yep... i´m currently sitting in my own little puddle of water while i´m typing this email. I came from the house to the Lan house (computer shop) and got soaked... haha! i guess that means that my future wife will just be beautiful. Its not the first time that i´ve been drenched in my mission and for some horrible feeling I dont think that it will be the last... =(
Well this week was pretty stinking
awesome! becuase i´ve finally been able to use one of my talents to
teach someone. in fact 3 of my talents to teach someone. =) let me
explain the first talent. =) There was a Young woman in the ward named
Ana Vitoria. we were just making some small talk and the subject came up
of what i did before the mission I told her that i played way to many
video games Sang in a choir and played guitar. that 3rd one grabbed her
attention. ;) she said that she wanted to learn how to play guitar a
lot. so i made a deal with her. I told her that if she could bring
someone to church on sunday I would teach her the basics of guitar. she accepted the deal. So this sunday
she brought a friend to church. =) and so a promise was a promise. I
had to play guitar... and get a free investigater... haha! talk about a
win win situation... =)
Talent number 2! well
its sort of a talent. but we started an english class. while at the
english class we had a couple more less actives come back to church. I
wanted to teach something that would be interesting to them and so I
taught some simple phrases like "whats your name" "how old are you" etc.
we then moved on to the fun part. Slang... =) so I Taught them stuff
like "Whats up dude" "Flip" "Fetch" and "Dangit" Amongst other Slang
words. =) I´m sure they enjoyed it. =)
Talent
number 3! I think i told you guys awhile back that I learned how to Beat
box while i´ve been on the mission. well my companion was like a pro
Hip Hop dancer before the mission. So with his dancing and my beat
boxing we were able to talk to a huge group of young men and young
women. I gave them a beat and they had an improv Rap off in portugues.
that was pretty much freaking awesome.
we
invited them all to go to church. they are all part of a huge dance
group and they invited my Comp to teach them a little bit of what he
knows. he asked if we could leave a short message along with the dance
steps. they agreed. =) the mission is so much more fun and effective
when you can figure out how to be yourself amongst the people. It made
this week just be really a lot of fun.
Any
way. life is going good as you can probably tell. =) hope all is well
there! talk to you all next week.. the pictures are of me with a lizard
that i caught. My new Zone and my Trunky wall right next to where I
study. =) I miss you family!
