 Y o yo how has everyone been? Sorry for not writing in a good minute (to those who actually read these). Its been good here in Renton, great people and a lot of work to do. It's almost that time for the World Cup!!! I'm super excited but we don't get to watch it so I'm not actually that excited... I did buy a Messi Argentina jersey from Walmart today tho so thats pretty awesome sauce. Anyways I hope I get to watch a few games at least but we will see what happens. Members We have been working so hard these past 2 weeks to work with and get to know the members in our ward. After getting a total of 5 dinners last transfer we figured we should start begging so thats pretty much what every Sunday looks like now. To be fair tho it is working and we are actually getting dinners. Great news as well, your boy is starting to actually save money properly haha. Companions I'm in a trio for those of you that don't know and it's actually a really fun trio. I love my com...

  Alrighty guys what is poppin!!?? I actually dont really know what to write about but I will figure it out. We get transfer news tomorrow night so thats exciting. I hope i stay in renton but we will see what happens.  Party We had a mother's day fiesta on Saturday night and it was the funnest thing ever. The Elders quorum put it on and it was basically just a night for the moms. We mostly just went around making sure they had whatever food and drinks they wanted / needed but after a while we got to eat. Us missionaries also preformed a little song which was kinda horrible but if you wanna hear it, it's on my Google photos! After everything they just started blasting music and I danced sooo much it was actually so fun. All the member were loving my dance moves haha so many of them recorded me it was fire. At one point my quad started cramping and everyone was scared I hurt my knee but were all good. haha BAPPY!!! We had a baptism!! My boy carlos got baptized yesterday and it w...

Hey Hey!

  Honestly not sure what to talk about but I know I'm going to be extremely sore tomorrow. We started our p-day by getting haircuts (chopped but it was cheap so I don't really care). After that we ran to some park for 2v2 basketball games outside. WARNING⚠️⚠️(skip this long thing if you dont care about 2v2 basketballšŸ¤“)  My teammate and I went 2-0, we were the underdogs by the way but I was shooting like prime high school JP$ so it makes sense why we won. After that we played some baseball, then a long game of kickball with the zone. After that we played a little more baseball until heading to the stake center to finish the basketball 7 game series.  Here we go... me and my teammate win game 3 making the series 3-0. We think we're gonna take the trophy so we let off a little and end up losing the game for putting the series 3-1. They go up 9-0 and sweep us 21-13 for game 5 making the series 3-2. (We are playing games to 21) then game 6 goes 18-15, were down and ...

Here we go again

  Alright y'all I'm not gonna lie to you its been a roller coaster of emotions these past few weeks. Last week we had transfers and I  got a new comp. I actually really started liking him until he told me he was going home in two days for medical reasons... Sooo ya i had a comp for 5 days when the transfer started and those 5 days were actually awesome, then i found out I was getting Emergency Transfered  down to Renton so now I'm in Renton in a trio and it's way different. I miss the Elders I lived with and the zone I was with back in Sammamish but i know that everything will work out. All of this change Ive been experiencing recently kinda shook me up and so I'm slowly trying to get back up on my feet but we are making progress.  I love the Renton area but theres a few problems i have been facing 1. I have literally no money and I swear we haven't been payed in forever, like 3ish weeks I think 2. I have no food because I had just bought food at the other ...

Transfers

Image
  What's up y'all! These past few weeks have been a roller coaster for me. We had transfers this past week and unfortunately I lost elder Oman. He was the goat and I'm really sad he got transferred but its fine. My new comp is Elder Harrast and he's actually super chill as well which is good. The only problem is he goes home literally tomorrow morning for health stuff that he needs to take care of... so I am getting another new comp tomorrow.  I am actually super nervous because I'm really hoping its a good one. Anyways, the work here is fine. Nothing crazy but it's still moving forward. We have an on date for mid April but we're probably going to have to move it back because we haven't been able to meet with him recently and we still have to teach him quite a bit. Its fine tho he will get baptized eventually. General conference was a super weird experience. I watched the Saturday morning session at a recent converts house with my comp and it was super f...

Snow

What's up yall. Yep you guessed it, we got snowed on twice in Seattle, in March. What the heck is even that?! Because there are so many missionaries who don't know how to drive, on Friday, we weren't aloud to drive at all and since our area is so big we couldn't even leave the apartment so we were stuck inside all day. It was lwk trash. For some reason I've ran into a lot of miserable people here haha. I've been called the F word a little to many times this week for no reason but to be honest I don't even care.  I just laugh and walk away cuz it kinda funny. But I went on an exchange it was fun. We ended up making 4 friends that day but from 7-8:30 all that happened was us getting cussed at from angry white people. I'm starting to love Spanish. At first I was wishing that I went English just because I couldn't understand anything. But this transfer I have been able to understand so much more and I actually love being a Spanish missionary. I've a...

Early Today

  What's up everybody, I'm finally getting around to writing an email in the morning which I should start doing more often. Anyways its been really fun here in Sammamish. The work is going great so far and the Spanish is really coming. I'm learning a few slang words which is good because it helps me connect with people better. haha. Somedays, especially with all the rain, the work sucks but at least now with day light savings it doesnt get dark near as fast. I gave a talk yesterday... it was funny cuz they had all 5 missionaries speak and so even after all of us finishing our talks early, we were still over by like 10 minutes haha. But my talk was soooo much better then the last because I could actually go off script and talk like a normal person a little bit.  Fun... We have a lot of fun in this house... don't worry we still follow rules and get stuff done but it's so fun here. Fun fact we have a pool table in our complex so in our free time we play that quite a bi...
