9 December 2013

Okay.... so my feet have blisters on them haha It hurts to walk but thats not stopping me. Im just happy to be here! My feet actually dont hurt that bad anymore. Brazil is cool. Instead of having us over for dinner, members invite us over for lunch... they treat lunch like Americans treat dinner... its cool.. and its really good food! We clap at peoples doors instead of knocking. I sweat non stop. People LOVE the fact that I can't speak Portuguese haha  its really funny I can't really explain why cause I can't understand them yet. Since my comp doesnt speak english I usually dont have a clue where we are going until we are there. 


we live with another set of elders who are both Americans... when they are speaking English and I try to join them in conversation he gets upset and says.. "no... in Portuguese.." so haha I haven't spoken English in a few days. I TOOK A SHOWER WITH A BUCKET ...well actually since Ive been here I've taken several showers with a bucket.... we thought the water didnt work for 3 days... but when I was trying to figure out how to work the shower I accidently turned off the water for the whole apartment... the only place we had water were the sinks in the apartment... so yeah... my bad. There are a lot of stray dogs here. We should have had a baptism yesterday but something went wrong.. I dont know... but we will have some this week for sure.



How is everyone? I hear that rexburg is super cold this week .....HAHA!  Im down here swetting and your all cold Hahahahahahah. okay sorry that was probably annoying okay I love you all
