So there goes another week. It really is just crazy how fast everything is moving here! The first day all I could say was "Hola" and now I can pray in Spanish and understand quite a bit of it! The natives speak very fast but I'm getting better at understanding them and knowing what to say back to them! Haha I'm loving the challenge of learning the language and adjusting to the needs of our "investagators" (sorry if my spelling is bad Spanish is killing my English).
OK to answer some questions that Mama had, the elders in my room are all going to Madrid except for Elder Roberts, he' going to Barcelona and he is going to be a stud missionary. We've started to get up a little early and excercise. Elder Roberts, Elder Cross and I. I'm getting fat soo I really need it! Elder Edwards, Elder Lower and Elder Johnson are all going to Barcelona and Elder Carter is going to Malaga. So a lot of people are going to the Barcelona mission.
Haha and yeah small world Elder Edward is related to the Clark's! I freaking love that kid! He and I get along super well and we love all of the same movies so we just quote "What About Bob" together and then we both end up laughing like crazy! We want to room together at BYU or where ever we go when we get back! He just told me that you and his mom are friends on Facebook now Mama! Great stay connected to her I'd love to look him up after the mission!
Mama there are too many funny stories so I'll tell one that Jason would appreciate! So like the first few weeks we started a prank war and it was never personal just funny things like going into somebody's room and making a fort out of mattresses and leaving it there for them to clean up and stuff like that! We've been very creative in our pranks! A few weeks ago we took the mattresses out of one room and put them on top of the stalls in the bathroom and took their ladder from their bunk beds and put in on the stall as well so it looked like a bunk bed made out of the stalls in the bathroom!
So I'm catching myself becoming more and more Eurotrash the more I'm here! I bought myself a man purse and yes... It looks fantastic. Oh so fun story today. Today in the temple we were having a regular session then halfway through the witness lady passed out and we were all kind of like what is going on. It was really random they stopped the session then her husband caught her and gently layed her down on the ground. Luckily Sis. Sullivan, Elder Sullivan's wife (the guy who leads the music) is a Nurse so she stepped up and took great care of that lady!
What the heck is going on with the nation? I've heard something about the government being all weird or something like that. You don't hear much when you're thousands of miles away. Speaking of Eurotrash... sorry for getting off topic but we're going to the Prado today and I am sooooooooooo stoked! So some Italians came into the CCM today and they are exactly what I'd imagine them to be like! One of them is very strong and looks like a buff Christiano Ronaldo. Hahaha and what makes it better is that his name is Elder Puff (Poof) so we just call him strong man and it fits.
Ok brothers first off HAPPY BIRTHDAY J-A-S-O-N! Ha you're older. I'll be sure to grab something for you next time we go out but I probs won't be able to send it very soon! I'll let you know! Oh and Michael one of my buddies here's name is Elder Cross. His sister is serving in England and she's teaching some famous rugby player. His name's Toa Kohe Love or something like that so let me know who that is and write me while you're at it! Momma my package came this morning and I'm about to go open it soo thank you!!!!
Ok well I love ya and I'm excited to hear back from you my last P-Day here!
Love you MAMMA!
Love,
Elder Hawks 2
