So last Monday we did some nice errands really fast. Got a few other Nba hats. Unfortunately its hard to find ice cream in this city and when I went to buy some ice cream to make milkshakes they were out. I tried drawing a map of the US from scratch and it turned out not tooo terrible. We had splits on Tuesday. I had to lead in my area with the district leader. Of course a lot our times fell through so I had to come up with things to do and other people to visit which is hard since a lot of things are really far away from each other in my area. So my companion was doing baptism interviews for the other branch and they were all taking like at least an hour and a half so I had a lot of time to wait for him. And this other elder in my house made some crosswords using quotes from movies as clues. He did a MIB (Men in Black) one for me and I aced through it sooooo fast. Then that got me on the mind so I went through and wrote down 13 pages of MIB quotes from the movie and you can follow the whole movie from the quotes. Probably  not the best thing to do but I got way bored sitting there for around 6 hours waiting for him to finish right after our 4 hours of study in the morning. Set a lot of baptism dates with our investigators this week which is awesome. Some of them are progressing really well. So I'm working on making a mini Malagasy hymnbook. I had a guy shrink all the pages for me and I gave it to the guy in the other branch to bind for me. No I'm not getting the pages colored this time though. Our YSA had a fundraiser selling croissants so I bought a bunch. Pretty good. Our DMB also sang the Malagasy anthem for us. We had some dogs try and attack us this week. I was just about to kick one in the face but a Malagasy woman started beating it with a broom instead. Yeah saw a mouse. Outside though. Okay it's so hard to remember all the crazy things that happened during the week. But until next week.
