Pre-Mission Assessment

Yesterday, I went in for my Pre-Mission Assessment at LDS Family Services. What this is is a series of about 300 personality questions. You answer them by circling 1 of 4 choices. Not True, Slightly True, Mostly True, and Extremely True. The test went by fine, but I always have a bit of a hard time answering some of the questions, especially when it gives you two 'middle-ground' options. Also, some of the questions were things like, "My Drinking problems affect those I care about." These of course, didn't apply to me, yet were difficult to answer. If I say Not True, is that also saying, My drinking problems don't affect those I care about, still implying that I drink. So that was a bit complicated. There were also questions that used to apply, but don't anymore, yet ones that still needed to be addressed in an interview. I wanted to write next to the question little commentaries explaining how I felt or what it meant. But all in all, a very straight forward test.
Things are still a little crazy and stressful for me here. School is about to start, and I still don't know if I should really register for classes or not, because my call probably won't get here until after classes start. And after it does get here, I still don't know if I will be leaving before the semester is over or after. But still, I am trusting in God and in His Timing. He knows what is best, and I can see right now He is still teaching me things. I've got a lot to learn, but it is better knowing He loves and cares about me.
All the Love,
Future Sister Holly Howell
