ok well as for the new monday pday, im not the biggest fan. The place that we email from is closed on monday, and there is no where else i am allowed to email from in this town, which is kind of odd.. So for this week and at least next week maybe ill be emailing on thursday still. Also thursday Pdays i like better because it gives a break in the middle of the week, instead of going all week without one. Now on mondays we end pday an hour early to email on another day.
I think that my new misson president is from utah but i dont remember. He is very smart and very successful person. A professor at stanford BYU michigan and 1 or 2 others. And he is on the top level of different corpoations. I will definatly be learning a lot from him. The weather here has been heating up a lot, and feels like getting more humid. Luckily it hasnt rained for about a week.
That seems like the way a lot of people are dying these days, sleeping pills. I sent a letter to the house you should be getting it soon. Plus i was going to email this monday, so it might be to late now, but if you read this in Utah and still have time, i think you should go visit President and Sister Hill (well now brother and sister hill). 1313 East Creek Road Sandy,UT 84903. That would mean a lot to me and them if you did. Cause i know that all they went back to was family and friends.
Im excited for Utah because there are things to do. The season actually change, its not just sun and rain like SD. AS for the money ill probably leave it in there for right now, or at least for a couple weeks. I have figured how i can use my MSF on the food and stuff throught the week so i wont run out of that. 300 bucks a month about 50 bucks each week, should work. I got an email from garrett so when im done with yours and family, im seeing what it says, its probably about what happened to him. I would love to have the scout shirt, but i dont ever where normal clothes enough so it would probably be sitting in a drawer here. so it would be better staying with you.
ONe thing that i would like sometime it doesnt have to be soon, maybe for christmas or something, but a MINI Bible. I have a tiny, mini BOM so its easy to travel to meeting with that,but my quad is shuch a mondai( problem). I have also finished the 4 gosples and have continued into acts and im in the last chapter of Jesus the christ. The feeling i get from the bible is something all together different than from the BOM its crazy.
This past week we have met with one of our english students and have been teaching him. He understands everything, but always says it seems like buddhism, he leaves for china in a couple days so we arent sure whats gunna happen with him. I did here from the girl from oregon, i think i wrote about it in the letter i sent. But she said she has never made a better decision in her life.
Yea well neat spots in this town are a giant park that has swans and crazy fish. Thats about it. I thnk im like a hour or so from the water maybe, im not to sure. Oh a neat experience i had, i got to anoint someone with oil for the first time, and after the blessings she gave us something interesting to eat, which will be explained in the next paragraph.
Ok well ive got some things to say ha that i have realized this past week. WEll first is ive been here 6 weeks already, transfer calls come saturday morning, chances are me and my comp are staying here, but i dont know. Second thing is ive realized that since ive been here ive been able to eat anything without getting sick or thinking it is gross. For example, after the blessing i ate squid that was stuffed with rice. It was everything but the tenticals. It was actually kinda good. Then yesterday, i had som INDO CURRY, shock huh, well it was amazing 10 times better then the stuff i had in utah ha. And another shock to you and dad probably, I eat onions. They dont bug me now, its so weird, but ive realized its a blessing.
Yesterday during my district meeting i have also figured out my main reason for coming on a mission. It might be kind of selfish, but oh well. Its so that i can become a stronger, better person and member of the church.
I love you all so much LOVE YOU
Elder Preston Coffey
