Week 6

Hola Familia.

¿Cómo esta?

This week was pretty chill at the MTC. My plans to take over haven´t really moved forward yet, but its getting there. Its still in the planning stages. I only have 2 more P days here. That is pretty freakin exciting. Last night, we welcomed in a new district, and they seem like they will be okay, still a little shocked I think. We get to do some more stuff with them tonight. They were more talkative then we were our first day, so I guess thats good. Course we went nuts the second day, so who knows...Did I ever tell you about our first real MDT? It was nuts. Anyways...

The Devotional was by Elder Snow of the 2nd Quorum of the 70, and he talked about choices. It was a really good talk about how we have made certain choices to get where we are, and that there are people just like us that aren´t where we are. Talking about it after, I realized that a lot of my District came from a lot of different places and and have made a lot of different choices. But we are still here, so obviously we have all made some pretty good ones.

Entonces, mi español es mejor pero necisito practicar más. Mi gramática is el peor pero tngo memorizar muchas verbos hacer oraciones. El parte duro es poder conjugar en mi mente y hablar lo que penso. He leido muchas libros en español y entender todas los cosas. (jajajaja es un chiste). Pero entiendo muchas cosas cuando leer. Las escrituras son muy difícil entender porque usarlo extraño palabras. En verdad.

Anyways, yeah, my Spanish is a little better. I still cant conjugate or make a gramatically correct sentence. But people can understand me if they know English and Spanish. Yay! That will be useful in El Salvador. Not really. But apparently knowing English is pretty big down there, so I´ll get to teach my comps some íngles. I´ve noticed my spelling is going downhill fast.

Oh yeah, Devin guess what? I got two shut outs in MTC soccer. Or my team did. Scores of like 6 to 0 and like 4 to 0 with good attackers on the other team. Highlight of my week. Seriously. And the beach sounded fun.

Oh yeah, I get to host a new missionary next week. It will be fun.

Congrats Jenna, no more sitting around drinking sonic.

Congrats Jamie, wish I could be there.

Anyways, I got to go. I love you all and miss you.
