Hey Family!
This last week was really good. This wednesday makes it a whole month since i've been here! only 23 more! I gotta get to work dangit....
Anyway, we have two teachers, and the AM teacher is this RM who really honestly has taught us like 5 times since we've been here. He is not like....invested enough I think? I don't know. but he goes on vacation like every week because he just got done with the summer or spring semester at BYU. But my other teacher, Hno. Hernandez is SICK. I love this guy. He's from the Yucatan peninsula and so we're learning mexican spanish which is totally more masculine than argentine. But none of them are as ....gay as spain spanish... even the teachers say this. so I don't feel bad. But anyway he wanted to talk with me because I am the DL for the next couple weeks and he pulled me outside one night and asked me "I know how are the elders in our district. but how are you elder daybull?" and we talked for about 20 minutes and he just gave some good advice. I would be so lucky to have someone like him as a companion. I'm fine by the way. I'm actually great. The language is coming along really fast now and I have officially learned more in these 4 weeks than in all of HS. but then again I don't really remember studying a whole lot for that... But anyways. I decided to do the Jeff thing and only speak spanish from now on. Its cool i'm already forgetting some common english words haha.... Speaking of Jeff, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! Mallory, I love you! Thanks for blessing me with another niece! I cannot wait to meet her! Madilyn is a very pretty name. Send me pictures yea???
I got a letter from brother kendall today that was just really nice to hear from him. The gym is closed for like two weeks and so me and elders ashby and schroeder are playing extreme bochi ball (sp?) where after each round the losers do some crazy exercise. so really we're the winners right? anyway... I haven't really gained weight here, but its just hard to eat healthy. I eat like 9 bananas a day... we have a district record (which i hold) for eating a banana the fastest.... 11 seconds. whatev... NBD.
I'm the DL now which i think i already mentioned, but its really nice to get to serve in that assignment because i'm getting to know all the other elders really well and they are awesome. Im sending some more pictures this week. But I am just really thankful for the spirit here. its the balm of Gilead.
Its been really nice to see all my roommates here. i see Elder Kleinhenz everyday and thats awesome. Elder Hyatt and Harrison i see less often, but nevertheless, its always awesome to see them. I sure love all of you and I will be prayin for you.
Love Elder Daybell.
