Oh my gosh where do i start we got off the plane and it took a while to get our bags. We got them however on the ride to the MTC it was crazy!! the buss driver was like the taxi driver in Belize scurting through any little space he could but i have learned that the horn is a very useful tool. the first night was pretty cool we got our stuff into our room and i couldn't find my comp yet so i went to dinner. i meet some people and one of them went to mountain view she was super nice. the next day i meet my comp we literally have nothing in common except were both white. he is from north carolina he doesn't like nature, thinks before he acts...so he is sensible, likes band not a truck guy but wants some sort of Subaru. whats up with that. anyone who reads this i want you to know i love yall so much!! Spanish is hard i cant roll my rrs yet but im getting there i have to put a pen in my mouth and read from the book of Mormon is Spanish then re read it to know what it says its hard but i love it. one of the most annoying things besides the routine here is one of the rules is you cant be a gentlemen because it could be seen as an act of flirting so i may have slipped up on that rule once or twice. i mean if your going to put your dirty tray in the wash why cant you take a sisters plate as well. i got a visit from grandma on the third day mom it was awesome i was having a super hard time with the grammar but she just told me that everything will be okay and as long as i work my hardest i wont have anything to worry about. my district is pretty cool there are all sorts of personalities here geeks and nerds, jocks, jockers, and even a guy from Canada. ive been using that note book alot dad that you gave me and i really like the cover i always leave my patriarcal blessing in there and whenever im feeling down i read it or open the book of Mormon to a random page and those two techniques always work. Which reminds me if anyone is ever feeling down then just open to a random page and start reading it will saprise yall the things yall find.
...
before i end i want everyone to look up 2 scriptures
1st is the first few verses in Moroni it is super cool and i hope yall can see why if not i will tell you next week
2nd is Moroni 10 and read the chapter out loud then read the chapter again but put your name or relate it to you before every {ye}
