Start off with Scotty boy hahahahahahaha are you serious!? the kid is barely out of diapers and he is already checking out for good qualities in a girlfriend! that is hilarious!!! I guess he learned a little too much from me when i would talk to him about girls ahahah oops;)
well for my week, first of all i sent a letter to Dad and one For the Preist Quorem. Open the one with the preist quorem please:)
Okay, For some cultural things that i just think are hilarious! so Zumba here is litterally life. Everyone does zumba and people get in fights over who is a better zumba dancer and there are these people we know that travel the world doing zumba and stuff.....its absolutely hilarious! like in the parks at night there are hundreds of people just going hard doing it!! i love it soo much!!! hahahahahaha
another funny thing is you know how you sent me all those smarties, yeah so i taught like my whole zone how to smoke smarties and they think it is the funniest thing ha so when people come to our pension they always ask for some smarties to practice haha im still the champ, thanks to brian and me practicing all growing up haha
and an interesting story.....so we were doing our studies on friday and at like 12 hermana Leon(a Menos Activo) called us and told us she needed our help with something and my comp wouldnt tell me what it was so we jsut went and then she started explaining how we are going to help bathe her husband....(he is super sick and has been for 10 years and cant barely move himself and is bed ridden) so elder silva and i had to pick up a naked man and carry him accross the house so she could bathe him then afterwards take him back and stuff. It was unconfortable at first and stuff, but after i realized that she couldnt to it without us and it was service it was a humbling experience. afterwards we sung to him and then left but we are going to do this every friday from now on! The spirit of service is the same no matter the type!
So all of our investigaters that are progressing are all doing super good and all should be able to be baptized by their dates this next month!!! super excited!! also, everytime we meet with Jaqueline she reminds me sooo much of Whama!! just the looks she gives and they way she talks and idk just a lot of similarities!! i love it:)
We did divisions this week two separate times, so one was with Elder Workman and i went to his ward and it was cool, he is a cool guy thats from Spring City. He has a Nappy Unibrow tho....hahahaa he teaches really good! im just glad that my comp is Latino because when i was with him it was hard to talk in spanish because we just kept forgetting and stuff....so im so grateful for Elder Silva:) haha THe other Division was with Elder Vasquez from Lima Peru, he is one of our zone leaders. He is one of my favorite people in the world!!! He is such a hard worker and also we were talking about our plans after the mission and stuff and he has a plan and all these goals that he is determined to do! he is going to work in peru until he can afford to fly to utah and he wants to work for a year there and then go to BYU. He was talking how he wants to work in a restaurant or something and so i told him about Costa and he Wants to work there! so maybe in the next 6 months or year he will be in provo working at costa!! he is one of the hardest workers ive ever met! i hope he goes to work for costa, they need him!! hahaa but yeah i love doing divisions! its so cool to work with different people to see how they do things differently:)
So this week was the last week of my first Change in the Feild!! today is the first day of the next change!! this time is flying so fast!!!!!!! Our zone changed a little bit but not much, all that matters is me and elder silva are still together and killin it:)
we met this elder yesterday that just got home from the mission in argentina where the mission president was kidnapped!! he told us the whole story and stuff, was crazy!!!
Well this was me week!!! The spanish is getting better everyday and i hope that i can continue to get better so i can really express my feellings in spanish! I absolutely love it out here and that isnt a exageration!!! Its the greatest!!!!!!!!!!!!:)
