WWOOOWWW!!

Okay, so remember my last comp about 10 months ago that I had from
Mexico, and how horrible that 6 weeks was for me? Well ya, my new comp
is from Mexico. AND SHES AWESOME!!!! I LOVE HER GUTSSS!!!! She's sooo
cute, and new and just a little shy girl... which is rough being a
missionary cause you have to talk to a million people, but I'm just
gonna be the example for her, so that she can end her mission on fire!
I gotta teach her all I know so that she can be a leader among her
companions.

We had a really stressful week, seriously, it was UNBELIEVABLELY
STRESSFULLLLL....we had 2 baptisms, like they are progressing SO MUCH,
and they just decided they need more time. like seriously, I'm not even
kidding, we sat at each interview waiting for 2 or 3 hours, it was
rough, but they still need to see a baptismal service I think, they
just haven't had time to come to one, but I know that they will get
dunked right then and there if they saw one. Seriously, these people
are READY!!! They just need to recognize the spirit better.

Ohhhh so this week was Semana Santa, like I said last week, it really
was crappy, no body was home and it was soooooooooooooooooooooo
hotttttttttttttt. seriously, it drained all my energy, I don't know how
I functioned throughout the day! but it happened, and it was tough, we got through it, and a couple of nice members made mexican food for us, so it was worth it, seriously they are the best inactives
EVER. And they came to church, sooooo that was awesome.

We got a sweet Hawaiian in our district now, let's just say we are
best friends. seriously, he only has 3 months in the mish, but he's
rockin it, and he gave us all hawaiian keychains, so it looks like I've
been there,,,, one day... hahahaha

The fun senior couple in our district had a surprise Easter dinner
for us! It was soooo nice, and sooo gross, cause we ate fish. I still
can't eat it, I take little bites then just gave it to the Hawaiian,
you know how they love fish. Hahahahah but seriously it was a nice
little dinner, it was in a hotel, with a pool... oh my gosh. so
tempting. 18 mnths is a long time to not go swimming, I miss it.
hhaha, but it was a really great, we watched the Easter mormon
message, and got a nice bag of candy. I was like, WHAT CANDY FOR
EASTER! THIS NEVER HAPPENS IN MY HOUSE!! hahahah.

During this semana santa, it's actually reallly dumb... they only
celebrate this once a year... well 2 times, cause Christmas, but all
they do is drink and party then repent with the father of the church.
and it's like uhhhh ok, that'll save ya, don't you worry... not. But on
the last day, they burn Judas!!! They make dolls of Judas big or
small, and then burn him in the streets!! They all just get together
and burn him. And it's ridiculous. I think anyways. I dunno a lot of
things have made me grateful that I'm a member of the only true church.

Welp I was reading in Doctrine and Covenants this week and I came across this.
D&C 63:9-11. It's nice. Read it.

Sorry, it's a really complicated email, frusterating week. But ahi
vamos... what the ticos say.
