Hey everyone! It is 6:45 in the morning and we are down doing our laundry. It is insane that we leave today. We leave the MTC at 11:30 so we have a few hours. I have been getting everything packed and I think I am just going to make weight limits haha. It has been fun packing knowing that the next time I unpack will be on an island in the Philippines. I have really been enjoying the MTC. I am going to really miss it, good food, good schedule, good teachers, great speakers and stuff.
Christmas day we had Russell M. Nelson of the Twelve come speak and he also did a priesthood meeting. Last night I got the chance to do my first ever priesthood blessing. It was really cool. I wrote you all (Mom, Dad, Mace, Breck & Britt) on Christmas day and I am sending a package home with stuff I didn't have room for and Christmas presents for you all.
Travis Reynolds wrote me and that was really cool to hear what he had to say about his mission. I am really going to try and embrace the culture. I think it will be way different but the faster I become one of them, the faster I will be happy and comfortable. I hope the food doesn't wreck my stomach haha. Sorry I am kind of running out of things to say...next week I will have plenty of things haha. umm..The language is going well although I will have to learn something else. But the only difference is the vocabulary, so all the gramar principles are the same so that's good cuz they are what I have been working hardest on.
There are like 30 of us in the same travel group so I will call but I am not going to hog all the time. We will see how many phones there are. We aren't allowed to call from Hong Kong, so just SLC and LA...Also I can only call immediate family which I didn't know about. So tell like Kyle and James I am really sorry because I was going to call them too. Please text them this morning (or have Macy) to tell them I cannot call them, unless while you and I are on the phone you want to call them and I will talk to them through the two phones haha. Well I will be as safe as possible and probably even have some conversions on the plane haha :)
I Love You!
PS...in the package I am sending is my grey pants and coat. I ripped the butt on the pant. If they can be fixed sweet but if not I guess do whatever with them. Love ya. Talk to you soon
