9 January 1999

It was a busy day.  I'm very worn out.  We went to a lot of appointments, taught another first discussion, and I met some of the members.  They were cool.  People here seem very happy.  I can't wait until I can communicate better with them.  The children are especially cool.  And they are unbelievably cute.  It makes me want to marry a Filipina after my mission just so I can have children like the ones here.

We had an appointment this afternoon way out in the bukid (wilderness).  We  took a  15- or 20-minute hike into the wilderness, and when we finally reached our destination, the person we were supposed to meet wasn't there.  Oh, well.  I needed the exercise.

I had an interesting dream last night.  It was really blurry, but this is what I remember:  I was with Elder Kopp and Elder Swingler.  We were walking between some old buildings in Manila.  We sneaked into one of the buildings, and it was the Provo MTC assembly hall.  There were a lot of missionaries coming in and sitting down, because a devotional was going to start soon.  We walked through the crowd in a bit of a hurry.  Then I walked past Sara.  I hurried back to her and asked her what she was doing there.  She told me that she was going on a mission to Washington, and she said it as if I already knew.  I thought for a moment, and then said, "Wait, I think I did know that."  And then I woke up.
