Colombia

I have no clue what to even write. I really wish that I had practiced my typing more at home, I feel like I'm not going to be able to say everything I want to in this email. But I guess I'll try my best.  Colombia is great I like this MTC a lot more. The less people there are the more I have to speak Spanish which I enjoy a lot. It's crazy I can kinda carry on a broken conversation with anyone, but as soon as I'm talking to the investigator it all just clicks. I can totally feel the spirit come in to me and help me teach. The weather here is amazing! High of like 70 if that, and then it rains all the time, but there rain here isn't like the rain at home, it is like a constant mist, so you don't get wet but it keeps you really cooled off! I really like the food so far except breakfast today. We had cereal, but they don't chill their milk so you have warm cereal which i had to choke down. But other than that the food is amazing. It's made a lot of the elders have diarrhea or get constipated, but I've been just fine! I really like my new companion, he was really quiet at first but the last few days we have really started to bond. We've been helping each other learn a lot about the language. I'm glad everyone is doing OK! I hope dad is surviving all of the drama in the house! haha I miss him a lot, there is one elder in my district Elder Tlustex. He is way funny and reminds me of dad, me and him always talk about our favorite movies and they are all the movies I watch with dad. I love you Dad, stay strong, I'll be home soon! I love all of you so much, I start to miss home but then I think about the work that needs to be done and I can feel the spirit strengthen me! It's amazing how that can work! I'm going to try to send some pictures but I don't know how yet. Oh and the way p days work down here are weird. So I have my p day today, then I'll have another one on Tuesday. But my next p day won't come for 10 more days on the next Friday! kinda frustrating! But any emails are better than nothing! Well I love you all so much and pray for you every day!
