So
this week was really good! It was my birthday on Monday and we had a
great time- we played basketball with some members and I got a new
camera too- one with a rechargeable battery and a really sick camera
too. SONY Cyber shot 16mpg. So we were shooting with some of the members
and then I played three on three with some other guys there. In
basketball I had only about 20 blocks and could score literally at will!
:) It was fun haha. We went to a suarway thing which is like a FHE. But
it was in a fairly small room and there was a huge table in the middle
with some snacks and drinks. Somehow they had a little over 40 people in
this room! We got there a little late and crammed in and it was sooo
hot though! I almost died. We had subway hamburgers for dinner too!
This week weve had some problems with our water too. Some mornings
it had not been on. So Wednesday and Thursday some of us had to go
showerless which always kinda stinks since we also cant shave or
anything either. Our zone leaders came Wednesday morning. Wednesday
morning I also made oreo milkshakes and they were literally the best
things ever. I don't know if I've ever had anything better haha. I bought
some Rayban sunglasses from some part member investigators that we have
for 3000 AR, yeah so a little over a dollar.
Ooh yes. So Thursday morning Nanova who binds books and things
called and said he had finished with my books. We had asked to get like
zippered covered and the pages colored green. He said he might not have
green so he would do red if he didnt have green. So he gives them to me
thursday morning, and they are just like hard covered bound. The pages
are all colored pink and he put in pink bookmarks too. WOW. It was sorta
lame haha. And to make it even a little more girly is that there is a
girl in our ward that has the same pink pages and bookmarks. ... But
anyway its pretty good. I'll live. We went to clean this new
investigators house on Thursday. It was small but we were still there
for 3 hours! Everything was coated in dirt and there was some nasty
stuff in there. But we managed to survive and it was fun to do as well.
There was a house on the hill blasting music so loud that we could hear
it across town back by our apartment and we were teaching a recent
convert family that live like right next to them and haha I could not
hear anything. We saw a guy sculpting a chicken out of cement too. We
were also teaching a lesson in someones fairly small house and there
were like 15 baby chickens that came in and were chirping so loud. For
like 50 minutes-chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp. Ayaiah. Two 8 year
old kids got baptized on saturday-they have a little pool they fill up
outside to do them in. ALso something else really funny is the english
songs people have here. For some reason just about every youth in our
ward and that I've met have the song Pink-Give Me a Reason and they play
it allll the time. Its insane how much I've heard that song already..
Ooh and Sunday night we walked one of the branch missionaries back
home. It was dark already and so we are talking to her aunt and cousins
and what not since they all live like right next to each other. And you
have to climb up a little dirt hill on a path made from tires and junk
to get there, But they tell us not to walk back by this church- because
apparently someone has been killing people around there at 7 pm. So I
look at my watch and oh- guess what 7 pm. So that was a little creepy to
be walking home knowing.... But a good week, restocking on the
milkshake supplies today.
