Today was my first day in church. Young Women's was in English and I went to the adult Sunday school that was offered in English. Sacrament meeting was a different story. My dad borrowed some translator boxes from the missionaries there. We plugged in our head phones and were able to listen to the speakers in Norwegian in one ear and English in the other. It didn't automatically translate, however, some of the members offered to translate. One man who is trying to improve his English, because he has a really bad accent. An elderly man who speaks without any accent and a sister in the ward. It was so weird to listen to the headphones because I am so used to just listening and understanding.
I got really tempted in the middle of the meeting when my brother was asleep to unplug his headphones, turn up his volume all the way and then put his headphones back. I changed my mind though knowing that one day I will fall asleep with my headphones in and my brother will love to get revenge.
