Wow, I don't have a lot of time to email this week! I only have like 15 minutes! I have some spiritual stuff to share in a letter later.

I leave on SUNDAY, September 14th! We leave the MTC and catch a flight around midnight! Fly to Georgia, then Mexico City, arriving in Tuxtla in the afternoon on Monday!! Only sad part is our district is getting split up! We will only be flying with the Tuxtla missionaries The Juarez missionaries along with Chile and El Salvador all take different flights later on Monday.
Funny moments from the week:
Hermano
Ashby ninja kicked me. I was looking down, grabbing my Altoids out of
my bag, when suddenly I hear, "AY AY AY!!!" I look up just in time to
see a crazy look in Hermano Ashby's eyes as he proceeds to ninja kick me.
Like, I'm not kidding...he was completely off the ground as his shoe
made contact with my leg.

So then I jumped up and Hermano Ashby told me to turn around. So, I awkwardly spun around like Katniss Everdeen except less graceful (and not on fire) as the missionaries around me and Hermano Ashby looked for the large bug that was on my skirt. Well, it turns out that Hermano Ashby's ninja kick worked, because we found it dead on the floor. It was a freaking huge spider!! Like the size of a quarter! The entire class was laughing so hard. and Hermano Ashby was just like: "Por su protección!" It was fabulous.
Durante
clase Hermano Ashby said something about being fancy, so I started
singing, "Yo soy Fancy!" Hermano Ashby gave me the "I think this is
funny but we are in the MTC so I have to give you the death look" and I went all shifty eyed and said, "uh... i mean... Yo soy un Hijo de
Dios....." Hahahahhahahaha

So, remember the banana bandits? Yeah, turns out it was OUR VERY OWN SO CALLED RESPONSIBLE DISTRICT LEADERS (who left on Monday). I actually guessed it was them all along.... I knew that calm look was just an act. They had been way to keen on helping us find out who it was.
THE BANANA BANDITS. AY! (Elder Bowen and Elder Murphy....demons)
What's your most embarrassing moment at the MTC?
Well, I don't get embarrassed easily..or I guess I do but then I get over it and move on. But I guess I could tell you of some moments that may have been awkward/embarrassing for other people.
1) In my past life, I called everyone babe. So, I've slipped up a couple of times and called a couple of Elders babe.

3) I thought I was playing footsie with my companion and it was actually an Elder who thought it was his companion. Moral of the story? Don't play footsie with ANYTHING under the table..even if you think its your companion or a table leg.
4. So during the Sisters meeting on the very first Sunday (in the MTC) they told us that part of being a sister missionary was SHAVING YOUR LEGS. I kid you not. It was appalling! I have blond hair. Nobody's touching my legs! You can't even tell if they're hairy! I only shave them like once a week! So I was getting worked up about this one day and I said something (rather loudly) to the effect of: "THEY WANT US TO SHAVE OUR LEGS EVERYDAY? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I NEVER SHAVE MY LEGS!!" And Hermano Ashby walked in right at that moment with this shocked look on his face. His eyes were HUGE! hahaha!
Okay! I gotta go!
8 MORE DAYS IN THE MTC!!! AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Con Amor,
Hermana Hansen
Hermana Hansen's last day to receive letters, dear elders or packages at her MTC address is this Friday, September 12th.
