Week 15 - Good news - on my way to Hong Kong!

Well I've got some good news. I'm on the way to Hong Kong right now. We got a call yesterday at 8:00 AM saying that we got the greenlight to leave and we would leave at 4:00 AM the next morning. So yeah. Pretty wild. I spent most of the day packing and prepping. We had to drive down to the Richmond office for dinner with President and Sister Wahlen and then slept at the AP's house. It doesn't seem real. It was weird to say goodbye to Elder Sun and Elder Tan. We're all pretty stoked because we were all fully prepared to stay for a long long time in Canada. It's also pretty sketch because we have heard a little bit of what's going on right now on the news. But we'll be fine, the areas where all the crap is going down are closed. The funny part is that the older group of Hong Kong missionaries are still stuck for another transfer due to Visa problems. Anyways, not much else happened this week, lots of lessons and finding through Tai Chi and ping pong. It's hard to leave Willoughby right now because I feel like I'm finally just getting comfortable in the area, finally able to talk somewhat with our people we are teaching. Seriously, they just barely started to acknowledge my existence, but I guess it's time to go. Wish me luck! I may have time to write a more fleshed out letter later.
