we got a new phone finally! but nothing is configurated yet, so typing is super difficult.. *we went to san cristobal on pday and got some food and toys and stuff *we've been finding some new people, and starting to get a lot closer to baptism with the ones we've had for a while *we had an all out war with a bunch of flying beatles at an investigators' house, where we would smack them out of the air, and the kids would collect them and feed them to a lame (as in can't walk) chicken *and then on thursday we woke up at 5:30, walked to the secret bus stop, stood on the buss the whole time, the bus broke, we got on a new bus, we arrive in the capital, we walk to a doctors' office, we wait for a long time, we talk to him, he refers us to another doctor in san cristobal, we go on the metro (insane underground train system), we go to the biggest mall in the DR, we eat some mid tier KFC, then my comp bought a bag of rice for some guy in the mall who was asking for it, and it was super weird, we go on the metro again, we go on another bus to san cristobal, we pay lots of money (sortttt of.. relatively) we go to another doctor, i get a CT scan, we have to wait for an hour and a half for the results, my comp buys a blanket, we get some frozen yogurt, we go back to the doctor, the CT scan comes back completely normal, we go upstairs, we pay even more money, we wait, i take a nap, we mess around on facebook for a few minutes, facebook is the worst, we go back to waiting, we are let in, they check my eyes and dump yellow goop in them, my eyes are fine as well, we wait more for a receipt, we leave and go to lil ceasers (also mid, but way better than the states), my comp also gave some guy a peice of pizza who was asking for money, we pull more money out at the bank (we used it all buying doctor things), we go home in a car, we get back around 6, meaning the whole thing took about 12 hours, and we now know i don't have anything wrong with my brain that would show up on a CT scan, and my eye sight is normal.. sooo stay tuned ig, cuz that's what we're doing that's kinda it tho, love you guys, bye.. mosiah 9:17-18 Yea, in the strength of the Lord did we go forth to battle against the Lamanites; for I and my people did cry mightily to the Lord that he would deliver us out of the hands of our enemies, for we were awakened to a remembrance of the deliverance of our fathers. And God did hear our cries and did answer our prayers; and we did go forth in his might; yea, we did go forth against the Lamanites, and in one day and a night we did slay three thousand and forty-three; we did slay them even until we had driven them out of our land.

vroooom vroom.. *there's an amazon store in my area now.. which means i can go in there and order things from amazon, and it will ship to the store.. it costs a little extra and everything, but my shoes are a bit holy.. so i got some new ones.. we'll see when they actually decide to show up *also on monday, i saw on somebody's story from san cristobal, that there had been some kind of huge explosion.. a ton of people hurt.. killed.. it took out 3 buildings completely.. and damaged a ton of other buildings too.. *so that was super random.. i had lived in cambita before, which is technically part of san cristobal.. it's about 20 min away, but i've been to san cristobal many times before, since i lived over there for 6 months *but anyways, one of the other nights, we were teaching this lady, and going over the plan of salvation, or the plan of heavenly father (it's now called) and we asked her why she thinks we are here on the earth.. and she kinda jokingl...

thank goodness to elder helquist here who could confirm that L was the correct number... *welll.. it's been an interesting week for sure *we've stayed at home about half of the days because of sickness *but for the first time in my mission, it's not me who's sick *my comp has some kind of ameba parasite *i won't go into the details of what that actually means (cuz i have no idea) but the symptoms are pretty weird *but we weren't really sure what was going on for a while, and we had to go to the hospital like 3 or 4 times to get all of the tests and everything done for them to be sure *but he's been doing better for the last couple days, and he got a tonnn of medicine *he has two types of pills.. one he has to take every 12 hours for 7 days.. the other he has to take once every day for the next month *and then the last one is a kind of little liquid stuff that he says doesn't really have much flavor, it's just kinda oily *anyways tho, h...

weeee had transfers.. said goodbye to canada boy, and i have received a new comp.. we got a call on tuesday before transfers, and pres told me i was gonna be training again.. i thought it would be a gringo, cuz usually there are more gringos that come in at this time of year than latinos.. buttt at these transfers there was only one gringo elder that came in.. sooo i got elder Ibargüen.. he's from panama, so he speaks spanish, and he was studying english before the mission so he knows a little.. annnd he was called to speak haitian creole.. which is a littttle awkward not gonna lie, cuz i definitely don't be speaking such language.. cuzzz i wanted to focus on mastering spanish (which i am still far from).. and the other thing, is that there aren't any haitain speaking wards or even branches in our mission.. annnd because of that, there are no sacrament meetings in haitain.. sooo i haven't put any emphasis in teaching in creole, because they n...
