30 Apr 2014 - Life in the CCM

So the CCM is awesome, the maestros are so much fun, and the food is amazing! I would be sending you some pictures of me but while I was importing them the computer shut down, so I couldn't put any in the email. :( [Apparently something got fixed, because photos were attached!] The language is slowly coming to me and it also helps that I have 2 Latino roommates. My compañero es de Missouri. So that's cool that Rebecca got her degree and all that. K, so I was lazy and didn't change my email, so on the picture that is marked 028, the second and the fourth one from the left are my roommates. Then there is me on P-day in the city, and I also want to say that this is so far the best experience of my life. Well, I would write more but my time is almost up so I'll talk to you next week.

23 Apr 2014 - Well hello from Chile!

I for one keep thinking to myself, "Man, I am in Chile!" and I have to apologize for no grammar corrections. lol I am trying to figure out this Spanish keyboard. But anyways when I landed in Atlanta I had no problem finding my gate and I wasn't there for more than 5 minutes and this herd of men in suits came to the gate and I realized that this group of about 12 guys were all missionaries! So I went and met them and we talked and then got some dinner (I had Panda Express) then we got on the flight and there were 80 unchecked seats! So we got to spread out and we all had our own row pretty much. Then we landed and got our baggage and came to the MTC, but it was kinda funny, me and another elder got dropped off at the temple.... We kinda had a freak out moment for a second until we found an American sister missionary and she told us that the building next to the temple was the MTC..... We both breathed a sigh of relief so we got in and are settled and so yeah, here i am in Santiago, Chile.....(It's still sinking in that I'm in another country... lol)
