Week #4: It's a dare...

Week #4: June 21, 2016

Hola!
This week has been another good one!

For the highlights:
We got to host all the new missionaries that got into the MTC on Wednesday and we get to do it again tomorrow. We basically just take them around and get all their books and help them find their residence and classroom. It was really fun and the sister that I hosted was really cute and is going to the Kirtland Ohio visitor’s center for her mission. 

We were supposed to get 2 new Hermanas in our room but one got engaged right before she was supposed to come to the MTC so she didn't show up and the other one was just put into another companionship. We would have loved having them in our room but it's kinda nice that we all have 2 closets, haha.

On Friday nights we always have pizza and it's literally the only good food that they serve at this place. They are setting up a stage in the cafeteria for some fireside for all the mission presidents and general authorities so only have of the cafeteria is being used and the wrap/salad bar is all torn down. It's always packed and there's only one option to eat instead of 2 or 3 that they used to do. Anyways, after dinner was CICLO (study time) and the first thing that Hermana M said in the prayer to start CICLO was "estamos agradecemos por nuestra pizza" and everyone just started laughing hysterically. It was really funny.

Also, everyone here thinks its insane that I haven't had soda in like 5 years so they've made it their goal to get me to drink soda...I didn't want to but when an elder in my district said that he would shave his legs if I drank a glass of soda...I couldn't resist! So this morning, we were having our weekly volleyball tournament and all of a sudden, Hermana M screams (which isn't unusual) and starts freaking out cause Elder M shaved his legs last night! Looks like I will be having soda with my dinner tonight...

Shave legs VS Drink Soda
Playing volleyball with Hermana M is literally like the funniest thing ever because she screams EVERY TIME she hits or is even near the ball. It's the best. Elder R is literally the only good one and he leaves for San Antonio tomorrow (he's too good at spanish and his mission president wants him to come early) so our games are going to be funny just cause we are all so bad. 

As for our lessons:
We are still teaching Pablo 2.0 and that seems to be going really well. He dropped all the other companionship's because he didn't feel like they listened to him and his problems but we are still going strong for now.
On Wednesday we get to Skype with people all around the world and teach them lessons in Spanish, which will be cool! I'm excited for that!

I'm out of time, but the MTC has been great and I'm learning more and more each day! I wish I could've been home for father’s day but I sent a letter home to dad so hopefully you get that soon. 

The stuff that you sent me is great! Thank you! I LOVED watching those videos and seeing the pictures that you sent! Sounds like you all are having a great time in Utah! 
Love and miss you all!
