9/30/13 - Demon Dogs


9/30/13

yoooo what up what up!!!

hollllly freeeak i feel like i was just here yesterday writing an email home!! times absolutely flies by!! oooo man i hate this keyboard that im typing on....

well i got my last shots for rabies today! :) these little demon dogs dont have anything on me now! oooo man there are dogs everywhere!! i bonked one right on the top of the head with my foot the other day because he almost bit me!!

i got the little devil reeallll good!

people in argentina are always giving me food!!! im like woah woah easy easy.... i dont want to weigh 500 pounds when i go home! haha they´re trying to fatten me up!! 

things get realllll cray out here momma! i mean im making my own food in the mornings! you never thought that would happen did ya.... well i can make all sorts of foods now.... cereal and eggs... thats about it :) 

then for lunch we eat at a members house and they just try to stuff my face with food.... when in doubt you will have seconds even if you say no.... i gotta find a way to tell them not to give me sooooo much food!

its hard because the food is delicious!! i dont think ive gained more than 5 pounds out here so thats good.... tubby tubby

but i still get scared of the food.... they will bring it out and my mind starts to get reallll scervy.... real nervous! then i just say a quick little prayer and try not to think..... then i let her loose and just eat it! and its always good! they have real simple foods here though so thats good for me.
 
well i dont really talk to the people because i cant... haha but whenever there are little kids i spend most of my attention on them..... i think i do that because they dont seem to care that i dont know what the heck they are saying!!

ha i just smile and joke around as much as i can without being able to talk to the little kids... most of the time ill make funny faces with them...and they always freak out when i wiggle my ears! soooo i just smile, wiggle my ears, and laugh and then they seem to like me! 

well this week i was mainly just grateful.... in these letters i talk about not knowing the language a lot.... and to be honest its reallly realllly realllly hard for me... i love talking to people and joking around with them and showing them my true personality... and as of right now i simply cant do it the way id like to. its frustrating that i really cant share all of my thoughts about this gospel and i cant teach the way id like to right now..

yeah thats all frustrating but this week i had to look at what i should be grateful for!!
 
5 weeks ago i didnt really know anything about spanish! hollllly molllly i have learned soooo much in 5 weeks! i can say somethings and understand a little bit of whats going on! ive recieved so much help from the lord at learning this language and i cant deny that.

i realize that the language will come with time i just need to be patient....... sometimes it frustrating because i am not a patient person when i want something! haha but its allllllll goooood....

well we dont have very many people that we are teaching right now which is a downer but we are trying to find people. we gottttta get some investigators and dunk them in that water! 

well ive learned so much in these 5 weeks...... holy cow im i grateful for the life i have!!!! i mean im in another country speaking spanish! haha now thats cray!!! haha im so thankful that i have this opportunity! BECAUSE ITS A MEGA AWESOME OPPORTUNITY!!

i have realized how blessed i am! these people dont have nearly what we have at home! but they are always happy! SO BE HAPPY

WELL thats all i got for this week...... i found some peanut butter out here soooo that made my week! haha theres like a couple of spots in the whole mission where you can find it.... i had another missionaries get it for me! i was licking my last jar off peanut butter clean.... i love me some peanut butter

wellllll love you all.. 

hasta la taco
