Service:
Every Thursday morning at 630am we had Service. Because my companions and I were 'solo' we were never actually assigned anywhere to clean - so we could have technically not done it, slept in, or just went to breakfast earlier - BUT, we didn't. We would always get up at 620am, pray and then go to our service - we always headed down stairs and asked what could be done in our building - we always had the SAME job - cleaning the BATHROOMS!! We got a litte trolly with loo papers and paper towels on it, we had to make sure everything was stocked up, and clean out all the bins - had to do every bathroom on every floor of our building, we had 5 floors and there were two bathrooms on every floor - in every bathroom there were maybe 5-6 dunnies! Once we cleaned out the bins, we took the garbage down stairs and put it in one of those massive wheelie bins - you know the ones with FOUR wheels - yep, one of those. Then we had to roll that wheelie bin out to another HUGER steel bin- then empty all of our rubbish into that!
Sister Hynynen with the trolly - I think we named it, Rosy or something - I don't remember, it was always so early we probably even changed it every week...
(and you can tell from this photo that it was 630 in the morning as I look like I just rolled out of bed - and literally, I did!)
Room inspection:
Every Tuesday someone came around and check our rooms to make sure they were spick and span - we got marked on it, and then our mark went to our branch president at the MTC. Every Monday night we vacuumed, made sure our towels were folded perfectly, that EVERYTHING was put away - seriously, if you had your eye glasses sitting next to the mirror then you got marked down!!
So here is us, cleaning our room..
This is a typical picture actually - Sister Prusse cleans, Sister Hynynen stuffs her face, and I was taking photos (well usually i was just watching, but this was an exception)..
