Week 8

Hello family,

Its been great hearing from all of you and I am enjoying the pictures.
This is the end of my first full week. It feels pretty awesome to be

honest. It has probably been the most tiring of any week in my life,

but it has been great. This week I had the opportunity to experience a

lot of awesome things. i have also learned a lot of things. First, for

Ryan information there are a ton of stray dogs here. The only things

in the street more than stray dogs is people, cars, and poop from the

stray dogs. Second, people who drive here are in reality very very

crazy. I would send them all to an insane institution but there would

be room for all of them. They don’t fallow lights, street sides, and

don’t care to mush about other cars. To be honest its pretty funny to

watch but terrifying to be in. Third, street Tacos are awesome. They

are delicious and taste like candy. I wish I would have them

everyday… but that would make me sick. Which I have’t been…yet.

As for experience I went to the temple this week for an endowment

session. It was in Spanish so I almost feel asleep. Even worse when we

got to the end with the veil I got and old guy which i could hear and

it was in Spanish! That was fun. Also I had a really weird day this

past Saturday. Me and my companion where going around trying to pick

up our references. However, not one answered there door. We probably

did this for 2 hours. Then this guy randomly came up to use and gave

my companion 50 pesos. We tried to contact him but he said he didn’t

want to hear our mensaje and left on his bike. Another fun experience

happened today when I was playing soccer. I got this perfect pass but

kick the ball to hard and it landed in a house across the street. We

went to the door but the people were not happy with use at all

(because they were really religious and because I almost broke their

window). Entonces, it took use about 15 minutes to get the ball back.

The last interesting thing that happened this week was when Me and my

companion were talking with this one investigator and her grandma came

in and start ranting about the united state. From what I understood

her family went to the united states was deported so they came here to

the Mexico city. She then talked about people trying to get to the

united states by swimming but being deport and about how rich

everybody was up there. To be honest I just nodded my head and hope

she would stop talking. Unfortunately it was probably an hour before

she finished.

Anyway, things are awesome here. i love the food and the people. I

can’t wait until I can fully talk and converse with them.
