Well, this letter will probably be unsavoringly short because this keyboard is really dumb...
We went to the zoo a million and ten years ago! Well, last week. They had a bunch of cool animals that you don´t see at zoos in the states, like wallabies, ocelotes, and other really cool things. They also have things that are really weird to see in a zoo as an American, such as white tail deer, raccoons, and cows.
I did my first divisions last week with Hermana Sol! She went with one member for two hours, and I with another. Divide and conquer. My member, Kati, is going to be a missionary soon, so I made up my mind that in those two hours, I was going to kill her. We had 4 lessons, 3 new investigators, and 62 contacts. Kati thought she was going to die, and Hermana Sol was happy as could be. :) Success!
Puojos....
LICE. Luckily I did not get them, but one of the Hermanas in my house did! She combed out 18, went and bought shampoo for Lice, and they were gone within two days. In the meantime, H. Sol and I wore plastic bags on our heads in the house (really just to mess with the other Hermana).
Well, I restarted Personal Progress haha. I am almost done with the first experience, and I am almost 20 years old. Yay chambonas!
Well, Sunday was my last day of training. I am now done, and cannot believe it. I am no longer a new missionary!
With the end of training, came transfers. I have probably cried about 5 times this week over this fact, but it is said and done now. Hermana Sol is in El Frutal, literally 2 minutes away from me. I received Hermana Flores. (sun...flowers...what´s next?). She is nice, but she is no H. Sol. She is from Peru, and it will take a bit of getting used to, but I know that I will learn to love her eventually. She does not speak one WORD of English. Not. One. Word. And her accent is really hard to understand!
Yeah, I´m here to tell you that the first transfer after training is NOT FUN.
Well, we got to do something really special yesterday. We had a conference with Elder Cook! We all got to shake his hand, and afterwards he talked to us about mission work (well, duh). He said that we have GOT to learn to love our companion, because we have each companion for a reason, to learn something from them.
Well I will be emailing my normal time next week. Hasta luego!
