Hey there family!
Thanks for all the happy birthday
wishes! you guys have no idea how much that i would like to be there to
celebrate with you guys but know that i´m still in good hands here. I´ve
become pretty good friends with a member here and she made a special
lunch for me today. =) I was super happy.
Well
I did get everyones email and It made me feel all bubbly inside. I just
about died reading yours kevin. its always a little bit wierd for other
people in the public computer house to see "the mormons" start laughing
in a hushed tone looking at his email. but heck. i´m pretty used to
people looking at me like an alien, (White, Dressed like i´m rich all
the time, clear eyes, MORMON,) its nothing new... haha!
Today
was actually really pretty good for me. this morning my companion
wanted to do something for me on my birthday so he got his "good"
cereal, and some koolaid and made me a breakfast missionary style. haha!
we all had a pretty good laugh about it. then we went to the church to
play some Basket ball and we all had a really great time. one of our
investigators, (who has my same birthday) Played basket ball with us and
brought a mini cake 50 cent to split with us. he was pretty much
awesome. he turned 16 this year.
this week we
also had a pretty awsome adventure. we showed up to teach one of our
investigators (who is part of a dance group) and while we were going to
teach him we saw him practicing with his group in the street. when we
showed up there we talked for a little bit and while we were talking one
of the other guys from the dance group found a tree full off little
green spiny fruits. He grabbed a hand full and threw it at us. that was
pretty much the end of the lesson sadly because we (being super mature)
grabbed the little fruits and started pelting the guy who threw it at
us. with a bunch of youth near by they wanted to feel included and
started joining in by scaling up the tree and stalking up the teams with
a montain of "ammo" it was a pretty awsome 20 minutes of getting our
nice clean white shirts splotched with cute green plant kisses. we all
left laughing however the at our next commitment we had to do a little
bit of explaining.
But thanks again everyone
for remembering me on my aniversario. Know that it really helps give the
boost to just be happy during the week. =) i´ll talk to you all next
week.
