So here's some stuff that happened:
I was in class first after I checked in. The teacher started
to talk to me and I was like: ..................0.0................... it was
hilarious if you were watching I"m sure. lol and he was saying the simple
nederalnds phrases too hehheh.....
There's a group that's been in here for weeks and they're
learning dutch too. One of 'em preteneded like he was from the Netherlands and
we all totally believed it. We were all scared to talk to him and everything
lol. E. Eastmond, and he's a great guy :)
What's cool is like half the people learning dutch are going
to Suriname in the West Indies. South America. You can look it up :) they get
to run from anacondas and head hunters hehheh.............
Boy, it's insane here. but cool too. Elder Bednar spoke to
us this Tuesday and he outlined his study plan when he studies the teachings of
general conference. I don't have time for the whole thing but mainly it was too
look for:
- doctrines
- invitations
- promised blessings
Cool stuff :) he quoted a scripture in regards to the age
change in missionary work. He said that "the Lord is in charge of His work
and He can hasten it in His own time" or something to that effect. Awesome
huh? You know the stay time at the mtc is being shortened too? it's from 9
weeks to like 6 for foreign missionaries. Not for us though :) we get the extra
time. Our estimated leave time is December 3rd. There's soo much more I wish I
could say! Like how awesome and terrible the investigator lessons are. And how
I always turn the wrong direction and Elder King (my companion) has to drag me
back the right way lol. Or how, well, there's tons of things.
BUt I miss you all and wish I could write each of you! I
will whenever I get a chance. I'm still pretty slow at stuff so I'll get better
soon (hopefully).
I'll send some pics as soon as I can make it work. It's kind
of a pain....
I love and miss jullie! (thats dutch, not a person).... take
care, continue to be awesome and I'll write more when I can...
Elder Chantry!!
(P.S. This is Carsten's mom...I looked it up "jullie"
means you in Nederlands "Dutch")
