good week. bummed i couldn't be there, but we had a good week over here

them to come to church and read and pray over the book of mormon. we are
going to ask them to be baptized tomorrow or thursday!

tell
the cluffs i said hi and that i miss em! i cant get on the blog for
some reason.. not sure why but ill keep trying and no i didnt get the
package yet, but i should soon. what day did you send it?
well i still love it here, but im also ready to be
in chile. i have felt the spirit so strong in some of our lessons here,
and i cant wait to feel the same in the mission field. we woke up today
at 5 30 to get a washing machine and a dryer. its terrible trying to do
laundry with 1500 other missionaries and trying to share 20 washing
machines.
elder cardon was sick all day yesterday and sunday and was throwing up everywhere. we were all going to check up on him after a meeting and he threw up all over my companion and his own bed. it was freaking hilarious but so gross.
my retainer broke so i have to go tho the dentist tomorrow so they can fix it im not sure how they are gonna charge it but it shouldnt be too expensive. ill let you know what happens. i havent got the package yet but im sure i will soon. i got the package from the olsens and it was all gone by the time i got from the post office to the dorm ha. i emailed em and told em thanks but can you tell them thanks again for me? mosquitoes are literally everywhere. theey provide us with flyswatters the first day we get here so that we can walk around and kil them all in our dorms. they havent bitten me much at all, but they bit elder helston, who is russel m nelsons grandson! crazy!
the food is terrible here. everything is made in bulk and bought ftom the mexican costco so its not good. we have beans and rice and tortillas for every meal, and then we have lots of pollo, beef, lamb, and noodles. tons of chicken and noodles. i finally got used to all the food and i think its because of the pills so thanks for those. ill be sure to send you all the pics i take when i get the package with my gopro battery.
i haven't had to speak yet but i did give a prayer in Santa Cena and i have to say it was pretty good. im basically fluent now.. ha totally joking, but its crazy to be able to feel the gift of tongues working through me. i love it here and i love the spirit here. its a blast. hope you guys have a good week and ill talk to you next week!
