It must be that families don't have to spend as much money to feed their missionaries anymore so they go by new toys. You guys got a new computer and my companion's family bought a new plasma TV. I don't think the mail is very good. I sent a letter on Thursday to you guys and I don't think it will arrive for a long time. I didn't get Kaylee or Kyle's letters. A kid in our district said his girlfriend sent him 2 letters 3 weeks before he came into the MTC and he still has not received them. Colten has sent me a couple short emails of encouragement. He says he loves it out there. It was really fun to hear from him.
I did get to hear about the World Cup from a couple of my teachers. It sounds like they were very good games. Also, please remember that "your actual boy" is in Mexico right now and did not cost the Jazz 63 million.
I can't believe Mel cried in church. I have never seen him cry before. I really hope everything is well back home in the ward. I do miss everyone back there but I am now on my own adventure. Tell Paul and Mitch congrats on their talks and that I am jealous they only have to stay in the MTC for 2 weeks.
This week has been pretty ordinary. We get up, study, read the scriptures, practice the language, teach fake investigators, and then study some more. We did have one interesting thing happen this week. There has been a virus going around the CCM and we have not been allowed to shake hands the whole time I have been here. Well, apparently Elder Toth, my roommate, got it. He had spent the day on the toilet and by the end of the day was feeling much better. After we went to sleep, we heard a thud as he flew off the top bunk, and then the splatter of his puke on the floor because he didn't make it to the bathroom in time. He cleaned it up because none of us wanted to help clean up the nasty smelling and looking vomit. Miraculously none of it got on any of our stuff. Don't worry Mom, I am staying healthy and very hygienic.
I am starting to get along with my companion better, but I am sure we still have a few things that bother each other. Let's hope we can keep working out our differences.
No, I did not feel the earthquake. Although I was up late that night because there was a huge party just outside the CCM. It sounded like a pretty epic party. The music was way loud.
Camping sounds like it was a blast and I wish I could have been there. Hopefully I can be there for the 2016 camp out. Just think, I will only have to miss one more Fourth of July. Yippee!
Thanks Kenz for setting up the blog. We both know Mom and Dad are not technologically inclined at all. As for the Robin you saved, I could care less right now because one just pooped on my clean white shirt as I walked over here. They don't have any stain remover for us to use or buy, but one kid in our district has a little so I will try and borrow some from him.
I still have a little time left so I may get on later today and send you guys a couple pictures.
Love and miss you,
Elder Karter Isaacson
