10/07/13 -- sadddddd day

10/07/13
what is going on!!! man have these past weeks just flown by!!!

well i have some absolutely terrible news!!! 

sooooo i experienced my first transfer in the mission..... LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING... TRANSFERS SUCCKKKKKKKKKK!! 

My comp got transferred into another zone to be the zone leader :( i was pretty devastated when the president called me and told me that... i wanted to crawl up into a little ball and cry like a baby... i wish lenny was here to make me feel better! haha seriously it blows!! 

ha i was just starting to somewhat know my companion! hes 23 and is a convert of 5 years! we couldnt communicate all that well but o man did we have fun! mainly our jokes were in sound effects mixed in with my garbage spanish and his garbage english! oooo man he was megga megga awesome.

ummmmmm lets see my im in the same area and i my new companion is american...

but the funny thing is that i can communicate better with my brazilian companion than i can with me american comp :)

ha my new comp has 19 months on his mission and refuses to speak english to anybody...... he hasnt said an english word to me yet.... haha so this will be interesting :) but heyyyy my spanish will be better righht???

well i have learned a whole lot in the past 6 weeks and continue to learn... one of the biggest things ive learned is not being able to fully control the situation... if any of you really know me you know that i love to grab that biggggg ol bull by the horns and control it :) haha i like to know whats going on and control it at the same time....

well the mission has slapped me right in the tush with being able to control the situation! haha oooooo man have i learned to be just a little bit more patient and try not to control everything!

haha the only thing i can control is my attitude, effort, and what is said on my face! 

well conference wasssss soooooo sweeeeeet! before my mission i would be as tired as an old goat during conference and sleep through some of the talks because i just thought they were boring and then listen to what i considered to be the important speakers...

not the case on my mission!! i was busy as a bee just jottttting down notes during every single talk... o man i was soaking every single bit of it up! i thought before conference that i wuld have to listen to it in spanish and i was not happy about that.... turns out they had a good ol english room calling my name with 2 others american elders :) the lord knew thats what i needed!

oooo conference was sooooo dope!! i received some mad revelation and o sooooo sweet spiritual feelings! ha i loved it! 

i forgot my journal of notes from conference but i liked the story that president monson said about the blind and deaf man being thankful...i remember this quote...

´´thank you, heavenly father has been so good to me´´

at times we may be facing hardship but we need to always be grateful for the things that we do have and take notice how good our heavenly father is to us! thats my two cents... wish i could remember more on the spot!

i tried a fruit off the tree the other day!! it was delish! you never thought that would happen did ya?? ya well im making baby steps out here with the food! mega sweet. 

i saw somebody riding a kawasaki ninja bullet bike the other day... i was soooo tempted to karate kick him off that bike and take it for a spin!! o man do i miss riding my motorcycle!! 

im starting to be able to be myself a little bit more! which i need! haha i told this girl that we were going to have an acado (bbq) with her cat.... she didnt like that very much but everybody else thought it was funny! ha oooo i cant wait for the day when i can joke around with this people!

well im happy! its hard but its awesome! i loved conference and am soo thankful that i was able to listen to it and hear what my heavenly father had to say through his leaders of the church..... and to hear it in english!! haha i try and laugh and smile all the time! i try to play with this kids as much as i can! 

hope and pray i can explain to my new companion what our area is like because i have no clue what its like! ive been in a daze of confusion for the past 6 weeks! haha will be fun!!

love you all...... dont get fat at home.... i know im trying not to!

love love meow meow
