Week 3 8/29 Dilly Dilly Week 3Finished
Mornin!! hahaha
Well, i dont remember where i left off last week so imma just start with the temple trip on wednesday. Every district does 2 temple tricks while they are here and they played us dirty cause we went our first 2 weeks, so pretty much we have nothing to look forward to for the next 4 weeks. But thats alright. The temple was way cool untill i got to the start of the endowment session and realized i forgot the name and my headphones stopped working. So pretty much I had to listen to the entire session in all spanish. I think i almost fell a sleep like 4 times. hahaha
The rest of the week weve just been learning and teaching investigators 2 times a day. The only thing i look forward to are the meals that are still pretty bad... except costco pizza on tuesdays hahaha. Also my Afternoon teacher, Elder G is super awesome, he loves us and jsut wants to have fun with us while teaching. When we walk from the classroom to our Online Class we play a game where we try to kick these weird seed shells between each others legs while they are walking. Its a soccer thing, so i dont really get it but is fun!! haha
Oh yeah, Friday night Elder Bednar came and gave a devotional. It was about the dankest thing ever! He pretty much gave the best devotional in the entire world by just asking the audience questions and having us respond. So really he didnt teach anything but tricked us into teaching each other, if that makes sense. But definitely an experience I wont forget.
The days here kinda blow and feel like muiltple days inside of one. But the weeks fly by, today i was talking with our new district that got here last tuesday and I asked them how there first couple of days were and they were super confused and they told me that they had been here a week already, and my mind like nearly exploded, i couldnt comprehend that they had already been there a week, it literally felt like yesterday. Our district jokes about when people told us before our missions "its gonna be over just like that!" or "Spanish will come just like that!!" so pretty much everything that doesnt seem true but will probably feel true in like a couple of months.
Ive love my district and zone here, they are just the biggest goof balls. They say the dumbest things and i think there just hilarious cause theres nothing else her to entertain me and make me laugh. Im super duper ready to get into the field and just get to work, cause it seems like when we are working hard time just goes Mach 5 and its all of a sudden bed time already.

As hard as its been here in the CCM being away from home, family, and friends... I know im here for the right reason and just need to remember that everyday, even when it doesnt seem possible.
Love,
