Namaste

Namaste!

On the trains they have ladies only carriages and all the signs for it are pink and the seats are all pink and it's super cute! On the normal carriages, there are usually seats reserved for people with disabilities and stuff but there are seats reserved on the trains for women!

The last P-day we bought some chicken and the place smells so bad, I stood as far away as possible like all the way around the corner. It smells so bad because they have live chickens there and then they kill them, chop them up and you buy that!
I also saw a nice park which had grass! first time I've seen and walked on grass since being here!
Went to Joseph's home for FHE, they're members and they found out I LOVE pappadums so they made some for me! First time I've had them since being here and it made me so happy!

I taught my first missionary handbook thought in District Council, it was on studying and that was fun. Munirka and Vasant Vihar districts went out for lunch together after at Ambience mall, my favourite place to go! 

I had my first exchange this week with the STL Sister Ramu. It's kinda like a sleepover haha I went to her area and to all her appointments and stayed the night because it's for 24hrs. It was fun, she'd always find flowers to put in my hair and she gave me chocolate! I crave chocolate, ice cream and everything sweet here haha I must always need energy for all the walking we have to do here so instead of gaining weight on my mission I'm losing it haha.

Okay so! They have these things called He-she's and they're a guy dressed up as a girl and they walk around to all the cars when they're stopped in traffic asking for money. So I was talking to Sister Ramu facing the other way and it scared me so much because suddenly I heard this loud clapping right next to me and I turn around and there's like a guy standing there and I'm like wow. We just told him we didn't have any money and he walked off but apparently, you can get some really mean and annoying ones who don't leave you alone and then they curse you. I hope I don't ever get cursed!

We had district English finding and we were discussing who would hold up the banner and who'd hand out fliers and they were all like you aren't holding the banner you're our secret weapon, you're white and a sister haha. Apparently, I'm really fast in handing out all my fliers and I always turn around saying I'm out and they just roll their eyes haha. In the end, Elder Riess (AP)and I played a game where he'd try and hand out a flier and if they rejected him I'd try and give my flier to them and they'd always accept it from me and be really interested in it haha. 

I find it so funny how here they don't eat beef right because cows are sacred and you can get fined for hurting them so at Burger King and Maccas and stuff the whole menu is just chicken but just with it cooked different ways and with different flavours haha.

We had a zone activity for our P-day this week and we all went bowling and then got KFC! It was fun! I also got some ice cream that I've always wanted to try where it's like this frozen ice cream sheet and it's made into thin rolls. They make it in front of you and I had a rose cream flavour so it was pink with this pink drizzle over the top and it tasted so good!!!

Have an awesome week!!

Love Sister Watts

  1. Hey Sister Watts,
    It's great to see you really getting into the swing of things.
    Hope you have much success in one way or another with sharing the gospel.
    Do you do much community service?
    I've been dodging kangaroo road kill on the way to work in the bush outside Warwick where Les works. (Am teaching little kindy age children - a small contract job.)
    Bizarre watching the crows and other flying creatures devour the flesh!!! Eeeerrrk...
    I am grateful for the gospel of Jesus Christ.
    Love
    Debra Black
