Mommoo!!!
Well, things are going here. Last week you know how I said the computer was messed up?... Well, it messed up all of my usb and ipod and everything. So I lost like all of my fotos from September and all of my music I put on my ipod before I left for the mission. I lost Nearer my God to Thee by BYU Vocal Point which I have in my Google Play (Google account), all of my Marshall McDonald, Paul Cardall, Marshall McDonald with Steven Sharp Nielson, Lex de Azevedo, Dallyn Val Bayles, and so forth. So I was a little bummed... So in the coming weeks, if it isn´t too hard of a hastle... could you maybe send me those songs again por favor? :) If you send them in a zip file like the 4Ordained songs I think that will work great. When you sent them like that I could just download it as one big file (or a few big files). So when you have time that would be so super de duper awesome and nice. :D Maybe Bryce can help you with that. :) Now there are a few things I need to write before I forget, then I will answer your questions.
1 - Songs: Mary Did You Know? by Pentatonix (highest priority to least) ;) then Veni Veni by Piano Guys, then maybe you can ask Rachel Scott or someone for the songs from the Ogden Temple Celebration. That´s all for music right now. And other Christmas music you would like to send. :)
Actually that´s all I have to ask right now... so! Now to the next part! Your questions:
1. What is your ordinary day like?
1 - My ordinary day is like this: We wake up at either 6 or just before 6:30, exercise, study personally for an hour from 8 to 9, companionship study from 9 to 10, Additional study (first twelve weeks program) from 10 to 11, Language study from 11 to 12, then we leave the house and normally visit and teach 1 or 2 short lessons, we eat lunch at a restaurant at 1 everyday that we pay for at the beginning of the month, then from 2 to about 9 (depending on if we have time to visit someone else sometimes it´s like 8:45 or so) we visit and preach the gospel, then from 9 to 9:30 we plan for the next day, then from 9:30 to 10 ish we finish any other things like the area book and other forms, then we brush our teeth and get ready for bed and are in bed by 10:30.
2. What is your area like? Green? Suburbs? City?
2 - Well my area is like a bunch of concrete buildings of all shapes and forms everywhere with concrete and dirt roads going whichever direction. See if you can look at it in Google Maps. The city is called Sabana Larga.
3. Who can we pray for and fast for?
3 - Well, as missionaries, we can´t ask family or friends to do special fasts for people. But you can keep praying for and fasting for me and for this people according to your will. But as a missionary I can´t really ask. Thank you so much for your prayers and everything. I really feel them.
4. What is your favorite thing you have eaten?
4 - Well, I don´t know what is my favorite thing, but I really liike platanos fritos, when they are cooked right. Oh and we also had some chinese food a couple weeks ago and it was pretty good. Friday we had Subway again which was amazing! We had it because we had to take Elder Brunis to the doctor after interviews Friday in Barranquilla. The Juices are amazing though! They have a weird one though that is from a tomatoe from a tree. I don´t like it. it tastes like tomatoe. Even though Elder Brunis tells me it is different.
5. What is the worst thing you have eaten?
5 - Well, proabbly tomatoes haha. I haven´t really had anything terrible. Well, there is one thing that I didn´t eat that proabably would have been the worst thing. We can´t eat it in the mission, and it was in a soup we had. it is basically just skin of some animal. in squares like chicharron and soggy and gooey and everything nasty like.
6. Did you get your package?
6 - YESSSSS!!!!!!! :D :D :D (This means - big smily face) I got it Saturday!!! It arrived in the offices this last week and the zone leaders called Wednesday night to tell us. I didn´t get it Friday because the Zone Leaders took it to their house, then we had zone meeting Saturday so I got it then. And thank you so much for everything!!!! The pictures are awesome!!!! Oh, also I was hoping that you could send me refills for my Zebra pen. and maybe some more Zebra pens in my next package. Oh and for my next package I don´t need a shoe dryer. I think I will be ok. But about the sketch book, if you would like to send me a medium sketch book liike the one I was using before the mission that would be awesome! I don´t really have time to draw while out of the house so I think a small one won´t be needed. and with the little one I have it is hard to draw because it is tiny. so if you could send a medium one or medium big one or something that would be awesome!
7. Did you ask your mission president about his sons possibly serving in New Jersey and Melbourne Australia with Pops and Uncle Wil?
7 - Yes I did and he doesn´t know if he knows. He and sister Searle told me to ask for their first names. So if you know I can tell them to see if they know.
8. What do you eat for breakfast?
8 - mostly Frosted Flakes and Coco Pebbles :D it´s awesome! :D haha
9. How do you do your laundry?
9 - a sister here in the branch does them. but I dno´t like it too much because she doesn´t use bleach with the whites and it is expensive to have her do them. but we don´t know where else we can do it unless we do it ourselves.
10. Do you cook anything, or do you eat with someone (ward members/investigators) everyday?
10 - we only cook when we have pancakes for breakfast. We have a contract for lunch (restaurant) and for dinner at Hno Robertos house.
That´s all! :D
