Hello.. wow i seriously died on these emails.. oh well... *we've had some super fire lessons this week *our phone continues to become more broken pretty much daily *we've watched a lot of chicken fights (not on purpose, they're super uncomfortable, buttt usually there are just kids who think they're funny, and make them fight each other) *same thing with beta fishes *we've watched a puppy go from recently dead to almost completely a skeleton in about a week (it's just on the side walk, and no one has moved it) *we found a couple more part member families, so we're working with them now *we played uno with this random lady who kept introducing her random wack house rules as we were playing, so in the end my comp and i just teamed up to finish the game *we took some gatorade and soup to one of our friends, cuz she's "allergic to the sun" so she's been sick (cuz we made her come to church, and you have to go outside to do that)... and i've heard that's a real thing, buttt she nEver goes outside, so we're trying to help her with that *we've been eating sUper badly lately (yesterday i had icecream for lunch) *the other elders keep sAyinG they're seeing rats, but i haven't seen one yet, so idk if they're messing with me or not *we had one day where the other elders left to do something at the church, and me and my comp were left at home (we found out how dangerous thAt is... there was a lot of burning of things, and throwing flaming matches, and that sort of thing) *we had exchanges with the zone leaders, and our zone leader that was here made us run like a mile first thing in the morning (i almost died from having consumed no sort of food or water, buttt i won the race sooo)... yah completely not worth it, cuz i spent the next half an hour or so trying not to throw up *the other elders had a baptism this week which was cool *that was followed up by an "activity" at the church *we were playing basketball, and macdonald dunked.. it went in and everything.. it was super cool.. however, the hoop is a littttle less functional now butttt.. love you guys... alma 34:17 Therefore may God grant unto you, my brethren, that ye may begin to exercise your faith unto repentance, that ye begin to call upon his holy name, that he would have mercy upon you.

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...
