1/20/2010- Still in the MTC but things are good:)

So it's been a crazy week so far. I had to move rooms so i'm not sure what happened to the dear elders letters you sent me, thus i may for get to answer some questions you had.

I have heard nothing new about the visa situation. I got moved into a new room. i'm in a district with the new dutch. Its nice being in a district of more than 2. Also they made me zone leader of the branch to give me something to do in these next couple of weeks. I have time to do pretty much whatever i want now so things are looking up. One of my teachers said he was trying to talk his boss into letting me do splits with the Provo missionaries. that would be a cool way to kill some time here.

Don't worry mom, the letters i got from jeanie and brenda were not mean;) I t was nice to talk to you. It was weird though. I thought i would be freaking out when i talked to you but it felt like it hadn't even been that long since i talked to you.

I finally got that Life Flight calender. It was funny because there was a letter in it that said i would just about be going to Suriname when i got it. WRONG! ha ha

Wow what did president Griffin tell ELder Perry? Hopefully Elder Perry doesn't come to talk to me about how to stop being a baby. So what did you tell president Griffin? I'm not doing too bad right now. I'm still figuring out how to make time useful here but other then that things are good.

I would like you to keep sending Tanner's e mails and mine to him. We are keeping in contact but it's just nice to here about him when he's not able to write me.

For tht devotional yesterday someone from the seventy came and talked to us about how important the Book of Mormon is. He talked about how his family reads in it every once in a while and discussed what thay read. I thought about how we had never really done that. Maybe you should try that now. I bet it would help Jase a lot in these next few years bofore his mission.

Also enough with the depressing Jazz news! I don't need to hear about that anymore. You can tell me about them if they get a high seed in the playoffs or something like winning the ship but unless it's something very significant ... no thanks.

I think i'm going to try and get a "solo" sticker so i can do some things by myself and not have someone yelling "Hey you punk! Where's your comp!?" That way i can go to the phone answering place by myself during the time i have for collega studie istead of just sitting by myslef for another hour of personalijke studie.

I still kinda have classes but it's pretty much been me and my teachers discussing what to do with me for the next weeks.

I like being with this new group. they look to for an example for somethings and they really try to be obedient so they are good examples for me. i think this might be my favorite part of my mtc experience.( i would still like to be in Suriname asap though)

My new favorite thing to say is "heilige koe, ik ben moe" that means holy cow i'm tired. ha ha it rhymes...

Alright family. I love you and all the support that come from the extended family awseome. I get home next year so i'll see you soon

Love Hayden.
