Baptisms

We went to the temple testerday night.!! The brother who performed the baptisms did it different than usual. He'd hold you under forever!, then when he'd pull you back up, he'd throw you! I tripped all 20 times! I kept loosing my footing! Before we went in the temple, we all ate ice cream at Baskin Robins!! Lexi got "Cinnamon Roll...something"(In the words of lexi) I got Suprise MintNight, Maika got "Caramel Ribbon something, what she always gets" (Lexi again) While Chiba-kun, Shunichirou & Yuuichirou shared a smoothie to save money. Afterwards, when we were walking to the station, he stopped at McD's to get some dinner(a little late). And while we were on the train, he said "I hate when I only eat a little, but it's only because can't eat any more. I only ate 3 burgers. You know what I mean Yuuichirou?"(Yuuichirou agrees) "What! 2 is plenty!"(Says Maika) "Really?! I usually eat 8 (Says Chiba) But keep in mind that a McDonalds hamburger in Japan is 1.5 times smaller than in America.

Missionary & Youth Evening

This posting's a little late, but here's what we did at Missionary and Youth evening. There were like, 5 new Elders! The Adachi Elders gave a lesson on testimonies, the sisters taught everyone the activity called Chain Murder. Sounds creepy, but it's way funny! (Elder Judd!!!!) 3 people leave the room. While they're absent, the rest of the group decide 1. The scene of the crime(where it happened) 2. The occupation of the murderer 3. The weapon used. Some one is chosen to act these out(ex. Mr. Noah) Then, No. 1 returns to the room. Mr. Noah must act these 3 things out to No. 1 without using words. If No.1 thinks he understands what is being acted out to him, he touches his nose. Once he thinks he knows them all, No. 2 comes in, and he must once again act it out to her without words. She does the same to No. 3. Then No. 3 announces what he thinks the 3 things are. Then they all see if anything went wrong, and if so, where. And you just keep playing more rounds. Ours ended up very strange.(our Elders are weird!) It's fun! Then, we ate snacks and departed.

Telegram

It a super fun game! Each person receives a piece of paper. at the top you write a sentence! Don't show it to othwer players! Pass your paper to the person next to you(1). Receive the the person's paper from the other side of you(2). draw a picture explaining the sentance. Fold down the sentance so you can only see the picture. give it to (1). Receive another paper from (2). Write a sentance on it. Keep this going until there's no space left. There kinda has to be at least 4 people, so you loose track of who's is who's. Remember the weirder the better! Here's some of our funniest ones: "A quilt is a wonderful kind of thing, so lift up your voice and sing! (picture) Granny sings with joy becausr she drew scribbles on the checkers board. (picture) Elderly woman hobbles while humming a tune because of some messy patchwork. (picture) Feeble grandma mistakes a stained glass window for sheet music so she atarts to sing. (picture) Wobbly Grandma turns a stained glas window into sheet music & performs a solo." "'What do we live for, but to make sport for our neighbors, and laugh at them in our turn'(Pride and Prejudice) (picture) Two couples, each living in destitute circumstances, laugh at each other's misfortune. (picture) G'ma & G'pa angrily scowl at young lively children while saying hahaha (picture) Grumpy old people laugh at spritely children's antics. (picture) Old gramie & Grampie extend arms out to buch-toothed infant with 1 curl on top." "'It is a truth universally aknowledged, that a single man in possesion of a good fortune, must be in wanr of a wife'(Pride & Prejudice). (picture) A young man daydreams of a bride. (picture) Bob wants to go to Vietnam because the woman have no hands and have chicken feet. (picture) A young man sails a paper sail boat across a pond, which is discovered by a young woman, promting her knee to break and she grows chicken feet." Here's some funny quotes from some because we couldn't have words in the pictures: "Clown man sweats all the facial features off his face so a sign swears at him" "raggedy Anne does her fraction division math without numbers" "Super Vampire cat, clad only in a shirt, spews profanity as he flies thru the night sky" Lovely huh?

Girls week

My dad's off to the phillipines, and we're having a girl's week complete with chick-flicks. Fun fun! Especially since my dad thinks almost evrey movie is a chick-flick. His theory: Does have yearning?(Yes) does it have car chases? (No) okay, it's a chick-flick. This afternoon we watched The Glenn Miller Story, and I liked it very much. I really like the music. i love stuff from that era.

Interesting experience...

My mom and I had an interesting experience yesterday. We went to Disney Sea, and seeing as we don't want to pay the 2,000yen fee, we parked at a near by park for free. There just so happened to be a guard there waiting for these kinds of things, so he kept saying "Wait!". But when we'd turn around, he wouldn't do anything, and look the other way and stuff, so we trudged on, walking faster eventualy turning into a run, when we hear this piercing whistle blowing. We turn around, and would believe it? He was blowing it at us! Turning back to him, he just keeps saying "No. Car." and the like. We'll ask him what he wants, but he just keeps repeating it over and over again. Finally he says "You can't park here. You were going to go to Disney Sea huh?" We say "How do you know? You have no proof. " "But you were going to huh?" "But why were you yelling at us back there?" " No I wasn't" Guy, how dumb do you think we are? So, we walk off in the direction of the park, and take a long-cut through the park, to Disney Sea. We get in line for the new ride, which opened on sep. 4th to celebrate Disney Sea's anneversary(and Gloria's birthday). After we waited in line for about 15minutes of the 70minute wait, my mom starts getting really worried that the guard will give us a ticket or something. so we return to our car, trying to avoid the guard, but when we look over there, he's trying to avoid us! in a little boy type way, hiding bedhind pillars and the like, but still trying to look at us, allowing us to see him.
