Yeah that is right I won´t let this song die. Last Christmas I gave you my heart and the very next day you gave it away. This year to save me from tears I´ll give it to someone special (special) I recommend the Ariana Grande version It has been a busy week so it is Jueves (Thursday) and I am finally writing. But Pday was awesome! I got to run 4.5 miles and I was still able to do it in sub 7 min miles YEET! Then we ate so many alfajores but it was totally worth it. Played like 2 hours of PIG with Juan and Mika and we taught Juan the phrase “This is for you Babe.” We showed them the church which was super cool. After, we saw Pablo and went and played volleyball with him and his friends in the Street. Then we taught them all a lesson! It was super cool! Tuesday let’s see what happened…We shared light the world with Rocio, Gustavo and Teresa. I invited everyone to participate in Ilumina el Mundo!

Another Pday gone by. Let´s see, I got to run on the dirt track in the morning which was dope, even if we did wake up early. We made a friend with one of the dogs there. We named her Jack and changed it to Jackie after we realized the dog was a girl. Then balled out with Gustavo, listened to some awesome music, called my family (ABBY YOU ARE AMAZING!!!). Then today we started intercambios. So I am with Elder Pienhiero de Brazil and he is new. So I´m the senior companion for the day! I´m actually way hyped. We taught a lesson on the power of hope, contacted a few people and returned to the pension. We had intercambios today. It was interesting. There was a lot of contacting and I taught every lesson. It was cool to see how much my spanish has improved. But no one wanted to listen to us today, so it was a little frustrating. But we just keep grinding! Then we taught Angelica about the Book of Mormon. The Book of Mormon is true! Then Elder Wood returned and we passed on Analia. Taugh...

Another good Pday! Had to splitscreen the computer but we chillin. Then we played basketball with Luciano an investigator. It is funny because he is so athletic, almost went pro in soccer, but when he plays basketball looks very uncoordinated. Then we dropped off Elder Harbican at the terminal to get his newby and after off to our lessons. Contacting is becoming more fun because I can understand a lot more. And we taught Rocio, Gustavo and Teresa the Tree of Life and showed them the Book of Mormon video. I love that chapter of the Book of Mormon! Just what it represents and how the gospel can be the rod of iron in our lives if we simply follow the commandments. Today was awesome! I was able to help a lot in contacts so my Spanish is indeed improving! Then we had lunch with Rocio, Gustavo and Teresa but they took awhile to prepare it we watched some church videos and played uno. They have weird rules here lol. Then some girl wanted a selfie with both me and Elder Wood. And in the aftern...

So  this, my journal and the music is the only English I hear. I love the mission! You really learn to grow closer to our Heavenly Father. Today I gave my first blessing! In Spanish too. I was so nervous it was such a cool feeling. Then today a lot of citas fell through and contacting near lunchtime is hard cause everyone is ready for their siesta lol. Then we were at the doctors forever for Elder Wood´s eye. He is all good don´t even stress folks. Then we had a super cool lesson with Antonella. You could tell she felt the spirit. Especially when we testified of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon. Oh and one of the members we have lunch with said her friends called us models and I look 15 lol. Today was roasting. I have a nice watch tan lin )YEET=. Then we taught Rocio, Gustavo...
