hey hows it going. its good to hear how well sam and lia are doing, i sure do miss them. so yesterday we had the transfers phone call to see who was leaving but my comp had a ton of stuff packed but when the phone call never came we thouhjt we were going to be together another change. so in the morning he wanted to call our district leader to find out for sure cause he really wants to leave haha and sure enough the DL said i had changes ME! i just got here 3 months ago to my 3rd area and now off to my 4th area in 8 months! i move way to much but it keeps it interesting, so last night me and E Smedley were talking about if we both got changed to the same district again how funny and how slim the chances are of that happening but it turns out we are neighbors again! and in the same district. im going back out to Chalco where i started but im in a different area its called Vincente Guerrero its kinda the suburbs of chalco but really poor and dirty a big change from where we are now but i like it out therea lot more relaxed and the members are way cool and humble, so me and smedley are leaving tommorrow and our comps are both americans and we are the senior comps so hopefully my comp knows some spanish at least i dont want to teach him everything because i barely know it! so thats the news about changes, so today we played our last soccer game as a zone and in our last game Smedley came to shoot and i went to block and some how some way my ankle got messed up! i can barely walk on it and it hurts so hopefully it gets to feeling better soon or its goonna be a long few weeks walking on it every day. but other than that i still have to go and pack all my stuff and then say goodbye to all the members so its gonna be a LONG P-Day well othr than that its about it on my side down here i hope you guys have a great week and keep up the good work, tell the hollidays that im proud of them and give lia and sam hugs and i love you guys soo much.
adios

feeling better
well time is officially going by fast i cant believe its june already. so this week has been good nothing too exciting has happened so far. today me and elder smedley and our comps went to a mall again to hang out and i was looking for a new Ipod (his old ipod broke this week, and he is dreaming of a new one to put all of his music and pictures on) and found out the electronics are way more expensive here!¡ I looked up one on the internet here but its like almost a hundred dollars more than what I can get in the states! it was crazy but im thinking about it, one even has a translater built in!! i could better my spanish whith it and bring more souls to the Gospel haha.
anyways the sickness is gone and im feeling a lot better. work has been good this week we found some good families to teach which i love, teaching whole families is the coolest thing ever. so this sunday we have changes or transfers however you want to call it so we find out if one of us is leaving or both are staying. so other than that nothing has really happened just the same old stuff different day, so im here with elder smedley and he said his mom told him you wrote her and sent a picture of me and she just said "wow hes big!" haha thats the impression i make on people haha im definately planning on hanging with smedley after the mission hes super cool and hes 24 so i might hook him up with C---- see if she wants a pen pall hahaha
well i better get finishing up i have no idea what to write about my mind is totally blank so i might write later but i love you guys soo much dont have too much fun without me haha
