“This week has pretty much been like the slowest week of my
life!! I got a new companion and he is a gringo so now we are a trio! It is
like unheard of to have two gringos together but I guess I just got lucky!! is
name is elder burges and he drives me nuts!! Hahaha he is like the most hard-core
anime nerd I have ever met! Ha has a lot of time in the mission and thinks he
knows everything!!! I have almost punched him like 20 times!! Hahaha he told me
that I needed to be more humble and I blew up!! Because I am like more humble
right now than I have ever been because I always have to rely on them for
everything because half the time I don’t understand them so I just have to go
with it and you know how much I suck at following!! Hahaha but yeah I don’t
like him. haha oh well I guess I will get over it!! hahaha this week has been
super boring and we have had like no luck!! I try soooo hard to work hard but
my companions are lazy!! Hahaha I think that’s why I have gotten into working
out because it’s the only thing that I can control hahaha I guess I am pretty controlling!
So yeah my Spanish still sucks but it is a lot better. I get pretty frustrated with
myself because of my Spanish mostly when I am reading. I am getting better with
that!! hahaha I have not really changed at all!! This week has gone super
slow!! hahaha hopefully the next will speed up!!
love,
Christian”

“This week was all right! hahaha We didn’t really have
anything super cool happen! The coolest thing that happened is that we had a talent
show in our ward! haha It was supposed to be for the members to invite people
who are not members, but it was only members and then some of our
investigators!! hahahaha but I sang a solo for the show! hahaha It was a song
about gringos and Peru!! hahaha it was pretty funny and everyone was dying
laughing!! hahaha so we are teaching two families right now! Family Garbosa are
the people who sell fruit and they are pretty cool but we still have to get
them married and they haven’t come to church yet so we have to get them to go!
hahaa but when we got to his house one day he was asleep on his front porch
with his book of Mormon!! I took a picture because I though it was funny that an
investigator fell sleep with his book of Mormon!! Haha and yeah we still have a
lot of work with them! hahah and then were teaching Family Labajos who are
police! they are super cool!! and he likes to show off his guns! they hahahaha
and yeah they haven’t come to church either!! hahahaa oh well! My companion
drives me freaking crazy right now I don’t even like talking to him!! ha-ha but
oh well I know that’s just part of it!! I’m so freaking sick right now! I have
a gnarly sore throat and my whole body hurts!! I am such a baby about being
sick!! I’m not sure if I told you this but we have got like a whole family of
cockroaches in our house!! hahaha like a really big family with cousins and
grandparents and every one of there friends!! they are soooo gross and I go
hunting sometimes at night!!! hahah I have killed a lot of them but they just
keep coming they like never end!! and mice to!! and I think I saw a rat but I’m
not sure it could have just been a big mouse! haha hahaha sanitation here
sucks! oh yeah and our shower broke so it is all cold water which I guess is
not so bad because I cant get shocked anymore and it also makes we want to work
our harder in the morning so I am warm and it feels good to get in the shower!
Love, Christian”
