Holy cow or Santo Vaca!!!
The first week took too long. We were told that the first week will feel like an eternity....well it did.
My companion is Hermana Larsen. She's freaking amazing. National Ballroom Dancer. We get along super well. Maybe too well ;).
Anyway the first night we got here we had a devotional. And I tried so hard to not fall asleep. My head kept going back and forth. So annoying.
So Wednesday was the first real day. It felt so tiring. We had like 7 hours of Spanish class. It went all day. But my Spanish is already improving, working on my accent though. 😁
Thursday was long just like Wednesday. Basically the same day as before.
So on Wednesday we had a gym orientation and we were suppose to have Gym time. Nope, the dude talked the whole entire time. I was a little ticked off. And apparently that's how every first gym orientation goes. We got dressed down for nothing.
Saturday felt like it was never going to end, which sucked because we were completely exhausted.
Sunday I bore my testimony in Spanish, while looking at a paper haha.
Sunday was super laidback compared to all the other days.
My district is amazing. There are 8 Hermanas and 4 Elders.
10 of us are going to McAllen. So that's awesome. We all get along so well. We have breakfast, lunch, and dinner with each other. Plus we always want to play volleyball with each other. Even though we spend like 7-8 hours in class with each other, we still want to hang out with each other. We all laugh constantly when were eating with each other.
The food here is decent, we have been told by other missionaries don't eat the red chicken. Also the Elders told us not to eat the mashed potatoes.
We went to a health and safety video yesterday and the lady that was in charge of the meeting told us that we barely missed an oral-something breakout where 200 missionaries got sick.
What the heck? My companion and I just looked at each other like...are you kidding me?! hahaha
Yeah, if the food doesn't look cooked, don't eat it.
I have grown in my testimony of this gospel so much this past week haha. I have grown in my Spanish for SURE. I love my Savior, I know he lives.
Be yourself, stay 2 legit 2 quit.
