing. It is A LOT of work but it is so much fun.
