Hola famila.
I only have 28 minutes left to write..sigh. SO much to say.
I'm not sure if you got my first letter yet, but it was about my first
days here so I won't waste time in writing that.
Me and my companion are
getting along fine still. Although he is starting to get where he
thinks the whole district is his companionship. He is to worried about
what everyone else is doing...Maybe that will impove I hope. Okay so the
food is TASTES good, but it like screws you up interally. It makes you
feeel awful and it makes you need to poop alot...haha. It's like a free
for all with food, but I try to control myself. I have a salad every
meal (besides breakfast) and also a banana every meal. Nikki was right,
the wraps here are great. It tastes like Chipotle...super good. Today we
went to the temple for the first time, we did an endowment session.
That was cool and very spirirtual. We ate breakfast there too.
Almost
every day we have a gym time. for ~50 minutes. Not enough time at all,
but whatever. I always want to play soccer haha. At first my companion
hated soccer, but I said to try it this once... and now he likes it. I
converted him haha. He is really attached to another missionary in our
district and he basically wants to do whatever he wants to do. Such a
follower...haha anyways, that kind of bugs me. I want to be like I am
your companion not him! Maybe i'll have the courage to bring it up in
our planning meeting together. Other than that we get along pretty well.
The spanish is so extreme and intense.. like i'm so overwhelmed but I
am getting it little by little. I'm doing much better than my companion
in spanish. He always has to ask me for words and how to pronounce
things...haha. In our discussions with our investigators, since I know
more spanish than him, I'm usually the one doing to the talking (unless
we have something written out, then he reads) Pronunciation is ehhh..
for him. But I'm glad I ca understand about 40% of what the investigator
says. I'll catch words here and there and can put it all together. It's
cool. I like being the one that can do something better than everyone
else.. I'm not usually that person. And I don't want to be like fulll of
myself..haha But I want to help my companion speak better and sound
better. Elder Parker is the senor companion, so I guess he calls most of
the shots. This will change..haha. I´m kind of a pushover and that is
something I am trying to change. I´m going to be nice about it, but he
kind of pushes me around. Anyways haha I know this probably just sounds
like I´m venting from my companion, which I kinda am, but I love the
guy.
Okay soo what else. The MTC is okay. At first I didnt like it but
now I am getting kind of used to it. Now i have the attitude of I´m
going to be sad when I leave. Today, wednesday, new missionaries are
coming in. We talked to this Elder about coming in. He was way nice, and
im pretty sure he is way scared.. like I was haha.
So I was told that I
should probably expect to be reassigned to another mission. But that I
should have faith.. haha what does that mean? Anyways, 3 people in my
district (and that I room with) are also going to bahia blanca. Elder
evans friend just got back from the exact same mission. He said that if
you are in the city then it is nice. Apparently Bahia blanca is a rich
place, because they are at a bay and what not. But if you are away from
the city, that it is pretty ghetto. Like dirt floor status...haha oh
no.. He also said that the government down there is pretty whack.. like
their tax write offs are insane and really corrupted. Like he said that
some housed will have a dirt floor and live in a shack but they will
have a flat screen tv..haha. Sooo I don't really know what to expect.
I'm honestly just so excited to go down there. It's a whole new world to
me!
Also Please send me some phillipine brand dried mangos! :D haha and
more Hi-chew. You can but it cheap at super walmart. Also Send me my
toms when they come. Also please send me the random things from china
that I bought. And my camera. Tell Langley and Dallin And Matt to WRITE
me.. no emails for now until I am out in the field at least. Please pass
this email along to family or my friends. I don't have time to write
people individually, sorry! Maybe I'll learn to better use my time?
idk... Umm ALSO we arent allowed to call home on mothers day :( ....waH
WHA WHA... haha. LAME. I almos might need more spiral notebooks.Will
you please send me michelles and dallins addresses (at college) . Ask
them on facebook for it. I'm not really homesick anymore unless I think
about it, If I keep myself busy then I won't be sad. Although I do miss
miracle a lot.. haha she was my best friend! hahaha
Okay I think thats
all the time I have. DANG, 30 minutes goes fast. I love you all! AND I
miss you so much! I am here where I need to be though, doing the Lords
work. Yesterday we got to hear from one of the seventy... I hear general authorities come a lot... So I'm looking forward to that. I'm trying to
write in my journal alot.. like almost a page a day. my companion always
make fun of me that I write so much.. whatever lol He is going to
regret it later! ANYWAYS! I love you all, I'm doing great-ish...haha
LOVE YOU GUYSSSSSS!!! :)
