SAM Cox asked me to tell her what I've learned so far. That is actually impossible but I'm going to say just 25 of the things I thought of. They aren't the most important or in any particular order, but just what came to my mind.
1. Flea bites itch. ALOT!
2. Watch out for dog poop.
3. If you don't understand, just nod your head with a conserned look on your face.
4. Popcorn made on the stove is super delicious
5. Pizza tastes better warmed up on a frying pan rather than in a microwave
6. The words for face and car in Spanish are very similar. Along with payed and sin.
7. Just ignore the cat-calls and the random English sentences creepy men yell at you when you walk by
8. Mo-Tab ROCKS!
9. Don't tell people you like something in their house. They'll give it to you.
10. Wear sunscreen when you are 10,000 fe above sea level.
11. If you're bus is leaving, run to catch it!
Now maybe somethings more on the Spiritual side:
12. The main reason why so many families are broken is becuase men don't learn how to control their passions (unfaithful, drunk, angry, etc..) and women don't know how to lovingly demand respect.
13. God seriously does answer prayers
14. The church is more true than I ever thought
15. When you fight with your testimony, it grows
16. Obedience really is the first law of heaven. If you love God, you obey, it's that simple.
17. The closer you get to your Heavenly Father, the more you realize how far you've got to go.
18. Alcohol distroys lives and families.
19. Everyone needs the gospel. It's the plan Heavenly Father made for us.
20. General Conference is so amazing. It never really sunk in that Thomas S. Monson is literally a prophet the same way that Abraham, Moses, and Noah were.
21. No matter how strong the Spirit is or how much you study or know or how much you pray for someone to accept the gospel, they still have their agency and can still say no.
22. You sin when you forget your divine potential
23. Faith is getting on the bus to go to church without having the money to pay for it.
24. If everyone would just keep their baptismal covenent, there wouldn't be very many Mormons wtih non-member friends. A lot of them would get baptized.
25. All those missionaries that I thought were super nerdy because they always said the Book of Mormon rocks were completely right all along.
Christ lives. I represent Him. He restored HIs church again on the earth and everyone can partake of the joy the gosple brings. My heart breaks when people say it's not for them. They don't realize the reality of what they're saying: that ETERNAL LIFE and ETERNAL BLISS just isn't for them, that the reward God the Father has for them isn't as good as the plans they have for themselves. Have hope that your mansion in heaven is so much more than the one you could ever have here.
Love. Love. Love.
