hi
hello how was your day todya?
It was really good! I was able to sleep which was really nice. It is always good to be able to get extra bit of sleep And then I got real for church and went with my mother because it was mothers day after that I had to go to my friends talk at her church so it was a long day for me of meetings lol
that does sound like a really long ay
Ya it wa awas and then after I had to get ready for mothers day dinner
that sounds like a long day
it was but I love church and spending time with the fmaiy I think family time is really important.
family time is really important I agree what is your fondest family memory?
I think one off y fondest family memory is when I was little we would just eat together for dinner and laught laugh tell each other stories and how our day was we would talk about random things that didn't even matter or was that interesting but it made it good because we were all together.
that is good spending time with your family and loved ones is always good
yeah I agree something I also really liked doing was watching Korean TV shows every sunday night after or during dinner with my family
what did you watch?
well there was one we always watched on sunday called One night Two days
whats that about?
its about a group of 6 guys and sometimes a guest that will go to a beautiful spot in korea and they will camp there over night these 6 guys are all either comedians for a living or just funny  guys this show was a reality show so no scripts or anything it was really funny loved it
why was it funny?"
It was really funny because these guys would be playing a lot of games or pranks with or against each other in order to get dinner that night or to sleep in side a building with a warm room and blanket instead of cold sleeping bags
what kind of games would you guys play? those guys
wow its been a while since I saw that show but one of my favorite things was when the 6 guys had a chance to win a full meal there at the place they were at whenever they visit a place they always try the local food and its always what the local place best offers this is to advertise and to help people in korea understand and have a bigger knowledge of where they could go on their next vacations anyway these guys needed to jump rope all together. One would run in and start the jump rope then another would have to come in the jump rope then another then another once all the players are in the jump rope they need to jump 3 more times in order to go to the next round of having one of the players start running out of the jump rope until all players are out of the jump rope. but they all failed well they lost the game. but they made a deal with the producer crew that they will start stripping an article of clothing off to keep trying it again because they really want wanted to eat the food
oh my hahahaha
yeah well its gets better it was in the middle of winter so they were freezing their butt off but they did it anyway because they wanted to eat so bad
they were that hungry huh
yeah they were but again they lost and they ran out of clothing items of course they kept their underwear and all that off hahaha on i mean haha
oh i was going to say hahaha its national TV
yeah hahaha mis typed any way they were going to sleep inside of a nice warm building because it was actually really really cold. they wanted to bet their place they were going to sleep for food so they producers there were like are you sure about this? and they were like yes we are so hungry so the producers got together and though about it and came to them with a proposal they told came up to the 6 men and they took a bag of shin ramen (which is a instant ramen package that is super popular in korea. think of it as craft mac and cheese or something)
oh noe... they lose?
well they take the package and asked the six men ok if you guys can guess which side of the package has the seasoning packet then we will give each of you guys a pack of ramen this was so funny because these guys have trying so hard and their fate to get food was 50-50
did they guess it right?
hhahahaha we'll... these guys discussed it real hard and they chose the front of he package and they got it wrong....
nooooo
yeah. it was so bad but so funny because they bet literally everything they had to eat food they could not pull it off and they had to sleep outside in a tent super super cold
that sucks it doesnt sound funny
well yeah normally it would but I think it was really funny here because they bet everything and they could not pull it off with skill of lucky luck* do you think you would have risked your sleeping space?
hmmm maybe I probably wouldnt have
yeah me neither but those guys wanted to make that show more fun and interesting I think in real like if they weren't working or filming this show they would have just gave up and slept
wait so why dont the crew just go buy their own food?
to make it real they don't these guys are really dedicated to the show and they want to make it real as possible and they will only eat the food that they can win and stuff
oh that makes sense real love and dedication right there
yeah hahaha any fun times that you remember with your family?
my favorite family memory is probably the times when we would go to the lake and go fishing and have a picnic we used to do that a lot when i was younger and I have a lot of fond memories
I love that! thats awesome have you seen The Grave of the Fireflies?
no i haven
oh my goodness you have to watch it! its like my most favorite sad movie that is also very inspriing
im not a big fan of sad movies but im all about inspiring whats it about?
I like this movie a lot because it gives me a Studio Ghibli film vibe I don't know if its by him but I think it has a similar art style and the movie is so touching its about these two brothers in Japan and its world wars 2 time. the brothers lose everything in an air raid by the USA. Their parents die and they lose their house and they are now homeless with nothing with them. its about a journey of them and how they survive and how they help and take care of each other one of the brother dies I think I can't remember
oh you just spoiled it
ooooh sorry.. but its worth a watch if you want to feel some love I think they have it on hulu or amazon I think its free on hulu have you seen President Monson's movie?
uhh no
can I tell you about my favorite story about him?
yeah sure
cool so when President Monson was a bishop in a ward there was this man who was very ill and was in the hospital bed riden and President Monson was at a stake bishops meeting or something like that. It was very important. and while he was there President Monson got this feeling to  go visit this member in the ward well he did not get up and leave because he did not want to distract the people there and be disrespectful to the Stake President who was speaking but the feeling came again and he ignored it and it came one more time very strongly so now he could not deny it any longer so he got up from where he was which was in the middle of the room and left he went as quickly as he could to the hospital where the ward member was staying at when he ran up with haste up the stairs and found the floor where he was hospitalized he asked the nurse where the ward member was the nurse asked are you Bishop Monson? and he say yes, where is so and so? the nurse replied I am sorry Bishop Monson but the patient has passed away and in the last 5 minutes he was calling for your name. Bishop Monson thanked her and left and sat on the stair well and he wept and wept because he knew that he denied the spiritual feeling to go visit him because he did not want to be disrespectful to the people in the meeting which is a fair reason but from that day on president Monson promised himself not to ever deny the those spiritual feelings again
oh wow that is quite a story I love him and he has been such a great prophet
yes he has I thought he was really cool and I loved his stories about his childhood I learned from that example to make sure that I can obey the spirit when I have promptings like that I gotta makes sure that I recognize it and make sure that I obey it
yeah thats true sometimes I cant really distinguish between the spirit and my own feelings
yeah me too but something I learned is that it doesn't matter if its the spirit or your own ideas or feelings if the idea or the feeling is a good thing and it prompts you to do good then it doesn't matter if its from God or yourself because it is driving you to do good if it drives you to do good then why does it matter if its from God or not
true that is something that I think I will remember
thanks I also really liked President Monson's story about his first time giving a priesthood blessing in the military when he was leaving to go to the military to serve (i think in the world war 2) he was given a priesthood or missionary's handbook before he left he put that at the bottom of his bag and totally forgot about it. He was also given the melchezidek priesthood before he left well one day when they were in the bunker a fellow soldier was sick. Very sick and they were going to send him home or something but another mormon in his team was like hey Monson you have the priesthood, give him a blessing so President Monson remembered that he had the handbook. He never gave a priesthood blessing or anything like that but he gave the most simplest and beautiful blessing on the soldier and the soldier then had an easier time with his sickness and slept well and was healed the next day
I remember that story I think he shared that story on conference
