Dear Family and Friends,
Whoa! It has been a crazy/full set of days so far! There isn't a minute wasted in the MTC. My first day went as follows:
1- I got dropped off at 1 and immeadiatly after we start picking up supplies.
2- After getting supplies (language learning materials) I was sent to the classroom. A little thing about the classroom is that no one speaks english, only Tagalog so you spend 2 or 3 hours trying to communicate and blubber in broken Tagalog and hope you survive
3- They send to devotionals, orientation, and intros to things
4- You go to dinner
5- Go back to room and hope its over (it is at this point)
6- Lights out at 10:30, but you can't sleep until 1 in the morning just because of nerves
I have two companions, which is weird, Elder Cachrin and Elder Lind, they are both awesome and i am very fortunate and blessed to have them around. Also there are 7 other missionaries in my district (which consists of 2 rooms, 4 to 5 Elders per room).
I miss you guys so much but I know that you all will taken care of while I'm gone! Keep writing, its what has pulled me through most of these days, I will try to write you all back ASAP. I love you all so much!
