"SISTER MOON WE HAVE TO GET OUT NOW!" -Sister Gehring

Hello hello,

So, to explain the subject of this email...last night we got back from class and we were all getting ready for bed. I was in the middle of my shower when the fire alarm started to go off. Even after practicing fire drills a million times at school, I started panicking because I had never practiced what to do if I was in the shower! I almost started to run out in my towel, when I decided I should probably have clothes on if I was going outside. I started to get dressed when I heard Sister Gehring shouting, "SISTER MOON, SISTER MOON! ARE YOU IN HERE?" I told her I was getting dressed as fast as I could and she answered, "SISTER MOON WE HAVE TO GET OUT NOW THERE IS A FIRE!" We ran so fast out of the building and I still had conditioner in my hair. After about an hour we were able to go back inside. We were inside for about 30 minutes when it started going off again. Luckily, it only went off for a few seconds and we were told that one of the alarms was just filled up with dust and the steam from the showers somehow triggered them but they were being fixed. It was quite a scare in the moment, but we are all safe and happy that it was just an accident.

"Welcome to the MTC" -literally everyone

HELLO,

The amount of times that I heard that heading was unreal. Me and my companion tried to act like we knew what we were doing so we didn't look so fresh but apparently you can just tell:) Being at the MTC is like a whirlwind of emotions and so unreal. I always feel like I am just in a dream and life isn't going on around me. As soon as you get here everyone just has so much love for you and just wants to help in any way possible, it's amazing how our church does that. We also taught a lesson our very first day here which was way scary but it is amazing to look back just a week and see how much everyone has grown, including myself.
