4 Weeks Down

Hey family and friends :) Everything is going great here in the MTC. I know I´ve said this before, but I´ll say it again, the MTC is very repetitious... I´m locked into a schedule now, and it´s all I ever do. I´m learning a lot, and I´m following all the rules, but not much ever changes around here. They say the only difference between prison and the MTC is that in prison you get visitors. It´s not totally like that, but in a lot of ways it is. Last week our Brazilian roommates left, and we got a couple more. I can hardly speak to them, but they´re fun. This week our district is getting 4 more people. We´re looking forward to messing with them. We´re pretending we only speak Portuguese, and that we´re celebrating Christmas since it´s winter in Brazil. We´ll confuse them pretty badly :) . I´m getting a new companion since I´m in a three way currently. It will be weird. Not a lot has happened lately. We got a new cafeteria, among other things. I can´t believe I´m almost halfway done with the MTC. 4 weeks down, 5 to go. I'm looking forward to going out into the field, but I know I have a lot to learn first. I need my brothers and sisters to write me more. Dakota too. I love you all, and I love hearing about how you´re all doing. I spent way to much time reading, so now my letter is short. I love you and I hope you have a great week.
