what the heck I'm transferred already

Yes, that's right. After only two transfers, I've already been shifted out of Park Ridge ward. Bruh. After spending 5 transfers in Atherton (my second area) and being in Park Ridge (third area) for only two is quite a contrast. I was really bummed out to hear I was getting transferred. But our week was actually pretty solid, we got a couple new investigators that are really keen. One of the investigators we planned on setting on baptismal date soon, Revern, was asking us all sorts of questions about hot drinks in the word of wisdom and why Mormons do so well in business. He's a cool guy. I didn't get to say goodbye to a lot of members because of church and we had a couple appointments and a dinner to go to, and a lot of the members I got close with live a ways in different directions so I mostly just said goodbye at church. Pictures will be of the Mothers day call, which was great, Also a couple pictures of when I left the area and with one of the priests, Patrick, who I got really close with because he came out to teach with us a lot. 

So yeah, here's the score:

I'm on my 11th transfer (6-wk period) now.

It's my first transfer in Bunya Forest-my new area.

Bunya Forest is my third area.

Oh yeah and one more thing- my green missionary is already a district leader. Honestly I was pretty shocked but even more shocking was that I'm a DL now too. Waow. Plus me and my companion Elder Iufoni are whitewashing Bunya Forest which means both of us are brand new to the area. We were in the same zone the last couple transfers so we already are pretty friendly with each other. Plus we both served in bracken ridge (my first area) just not a the same time but it's fun talking about it. Plus the area we're serving in now actually borders bracken ridge, it's literally right next to us so that's pretty cool. But yeah, that's me. Super sad but super nervous. Plus Elder Banks, one of my previous companions is in my district because he's in the mission office, which is part of our district. Our zone covers the heart of Brisbane City. Transfers are always a crazy time but yeah there you go.
