I have been here for over a week which is just craziness. It feels like forever but in a good way! My companions are pretty awesome. We are all pretty different but we get along well. A lot of time we just end up laughing about things and have to be like 'focus!' and get back to work. Hermana P has the best facial expressions and knows tons about Spanish, so I am already relying on her. Hermana S knows a line from every movie and is very outgoing...which helps me, since I am not!
Most of the day we spend in the classroom...pretty much on our own. We wake up have personal study for an hour, then head to breakfast. I feel pretty healthy here because all I eat is fruit and salad. Plus drink lots of water! Mostly because all the other meals are heavy on the meat. But pretty much everybody thinks I am this super healthy girl. I have got them all fooled. Though on Wednesday and Sunday they have Ice Cream...Cocunut Joy...Just skip all those fun and games and head straight for the Ice Cream!
We have two teachers during the day. Hermano Milne and Hermano Ruseke. Hno. Milne is the same age as me...which is hilarious. He is really knowledgable about the gospel, so I feel like I am learning a lot form him. It is pretty humorous because he is always making these sound effects...makes him seem my age. But he knows how to teach with the spirit. Hno Ruseke is much more serious...He kind of reminds me of a Jedi master. He also knows the gospel like the back of his hand and has been working us hard to learn the doctrines.
There are 8 Elders in my district. They are all going to Honduras...they are pretty funny and are starting to warm up to us. Apparently they are scared of girls...but it is all good because we force them to sit by us at lunch!
I am doing pretty good here. Every hour I feel like I am feeling a different emotion but I always go back to being happy. Elder holland came and spoke to us on tuesday about working hard and not wasting a minute, so I am trying to embrace this opportunity and sieze it. I miss you all and think about you all the time! I love you a million bowls of cocunut joy!
Love- Hermana Roberts the Beautiful
