Craziest week of me life! When i got here i hadd two companions. i now have 1. the one that got sent home was acting very strange the first day i got here. he then started doing things like casting out spirits. he wouldn't go talk to anyone about it for the first few days. the third day i had to yell at him to get him to talk to someone! he's at home now hopefully getting his head taken care of. but now everythings pretty normal. there are only 2 people in my district. just me and elder bastian. he's a pretty cool guy. he wants to be here but he didn't really seem to do much studying before he came here. the other dutch speakers are all great. they're the most hilarious people in the world and they helped me out a lot my first few days. i'm still gettin used to stuff here but things are runnin smoother for me now. I NEED A PAIR OF JEANS AND THE REST OF MY BELTS THAT I FORGOT ASAP! Elder Oaks spoke yesterday. it was awesome. don't remeber a word he said though. i'm taking notes next time. i feel really wierd about life right now. i'm just gettin used to livin like this so i'm in a wierd transition between espn all day to scriptures and dutch all day. by the way, keep the jazz updates coming. the dutch is going ok. the teachers expect a lot out of us so there's a lot of pressure to do stuff right. somedays we have to do these teachin sim things where we preach to actors pretendin to be investigators. it's kind of wierd but i learn a lot from them. that's the part of the week that i dred though. i don't remember being more nervous to do anything other then my fairwell talk. the temple is closed this week. what kind of missionary am i? i haven't been to the temple in 2 weeks! grandma said grandpa went to church again. i'm really happy to hear that. seeing him at my setting apart was probably the most memorable thing about it all. hmmm 8 minuts left and i don't know what did say. umm thanksgiving sounds like it's going to be great for us. another apostle is suppose to speak. they never tell us beforehand for security reasons because i guess we missionaries are prime terrorist suspects(joke). tell me any news you hear from tanner because my letters i just wrote won't get sent until monday. maybe give tanner my e mail and see if his mission pres lets him use it. hey jase how's AC2 going? don't get too detailed about it because i'm kind of a missionary now so be careful what you tell me. STAY IN SCHOOL!i love you all and miss you already! put my mailing address facebook. and when is nick leaving? you left that info out. and what mtc because theres one there happy thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
