HI family!!!!!!
The computer has been down all day today and we finally got it to work!!!! Ok, so there is a bit of confusion. My mail box number is 208 not 189 or whatever.... who knows why. But I think I have received all the letters you have sent me. Up in the top right hand corner are huge red numbers that are the countdown for this time period!! AHHH!! Anyway, so pardon my spelling. OH FAMILY!! HOW I LOVE YOU SO SO MUCH!!! You mean so so so much to me in my life! I have just sent a letter to you and to Hanna today. Hopefully they will arrive soon! DAD, I am sending you a father’s day card in the mail. I want you to know how much I appreciate you and all the sacrifice and love you put into our family. Thank you so much for paying for my mission. There are so many missionaries here who have to pay for their own. What a week, what a week! I have had more blood spill from my body in four days than in like 5 years... my eye, stubbed my toe, and I have had a nosebleed almost every day! Anyway, yes it was a rough first few days but I am doing a lot better now : ) A LOT OF RUSSIAN...it's ridiculous we sit in our class rooms for HOURS and learn Russian. It’s getting more fun though. I have never been so excited to write an email before!!!! SO much to say ! There has been so many times where a person says a scripture and I giggle to myself thinking of our family scripture reading. At the fireside last night, the conductor leader of the music was a combination of Amanda Yancy and some rock and roll star. She was conducting with such passion. A bit over the top. :) The food here is not as bad as I thought. We eat on this one side of the cafeteria which is known as the "Iron Curtain”. I love the zone leaders they are great. Elder Piccalo and Elder Knight. The elders in my discrit are out of control. But I feel it makes me feel like home sometimes. How is my family doing!?! How was Utah!? Thank you for the trail mix! I think I have received the most mail and packages in the entire district!! I feel so special. OH family I LOVE YOU!!!!!! The spirit is so strong here. I am really starting to understand and love my purpose as a missionary. I love this gospel. I love my savior Jesus Christ. I love my heavenly father and know that he answers my prayers. Thank you for being such a wonderful family that I could be sent to from God. I know I was sent to you for a special purpose. You have taught me so much that I have needed here in the MTC.
Dad or chase or Andrew, I need tips on how to study in the most effective way possible...there is so much to learn and a lot of time in the day to do it. But I can’t organize it all.
MY P DAY IS TUEDSAY
Hanna I love you so much....You really would love it here
I LOVE YOU ALL DEARLY!! TILL NEXT TUESDAY!!! DASVIDANIA!!!
