2016.11.29 Week 26 - A million degrees here

As I sit here in this cyber (internet cafe) I am just laughing because:

1. I smell like armpit.

2. I am on intercambios (exchanges) right now and forgot my toothbrush.

3. I can´t decide if I have a fever or it's just a million degrees here.

4. My companion looks like a gypsy but is really happy cuz her skirt was 15 pesos.

5. I want Crocs for Christmas. Seriously. But not just any. Platform Crocs, black, with a racing stripe. They are pretty much just super awesome and the most Argentine thing EVER. Everyone here wears Crocs ALL THE TIME. To church. In the park. Qualquier momento. (At any time.) Yep. I used to hate them. But things change. Please donate to my fund. 

Anyway, life is great here. I love my mission SO MUCH. I just realized this week how great it really is. There is no better opportunity that you could ever take in your life. When else am I going to learn all the things I am learning. NEVER. Basically, just all of you prepare now to serve a mission because it is the best thing you could ever do. 

Well, I can´t really think of anything else. Please pray for me as I try to do intercambios (exchanges) with people that are sure they know way more than me and don´t want to listen to anything I say. Literally, this one chick wouldn´t even look at me and my companion as we tried to talk to her. She better just watch out because I am about to shower her in love. WE EVEN BOUGHT HER PIZZA. I'll let you all know how it goes. 

Have a great life and remember that God loves you. He has a plan for you. And if you pray and ask him he will show you what you need to do.

In other news that I just remembered. ILUMINA EL MUNDO (Light the World). It's this awesome movement that the church is doing for Christmas. DO IT PEOPLE.

Bueno, ciao.

2016.11.21 Week 25 - Lots of miracles this week

I have no time left. But it was a great week. The comp and I are homies now. And we saw lots of miracles this week.

Here are 2:

We say hi to a woman outside of her house and start talking to her. Turns out she "Has a Mormon Bible" and has been reading it for 30 years. She loves it and knows it's true.

We contact a random house. The woman comes out. Hi, we are the missionaries. Oh hi, me and my husband were just eating lunch and wondering who we have to pay to get into that church on Elflein y Frey. Oh that's our church, it's free. Awesome. Can we teach you? SICK MAN.

Hope you all have a fantastic week and remember that God loves you!

2016.11.14 Week 24 - I have been here forever

I am still alive. All is well. Donald is Trump. And the only thing anyone wants to talk about here is Trump. Oh well. He cray.

Transfers happened and my companion left me. It was pretty much the saddest thing ever and was really shocking. She´s only been here one transfer and I have been here forever so I am not really sure how that happened. 

Anyway, I'm an Hermana Lider (leader) now. I'm in charge of all the Hermanas in the South of our mission and will be doing intercambios (exchanges) with all of them. It should be fun. I was really hoping I could have more time as a normal missionary before I had all these other responsibilities, pero todobien (but all is well). 

My new comp is probably a great person but I haven´t found out yet. All I know is that she brought enough suitcases and things to last her 10,000 years.  We´ll see how it goes. Please pray for me.

Funny Moment of the Week: 

I can´t think of one, sorry.

Spiritual Moment of the Week:

God prepares us for anything we have to do. Even if it seems hard. WE GOT THIS.

 A lady in our ward knit us these sweaters. She cried when I told her I might be leaving this area.

2016.11.7 Week 23 - I can't wait to help him in his life goal

Not much happened this week.

THATS A LIE.

I´m engaged. 

A really great drug dealer in the street invited me to get married to him 4 times yesterday. I'm really excited for our wedding that will probably be tomorrow and I can't wait to help him in his life goal to have "millions of Canadian children"

But in reality I told him about thirty times I wasn't from Canada. And he was just absolutely sure that we needed to get married. HANNAH (BYU friend) I accomplished that thing on your bucket list that was, "Get someone to fall in love with you, propose, SAY NO" Never thought that would happen but I am really glad you can cross it off the list. 

Besides that, the week was a little normal, but I am loving serving the Lord and interested to see what translados (transfers) bring this Friday. There is a good chance I will be leaving Bariloche because I have been here so long. I'm really sad about that, but we will see. Love you all!
