December 5, 2011

Hello Family,

This week is a little boring. A lot happened and then a lot not. So I`m exhausted.

     So the changes that happened were very eventful, so instead of waiting till Tuesday during District Meeting they told us Monday. Elder Yaringaño got changed to Ayolas by the river, so he spent our Pday cleaning, packing, stressing, etc. When we left to proselyte all we did was say goodbye, no lessons. Tuesday we all went to Coronel Oviedo and did divisions all day and wednesday everybody left.
     For my divisions I was with Elder Wistinsen. He practiced Brazilian Jujitsu, I connected really well with him. That night there was a Farewell party for Elder Skinner who went home. At 1am I took Elder Skinner to the terminal and was supposed to pick up my Comp. Unfortunately my comp didn`t arrive on the bus we thought. So I was alone for an entire 10 minutes on my way back to the zone leaders pension. It was really dangerous because there are always Prostitutes that work on that road. Then I waited for the next bus to arrive at 3:30am and went with the Zone leaders to the terminal. 
     My new Comp, Elder Villalba from Argentina (Huhui or something like that), and I were supposed to take a bus back to Villarrica at 4:30am, but it didn`t come, so we ended up waiting until 7:30am to catch a different bus. During this time we talked and saw all the other Elders arrive and leave. Turns out that Elder Villalba is practically a Latin version of Elder Parker. A random member girl from Asuncion asked for my Facebook and a Book of Mormon. So I asked for references from Villarrica. She gave me the references so I complied. Anyways we got back to Villarrica at 8ish. 
    The zone leaders gave us permission to sleep in for a bit because I only got 2 hours of sleep before hand. Slept in until Lunch at 1pm. Ate at Flia Mercado`s. Went to pick up my clothes. Randomly there was a crazy storm that only lasted 30 minutes. Wierd. Cleaned up the pension of Elder Yaringaño`s junk and let Elder Villalba unpack. Pulled out money and bought food. Didn`t really do anything else.

    Thursday was a Plan Gua`u (Fake). I basically just went through all the Investigators and gave Elder Villalba background information on them. We went out to work, but didn`t really accomplish anything. Celebrated a birthday of an investigating family`s little girl. Did tons of contacts, but we can`t get in any lessons. Sometimes we get lucky, but the people don`t really want to progress they just were being polite. That is how the rest of the week went.
     Friday I taught English class by myself again. Saturday we celebrated 3 more birthdays. Hna Raquel, Elder Pastul, and Miguel Àngel all had thier birthday on that weekend so we ate an Asado. Sunday I think the food gave me chivivi, so we couldn`t follow our plans because I had to stay close to the house. 36 people came to church.

Sorry that this week`s email was kind of lame, but you get what ya gat and you don`t throw a fat... chick out the window.

Love ya,
Elder Zachary James Singson
