This week was another fast one. I really cant remeber what happened. Monday I had zone conference, tuesday I had P-Day and Thursday we had exchanges. It was actaully fun. Normally i dont like exchanges because I hate planning them but I did them with Hermana Villagomez. If you remember we lived together in my first area ( Metan ) at the start of my mission so it was actually fun to be able to understand her and communicate with her. We had a fun time together!! We ate lots of ice cream because it literally hit over 42 degrees almost every day and for you americans thats like over 107 degrees but Friday oh man it rained and there was a huge thunder and lightning strom but rain, snow, thunder, lightning, heat we are in the streets even though the streets were literally rivers and up to our calves its the lords work and needs to be done. ( que grandiso es nuestro llamamiento) Story: we went to one of our favorite members for lunch and ok it was so funny because she talks so much that she ...

So Tuesday was Carnaval and here is a fun look at what my tuesday looked like. During carnaval the people here like to "bless" their cars with alcohol, flour and confetti and the teenages will drive around and literally throw water ballons, beer and flour on people just walking and minding their own bussiness. We managed to not get hit almost all day but later in the afternoon we sat down to update our lessons and we hear a truck aproaching full of teenage Boys and wow it happened in slow motion one yells " buenas tardes" and we get pelted with water balloon after water ballon we got soaked like soaked our bags, hair and clothes absolutely drenched. We just looked at each other and started laughing so hard. It was kind of miserable the rest of the day but a fun memory. We almost got hit with flour but we looked at them and pointed to our tags it worked and they left us alone. We avoided busy streets for the rest of the night.  Valentines day!!! Once again single.jaj...

Hows it going everyone!!  Wow what a great week i am absoulty loving the mission and having the best time here in Perico!!  On Tuesday me and hermana Lopez had a fun time embarrassing ourselves while trying to help fold empanadas with the martinez family. Wow what a flop all our empanadas looked so sad and pathetic while everyone elses looked professional done but hey Im not Argentinen and dont have empanada folding skills in my blood.  Well i am in another trio and lets say it was a shock and at first I was a little mad but oh well. Turned out to be fun her name is Hermana Souza and shes from Brazil. I dont know whats with president Janzen but this is my third brasilian companion and theres only 6 hermanas from there so... But we have almost the same time in the mission but I have 1 month more :) We ended up agreeing to invite everyone we taught who wasnt a member to be baptized. It worked and we put two people on date for baptism and wow it was awesome!!  We have t...

And finally they are spliting our area instead of working three areas I will only be working two jajjaa but other hermanas are coming to work Monterrico. So no more expensive taxi rides for me jajaja.  Sick again:  On Thursday I returned home not feeling to good and ended up throwing up ( not fun ) I went to bed and ended up throwing up more but in the morning I felt better. I swear I have been sick more times on my mission than in my entire life.  We in a stumbling block with no one to teach but I am about to work my butt off to find new people this week!!! It should work because thats whats we fasted for this week and literally wow it was hard it was over 40 degrees celcius and lets just say that not drinking water for 24 hours literally kills a ...
