Week 2 Change 5

Hola de nuevo!

Well this week wasnt too bad. We had lots to do still, but I have learned quite a bit so I have gotten to do some stuff. The secret is to know how to find it in one of those 17 binders that I said we have to use and find the procedure. It has step by step actions so that I can do any project at any moment. Although, sometimes its easier for Elder Castillo to do something really fast and then move on, so those things I am a little lost.

One funny thing I realized this week is my "office papí" is "Mark" as well as my regular papí back in Vale! And they are both excel guru´s! They both, for fun, like to learn how to make macros and lots of cool things and they like to do everything in excel, even if its just a list of names they need to type! ;) hehe I love ém both too, they both teach me a lot! Although, I have to say I learned a whole lot more at home with my real daddy! =D hehe

Yesterday was my companions birthday too, so instead of a cake, I tried to make my empty tombs... not quite as good as my cinnamon rolls turned out! haha They had a little too much bread to sugar-y-ness but they wre still good! and we also made fruit smoothies for his birthday! And he got a card from his family, so all was well with him!

One good thing that happened this week, president called me with a computer problem and I totally helped him solve the problem over the phone! That right there is pure awesomeness! I got put on the spot and fixed the problem, so I felt pretty good about myself! haha

As for the investigators, its a little slow right now, but we have been visiting a recent convert named Laura, and she is crazy! but tons of fun! she never got married, so she calls us her children! haha I love it! And she is a really strong convert, thats even better! Right now we are just trying to find anyone that will talk with us, but its a lot different working inside the big city, a little crazy! haha

Also, we had to help with the "consejo" (´zone´ council) yesterday and that was fun! we got to play dodgeball with all the zone leaders! and we helped set up lunch and do a bunch of little jobs! I love working in the office cause there is always a lot to do! thats probably why I love it the most, cause there is a lot to do, and I love that! The one thing thats funny though, is everyone is looking so much into what they need to do for college cause they are going home in the next few months, and im just the young little missionary with lots of time left! haha its definitely different and maybe the first time they put someone in the office as young as me. But I am loving it! haha

that was pretty much my week! conference went really well and was SUPER GREAT! I love how much better conference in when you go this long without watching anything! it makes it bombin! haha Well I love you all and I wish you all a fantastic easter! Chao!
