Upset Stomach - Girly Voice

Hey everyone! This week has been a pretty good week. Kind of longer than normal but it is okay. Today we had transfer announcements which is when our zone leaders tell us who will transfer and who will stay. Turns out I am staying with Elder Bosotros another transfer. I won't lie 12 weeks is a long time with any human but 18 is unheard of haha. I will have to trust that it is like this for a reason? We will be getting a new missionary in our house though so that will be really cool I think I am excited to meet lots of people and learn from them. I pray he is obedient and hard working. So this week Saturday I woke up and worked out a little. I ate breakfast then started my studies (we get one hour of personal, one hour companion, and one hour language) Then for lunch I had some tuna on top of rice (of course). Then we went out and started working and I started having pain in my stomach and had to use the bathroom. So turns out I think the tuna was bad or something because we had to return to the house because I had to use the bathroom like every 15 minutes and my stomach was killing me. I was also feeling weak and kind of dizzy. We stayed home that night. Then all night it was the same with my stomach. I would wake up and have to use the bathroom. Same throughout the morning but it was Sunday moring so we went to church. But we had to leave after sacrament because I was dying. We sat at home almost all day, then at 4 I felt okay so I said we could go work so we went out. But after walking like ten minutes I started getting way dizzy and tired and my stomach started killing again so we ended up teaching one lesson then going home. I felt bad for Elder Bosotro. Then this morning it feels a little better but still odd. Oh Well it will go away I hope. If not I will call Sister Pagaduan and ask her what doctor to go to? or what medicine to take. So on the work. We have been teaching our recently baptized the lessons for post baptism and we also have another kid getting baptized April 2nd. He is a kid who was going to church and we didn't know he wasn't a member. He has been way awesome, he has also gotten some of his friends over to his house to listen to us. Lots of referrals so that is way good. His name is Ernesto LaVega and he is 17 yrs old. How is everything going at home? The weather has been good here this week. Overcast for the most part but I still constantly sweat. We also got to see a fight this week haha. Two young teenagers were going at it on the side of a road, then a guy broke them up. I have a question for anyone who reads this and will help me out. I have been reading in the Book of Mormon and in Mosiah 7:31 and Mosiah 12:6 it talks about the "East Wind." What do you think the meaning is of that? I know it is in the Bible too but I don't really have the resources to look it up more in depth. I appreciate any help on that. Oh I was going to tell you. Everyone here always does karaoke haha it is funny because they are terrible but I did it for my first time ever. I sang "kabet" by "gaggong rapper" haha you will have to look it up but to be honest it is Tagalog so I don't understand all the words so if it is bad I am sorry I dont know haha. Wow I can't even believe about Cooper. I obviously didn't know him way great but that is nuts. I feel so bad for his parents. It is crazy when things like that happen. (Garrett's cousin Cooper was killed in a snow skiing accident.) On the other hand I was glad to see all the missionaries. It makes me so happy to know people are serving the Lord and will be joining me throughout the world. Especially when I know so many of them. Hey dad. I was afraid Spanish Fork would win again. That sucks they are so good haha. Does Kasey Reynolds play or dress or is he old enough ha I don't remember his age. I got a letter from Janell Reynolds so that was cool. I will write her later. I bet you are excited that young men basketball is over. That was a lot of work for you (and me :) keeping score when I could.) I get letters from Jon Bowler so when you see him tell him thanks for me. Also please give me the address of Hilton Covington. I want to write him and thank him for helping me out on the dedicated hunter project last year(although it is way late haha). Anways things are good. Go find some turkeys! I Love you Dad! So about the language. I have been getting a lot more confident. I would say anything I need to get across I have no problem. At least in lessons. Also with normal conversation I can do that too. It is crazy to think three months ago I started learning a new language and now I know it. Obviously I have a lot of room to grow, get better at grammar and learn deeper things and deeper vocab, but it is way cool if you really think about it. I also think I got lucky to learn Kinaray'a which only a very very small area of the entire world speaks (like maybe Washington County sized.) I will never use it after my mission probably but it is fun. Something different here is that the higher your voice is the more they understand. So if I talk normal sometimes they don't understand. But if I make my voice higher, almost girly, they understand haha and all of the men here have high voices. Anyway I am out of time. I love you all and miss you tons! talk to you next week I am at a new computer shop this week and it won't let me send photos so sorry I will send next week. I love you all. bye bye
