Hey Everybody,
So another week down the drain. How is everybody doing? A little update, we got our travel plans. Which means that I have a visa, and that I will be leaving on monday. So I am so stoked. I can't wait to get out there. So Utah huh, hahahaha I am just loving this. NO ONE is saying anything about the game because they know that there team sucks. And that they said a bunch of stupid stuff about how they were so much better than us. So it is great.
Also sorry about not being able to write last week, I didn't get any letters until thursday and then I got all of them at once. I feel bad that I couldn't answer them then, but I hope you understand. So travel, we leave here at three in the morning fly from salt lake around six and then go to dallas. Then we have a three or four hour lay over there, and fly to new york where we also have a three or four hour layover. Then it is off to Buenas Aires, and we still have no idea how we are getting from buenas aires to Mendoza. So that will be interesting to say the least. So we fly out of new york at like nine at night and get there at like nine in the morning so it is going to be an all night flight. I hope I can get some sleep or something. But ya know it is all good. I have heard that it is a bus that is like ten hours or something to get to mendoza, so that will be very interesting. And also like forty plus hours of travel time. I can't wait to be smashed into an airplane. But oh well, I get to leave here and that is all that matters.
So I should have plenty of time to call everybody. How am I doing this by the way. Do I need to find a calling card? Or are you guys sending me something. I just need to know the best way to do everything. So fill me in.
My companion and I got picked to do this how to begin teaching for the new elders that come in this week. So tomorrow night we have to go in and teach some fake investigators in front of 500 people. It is going to be so much fun. NOT!!!! The note they gave us just said thank you for your participation not will you do it. SO I guess there was no need for the thanks if they are forcing us to do it.
I need covers for my scriptures. I don't have anything to put them in. I hear that you can get stuff when you get down there, but I don't have anything now and I don't know if you guys can find something. The spanish ones are a little longer as in taller than my english ones. And it is two separate books, my english ones are a quad. So I don't know if that is possible but if you can that would be awesome. So ya anything you can do. Also there is a kid in here that had his mom go to a copy shop in provo and got him a shrunken down preach my gospel...he said they had them in spanish and english. So maybe check that out. Because that would be helpful to have to not have to carry around the huge book I have now. If you can that would be awesome. If not no big deal.
Thanks for the ties again I love them all. And also thanks for the packages they are wonderful. I love getting everything you guys send. I will be sending my extra stuff on like saturday, so you should expect a box of stuff around the first part of next week. If all goes according to plan. So keep an eye out for that one.
So M. Russell Ballard came and talked to us this past week, and also we are supposed to be getting an apostle tonight to talk about the new ensign that came out about the book of mormon. They gave every missionary a copy. If you haven't seen it I would suggest looking at it. It is amazing. I don't however have it in spanish. Which would be nice to have. But oh well life goes on.
I am guessing this letter is jumping around, but that is how I usually write so deal with it. Mom I think I am going to keep the two suits if I have enough room. Because it would be easier for me to have it than, to have you send it to me. So I will just take it with me. But like my basketball shoes and some shorts and stuff I will be sending. I hope that I am not over the weight limit in my bags. Because it seems pretty pricey to be so that isn't good. I will have to make things work. I might send one of the pair of sheets home. Because they are heavy and that is one thing I have extra of. What do you think? I don't think I need anything else, but at this point I really don't know. I have gone through everything and I think I will be ok. But we shall see won't we.
I don't really have a whole lot else to say. Other than I love all of you guys and thanks for the support thus far. I am going to need it for sure in the next few weeks trying to understand people. I hope it goes better than I think, because I feel like I won't understand anything. Which is not very comforting at this point but it will all be good. I will have no choice but to pick up the language. I'll be good though. I hope I have answered all of your questions about things you need from me. I think my lay overs are like 10 to 2 and 6 to 9 on monday. Or something close to that. So I will try and call everybody during those times. I hope all is well. And the leller fellers aren't being to big of stinks. I love you all and I'll talk to you soon.
