September 11th Letter

JOKE TIME!!! ok so god created Adam and said I'll make you a companion who will be you help meat and you personal friend who will be there with you at all times do everything you ask, will always love you, and will agree with you, and will be your best friend,.. But Adam god said, it’s going to cost you an arm and a leg
... What can I get for a rib...?

HAHAHAHAH :) Love you guys!!
So first off here goes!

My week started off sitting with thee Hermana missionaries at dinner about 20 while my companion was sick in the bathroom. They were talking about guys and I just started laughing! They said what?!?! And I was like nothing! I just well it takes me back home, I miss my sisters and they were like were talking about chic flicks what would you know hahah I was like I know woman and chic flicks better than woman know them :) well several Hermana’s almost killed me right then and there with the sharpened bones from what was supposed to be chicken we were expected to eat but after some time we decided to have a competition where I in turn blew all 24 Hermana’s out of the water :) yeah I still got it :) anyway then we play volleyball every day for an 1hr and well we pretty much own! I have got really good at my jump serve in the sand and my dig is pretty hard to beat :) will play when I get home but ok first purchase out of the CCM is going to be a waffle iron ;) seriously breakfast here is still bad but whatever :) rain here is interesting it’s like walking out of the misters at Wal-Mart hahah there really isn't no rain you just get wet :) I was on sick duty yesterday I spend all morning and into the afternoon watching over my companion and another one with food poisoning the one kids was his birthday ironic yeah, anyway I read a lot and studied it was nice :) THE SUN CAME OUT: D I was so happy oh I danced and sang all morning! (Interestingly enough I was reprimanded by president Carden did you know missionaries aren’t supposed to dance... interesting anyway :) I cannot print stuff off here so I’d love to have those pictures sent to me along with stamps :) you can{t buy stamps unless at the post office but we don{t have enough time on p days and it might be easier just for you to send me my first letter with a bunch of global stamps but I´m not sure I’ll look into it :) the Latinos left again today! upstairs is awfully quieted one kid though tore his mattress this last week so they got him a brand new 8inch Serta mattress.. like plush kingdom anyway so when he left we snuck it out and switched um :) been sleeping like an angel thanks for asking :) well here’s my experience for the week :) proselyting! yup that’s right we get and got to go proselyting in the ccm :) the computer doesn’t recognize that word so I'll just say teach, so I got paired up with Elder Salas to go teach, he speaks fluent English"! oh how blessed was I :) anyway so we got on a bus and went to a town of Manchay, they{re we were met by elders with worn shoes mud stained pants and well it looks liked we were going to war. they gave us instructions barked out orders and we were off... what the crud am I doing was my first thought. I had culture shock so bad; I was in a different world. Houses consisting of tarps thrown up over poles, or shanties that wouldn’t even constitute the durability of a little Caesars pizza box! I was shocked garbage everywhere people going to the bathroom... well everywhere, watch where you step. I was so lost my companion knocked on a door, which I later found out was a door, it dint look like one to me. Anyway he started talking in Spanish the man let us in he shared our message turned to me I looked shock... what are we doing I said. he laughed said give him the book so I handed him the book of Mormon and we left... this continued 9 times I got to testify some but all in all I had no idea what was going on, I got cat called at and whistled to and giggled and all manner of shameless banter from the women and well... I wanted to go home right then. it was a really great experience don{t get me wrong but we were let into every house everyone lets us in!! literally they are all so nice! but well I struggled for days after that, but the lord strengthened me through some of the most fervent prayer I've ever uttered. these next 2 years are going to be interesting :) I love you all to quote Pres. Holland: all things are possible to them that believe: love you all
