Visa Run to Singapore!
By Leighton | May 8, 2007
Wow, this week I got to take a Visa Run to Singapore with Elder Stevenson, cause our Visa’s were expired, so we had to go get them re-chopped. So I was really excited because it was my old area, and I got to go and meet lots of the people who I knew and taught there. I was wayyyyy excited. We stopped in Kuching to switch flights, then blasted on to Singapore. We landed in Singapore and reported to the Mission Office, then went off to Sim Lim Square to look at electronics. Elder Stevenson wanted to buy a camera. We looked at a few, and in the end, he bought the same kind I have. It is a nice camera. Then we went to eat at SUBWAY!!! I love Subway, and it has been 3 months since I’ve had any American food. Yay! It was good. Then we went back to the office and I went with Elder Ferdi (my old buddy from Sri Lanka) and Elder Hagobian (from Iraq) and we went to the Seasons Park Condo, my old house. It was really cool. Then I made some calls and went to meet some people with Elder Antony (from Sri Lanka) and Elder Worley. We went to see the Lim Family first. Only Kandace, Sam, and Sister Evelyn were there. But they invited us in and we got to chat for a while. It was a lot of fun^^. Then we had to rush to an appointment in Sembawang. On the way, we ran into Abish Lai^^ She is so awesome, it was good to see her again, and also Jennifer Yu. She is really nice too. And they both recognized me, despite my crazy short new haircut, lol. Then we also met up with Joseph Goh, and he came with us to the Marican’s house to help us with the appointment. The appointment was good, then we went to see Derrick and Jency. They were there, and it was soo cool to see them again. So we didn’t have much time, but we said hi to them. Then I went to see Alan Thong and his awesome family. I was in for awesome new… Alice got baptized!! And Alan’s mom has a baptism date!!! So awesome! I was so happy. Then we rushed home and I got a call from Nancy saying she had seen me there at a bus stop. So I got to talk to her for awhile too. So cool. I slept soudly that night. In the morning, I went to meet Romesh. He is still doing awesome! I love Romesh, cause he is so cool, and he is really smart and friendly, and he has a strong testimony. He is probably my favorite… well, better not pick favorites haha. But he is cool. He gave me some Italian handkerchiefs and candy. So cool. He said he is considering serving a mission. Wow! That would be so cool… Anyways.. we flew back and I got in to the Kuching Airport. I bought an RC helicopter. It was really cool. Then we flew to Bintulu. The next day, we played soccer again with the youth in the rain. Afterwards, Elder Rowley was really sick. He had to stay in all day. He has been sick all the way til now. We went to see a doctor. I am so bored staying inside all day!!!! I am losing my mind!!! Oh well, guess I can write some letters… Well, that’s about it. Here are the pics for this week:
