Well, Summer definitely happened. The sun doesn't really go down, the rainy season is past, it's like 21-23°C every day, and everybody knows how to rollerblade here.
Plus, there is a ton of stuff to go over.
First of all, the BBQ I mentioned last week: it turns out that nobody that we invited showed up. But! We did talk to the guy who made T-shirts for us and now we are going to "practice" teaching him. Which is kind of cheating I guess, but I need to practice teaching anyway.
Second thing, CANADA DAY?! It's on the 1st of July, this Saturday. I'm not too sure what's going to happen, but I'm excited.
Third, transfers are next week! Chances are really, really good that I am going to be booted out of Leduc soon. But with President Pattison, anything can happen.
Fourth! In July, we are going to be the first mission in Canada with smartphones and Facebook. That'll be weird. The smartphones I can handle, but I've never used Facebook before, so we'll see what happens.
Also, I went to the temple today! We only get to go to the temple four times a year, so I can hardly even imagine being in a place without a temple while on my mission. Today, I felt the Spirit stronger than I ever have in the temple before. I can feel myself becoming ever closer to God and the person who He wants me to be.
In reply to a question about languages: I have actually met people here who only speak French, or their first language was French. There are a lot of people here from other parts of Canada or from random places in Europe, so the languages are still fairly diverse. That being said, everything here still has French words next to the English ones.
Though, now that I think about it, I think the most common non-English language I hear would be Mandarin Chinese.
