 I am so ready to leave this place haha. I think my spanish peaked here probably the second week which is awesome but sad at the same time. Of course I learned more Spanish here but my speaking abilities are super low and everytime I ask a question they tell me I will learn it on a mission haha. Mtc is still going good though no doubts. I received an email with my travel plans a couple days ago, we have a layover in vegas then we go to Cali. This week was much of the same old stuff, I got sick this week and missed a morning class but I am already feeling much better. It is just congestion for sure. Me and my district are probably going to go to the temple today again and then after that, I don't think we have anything for the rest of the pday which will be really nice. My days are starting to become more packed and busy as I continue on.  A sister in my district got tested for covid and she is now quarintened. I am not familiar with what happens if she tests positive. I leave ...

  Hola hola!! That's the extent of my spanish vocab as of right now haha.   Jk, I'm practically fluent in spanish. I think I'm gonna change my middle name to Juan or Pablo.  Anyways, This week was absolutely awesome, it was a lot of the same old stuff so not much to say. Its all good though because the Mtc is sweet and it's 10x better than at home. I cannot wait to go out in the field and serve the people of Cali.  District went to the temple again and that was cool. Gotta play some volleyball this week and some bball even though I sucked it was fun. My district is so sweet though. Everyone is hilarious and there is this one kid who is 6'5 and plays the saxophone who is hilarious. He says the most random things make us all laugh. On Tuesday this week for our Mtc devotional, Elder Gong from the Quorum of the 12 showed up!!! He gave a great talk and shook every single missionary's hand. I got a picture with him too ahha. I don't know if it was aloud but ...

  Hola!! Buenos tardes everyone?? I am officially at the Provo Mtc!! It is so great here haha, so much better than learning at home. The spirit here is amazing and I seriously learn so much it is amazing. I have learned so much Spanish that I feel like if I could speak the knowledge in my brain then I would be fluet haha. My companion is baller and he is super funny. This past week we have been laughing so hard and getting along so well it is awesome. The food here goes right through you. It is Absolutely terrible. I heard great things about it before I came here but seriously it goes straight through. Not bad tasting though haha.   Wednesday I got to the Mtc and  met mi Companero!! He is a legend, and so is my district. We had welcome firesides and being here is seriously like a constant companionship with the holy ghost and it is exhausting. My brain hurts all the time and my Spanish learning is going through the roof. The gift of tongues is real no doubt. Wednesday was...

  Buenos Días!!? What a great week to write about! Today is Tuesday so you might be wondering why I'm emailing today, but never fear. They moved my pday to today because I am going to the Provo MTC TOMORROW!!! Wow, time flies! At the beginning of this home mtc, I thought I wasn't gonna make it through haha because the days never seemed to end. I wake up now everyday and say... Today is "tuesday"??? I say the wrong day half the time anyways too ahha. Home mtc is always super different. People still have their old phones and email whenever they want and they go do like anything aha. every experience is different but I'm the only person without my original phone aha but it is such a good experience and really teaches me obedience.     This week was pretty freaking awesome. SO SO much spirit and SO much fun with my family. I got to go to the temple with my grandparents and my mom. First vicarious temple endowment! Not only that but when I walked into the changi...

  Subject:   AT HOME MTC WEEK #1   Hey everyone!! Hopefully I got everyone that wanted too. if by chance you see someone that wants to be on here but isn't then let me know and i can add them. This past week and a half have been pretty good! I didnt email last week because it was my 3rd day in the mtc and it was my pday haha. Also, according to the calendar they gave me, my pday in the actual mtc will be saturday! so, I will send my next email out, not this but  next Saturday  at least I think. I go to the actual mtc a week from today!! i'm pretty excited to go to the mtc because this at home mtc is super super interesting haha. I can pretty much do whatever I want as long as I'm with one of my family members or something. i have a 5 hour break in between my classes every day and i don't know what to do haha. if anyone has any ideas send me a separate email because i would love to know haha. If anyone has someone close to them going to the at home mtc and has qu...
