This week has been a crazy simple week, nothing really exciting happened, but I hope you liked my letter from last week jajaja. I have been trying to be super positive lately because the work has been tough. As I have done so, I've realized that I have been worried about a lot of things that really don't matter and I have had my eyes opened to the miracles that are all around me. Even though I sleep sometimes, well a lot in church jajajaja I am my fathers son. jajaja.
This last week, a less active family came for the second time and they brought their deaf child. They are a super cool family. Another family, that I have never taught but have ran into a few times that had been baptized about a year ago came too. This was also super cool. We didn't even see them this week. I know God's giving it all He's got...we really are just super lucky to have the gospel!
I love you lots. I've been thinking a lot really about something really really important... what I want to eat when I get back and I decided that I want waffles with bacon aaaaaannd strawberries, fresh strawberries. Yep and with whipping cream and orange juice, real florida orange juice...none of the tampico crap. I want this to be the first meal home with my family. Anything else I want, I will just have to come back to Peru for. jajaja. It took a lot of thought but then I realized that we can't eat pig or strawberries and waffles don't exist here soooooo done deal.
jajaja
On a more serious level, I would like you to know how my area is. The dirt here makes a nice layer of talc and everyone works in the fish. That's one of the hardest things about this part of the world, in the pota (giant squid) they are gone 10 days in the merluza no idea what that is but it tastes really good. 15 to 20 days and perico that's 30 days. Which really bites, because the people don't have time off. The rest work in the factories, and that's even worse. They usually work a week of graves and then a week of days. They only stop work for Sunday, but that is when they do all there shopping and washing and etc.
This week we haven't had water in our room.... bugs the crap out of my comp, but I'm chill. I figure at least, I don't have to poop in a hole like everyone that we visit soooooo I figure we are better off. Not that pooping in a whole bothers me much jajaja, but I guess a white shirt is really telling jajajajajaja. BTW in Peru, they don't buy building lots, they just build and hope that they don't get kicked out.
My comp is crazy awesome, a tad trunky but I'm alright with that. He was a dj before his mish and he loves all music especially electronic, so he sings all the time. I just ignore that but also we have had some very deep disney conversations and sing ins jajaja. We've been changing the lyrics to the songs, he usually makes fun of me for being trunky hahaha but all is good.
I WENT TO THE BEACH
ELder preece
May the force be with you.
