Ya right, I knew you would forget about me when Bryson got home! Ha. JKJK Its all good! Thanks for the email this week.
Thats so sad to hear what happened with austin. I feel so bad for them. He is in a better place tho, I know the ward will take good care of his family.
Well we are still working with our investigaotr, she has a lil probalem with the word of wisdom. But she is awesome. We went to a bunch of ohuses before church and called people the night before and noone came to church, my comp was really depressed, they even had a ride for one of our investigators and they didnt come. People say yes to everything here so its hard to tell who is serious sometimes. so that was sad this week. The other companionship is having like a baptism every week, and investigaotrs at church. Im not comparing!...just sayin. ha
This was a tough week, i am so freakin exhausted, but im making sure im always up at 630. Ive been trying to do 100 push ups and situps a day, my comp works out like crazy, he has a pull up bar i use a little bit. He had a comp from centralia who gave it to him.
We get fed really well by the members here, its usually really good. We had churrasco a couple times this week its like their barbecue, and its really good! Ha, lots of people think im from Brazil, they say i have a brazillian face, not an american face. Ha. I havent gotten to tan yet, we have had some rain, and i guess the rainy season is starting up pretty soon. I had a humbling experience the other day, we went to this less actives house and it was in a reeeallly poor area and the girl had one fake leg, and her mom was with her, and she was just the happiest girl in the world and thier house was barely a house to be honest, and the mom started crying it was crazy to see these people in these circumstanes and the girl was so happy! wow.
Well the lenguage is really difficult, i will probably complain about that for a while. ha. but it really is frustrating. My comp and i are really trying to be exactly obedient. He is a good guy. He is really positive and it helps me cause ive been really homesick here. Weird. im 20, im not supposed to get homesick. I get overwhelmed alot with the time, I hate being the beginer, I just wanna be good! The culture the people the language the walking the expectations, AGHH! It kills me sometimes. This is definately a testing period for me, wether I will shrink or blossom. Im so grateful for the atonement, and the enabling power of the atonement. I need it right now, thats the only way to get through times like these.
But thank you for all the help, I heard you called the mission office. Thank you! I will try and do that today.
Go tbirds! They are in the semis??? thats crazy I wish I could be there to see. NGUNNGU. Jake could end up playing in a state championship if someone gets hurt, be prepared!
That stinks byu lost, almost the same score as last year. Ha, two more years and i know someone who can help out in the middle, if his knee gets better.
If you can throw my little pin drive in the package too thatd be sweet if not its ok. it should be in my old back pack.
Well I love and miss you guys! i hope everything goes well up there and you arent having to much fun without me!
i am going to print your talk off and read it later for inspiration, thanks DAD!
Amo Vôces!
