Hikes, Puerto Ricans, and da drunks

Look at this fat daddy cat, or should I say, look at my future?
Hello,
Let me start this email with
WE WENT ON ANOTHER STINKING HIKE I CANNOT HANDLE!!!
You know, I don't remember the zone ever being like "Hey Sister Wingate. Do you think a hike would be good for a zone p-day activity?" 
I'm mad!
So you know I complained a lot, because I am MAD!
At the end after hiking like 4 hours, I apologized for complaining so that's my good deed for the day. 
BUT then we also saw Sister Simpkins! Even though I'm not in her ward anymore, still in the stake, and I love her so.

What else happened this week ?
Oh! Sister Anderson! So she was off date for a while, and she put herself back on date for baptism. She is awesome. We are doing a lesson outside the temple with her Thursday, I'm STOKED.

Hmmm...

We were driving down from Lytle Creek (the random mountain part in our area) and we saw kids that looked like they were in pain, so we turned around and asked if they were okay. And one of the kids said "yeah, we just accidentally got realllllly drunk", I might have rolled my eyes straight out of my head. 

Oh! Also so there was a really big some kind of natural disaster in Puerto Rico right? So the California Redlands Mission just got 8 new missionaries ! They came in with only the clothes on their backs, and it was so amazing to see everyone in the Rialto 1st Ward take action, and donate clothes, toiletries, and gift cards for these missionaries. Man I love people. 

Woman's conference ! That happened, it was honestly so amazing,  I want to share this little part
Our investigator Evelyn! She was waiting for the bus so we had to stop and say Whadddup!
Home girl Dominique, love her a lot.



We got frozen yogurt after the hike, so can't be too mad I guess

Not A whole lot happened this week I don't think, but it was good ! We are going into the last week of the transfer, so next Monday we will find out what's happening, pretty sure Sister Read and I will stay together.

Last transfer-6 more weeks to home!!!! Okay okay ,  it's transfer week, I'm about to have the most baller last transfer or my life because I'm still with Sister Harris (Love of my life ) and I'm staying in the YSA  (Also love of my life )  I'm so excited. Okay, can we talk about 3 days in a row somebody brought up how I was going home soon ? Friday : Guenter : "hey! You're almost done !" Me : *wrecked * Saturday : Elder Rodriguez : "Sister Wingate ! You're almost done aren't you ? How long do you have left ?" Me : *hangs up * Sunday : Elder Famui : "Sister Wingate ! You only have a transfer left !" Me : *hangs up* It's fine. I'm fine.  But we did have some cool miracles this week.  We made pumpkin cookies with our friend Lyndsee to drop off to the sororities/ frat houses around the University of Redlands. We went to one home and they told us we were welcome back anytime! ...

Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllo, This week was very .. . We got puli tahas! aka tongan attire  So first we had interviews with president, which was cool. President Dixon, he is kind of a funny guy, which makes it fun to talk to him. But nothing too exciting happened there. Transfers are Wednesday, and Sister Ganus and I are staying together another transfer. Wow. Same companion AND area for more than 1 transfer? I will let you know how that goes. I told President I wouldn't know what it was like to have something constant for 2 transfers, and he apologized and said when he put me in Rialto 1st he was expecting me to be there a while, but Tonga needed me. He also told me that Bishop B. (of Rialto 1st) told him if he could ever get me back to Rialto 1st he needs to do it. So President ALSO told me he can see me going back there towards the end of my mission. I would be so excited. What else happened this week? OH!I got the flu! so that sucked....

Me and a pumpkin  So wow , it was a lot of lasts this week.Had my last zone conference , It was interesting , Elder Schetselaar almost passed out at the pulpit. I gave my testimony at zone conference because I am going home,  I held myself together,  accidentally put my hand in Elder Schetselaars sweat at the pulpit too. Then we closed zone conference with "I'll go where you want me to go" and I straight lost it, I just sobbed, I couldn't even get words out. I looked at President and he just gave me a smile and a wink. How dare he send me away :(  Then we got flu shots !! FREE flu shots, I love free things.  Then we had MLC, my last MOW. Last time seeing some of my friends until I go home #wrecked  It was cool because my entire mission , if someone has shared a scripture around me , I mark it , and we spent the first like 10 minutes of MLC sharing different scripture verses from the Book of Mormon !  We went in a corn maze/ ...
