HEY FAM BAM!!!!
This
has been a crazy week! Well, like you were saying in your emails last
week, I don't even think crazy weeks exist anymore because every week is
about the same on the level of craziness! haha
This week I did divisions with the sisters in Graneros and it was
super fun! A grand adventure! Their sector is pretty campo
[out in the country] and really
LOOONG, SO... we went... wait for it... ON BIKES!!!!! First time in my
mission where I got to ride a bike in the sector! And first time in my
life that I rode a bike with a skirt on! ...and first time in my life that I
rode a bike when it is raining cats and dogs!!! hahaha and did you know
that when you bike in the rain you get WAY, WAY wetter than if you were
just on foot carrying an umbrella around??? hahaha Hna Villareal and I
got back to the house soaked all the way through, but even so, we had a
great day! and we just laughed about it. The thing was that despite the
rain, it was like a dream day for a missionary, because every house we
went to let us in!!! and a bunch of them were just contacts (future
investigators) that the sisters had made and set appointments to go back
(NORMALLY like 80% of those appointments fall through). It was sweet! I
also always love being able to go to other sectors to see and also be
with the other sisters to get to know them better and love them even
more! They are ALL super awesome!
So that was Wednesday-Thursday. Thursday afternoon my comp had
an appointment in the clinic to get an allergy test where they prick
your arm with a bunch of different stuff like pollen, dust, etc to see
what you are allergic too, the results: ... nothing! and the lame thing
is that we are 80% sure it's food that is causing it, but they only do
the food test in Santiago... BUT luckily she hasnt had any allergy
episodes lately so we are hoping we wont have to worry about it
anymore....
Friday: Chile played in the world cup so we had to go home
early, at 6pm (the time Chile started their game) because Chileans LOVE
their football and they get pretty dang wriled up, not to mention que
son muy buenos para al alcohol (generalmente)
[that they're big on alcohol (generally)], so for our safety all
the missionaries had to retire early to do our weekly planning. It was
funny though because without watching the game we knew that Chile had won and exactly how many goals they had scored, because every time Chile
scored a goal the WHOLE neighborhood errupted in shouts and cheers and
everything, then when the game ended they all went out in their cars
screaming and cheering and honking their horns driving like 3 times
around the neighborhood screaming and honking before going to some place to celebrate.
This week we had some really awesome spiritual experiences! I
just LOVE being a missionary, and having the PRIVILEDGE to share the
restored gospel and the TRUTH everyday, and to be the Lord's mouthpiece
and hands here in Villa el Sol, with my compi.
BTW we're not changing! We get to stay together another cambio
and I get to finish Hna Arellano's training! We are SUPER happy about
it!!!!
This cambio is going to be AMAZING!!!
Love you fam bam! Hope you had a great father's day daddy. Take good care! make good choices ;)
