Hello everyone.this last week was fun because we got to go trick or treating with some investigators at the military base. but this week was tough because we had alot of appointments cancel. on monday we had 5 appts. cancel, so we were out on the street all night. but things are going alot better in general now that i'm with elder hirsche. he's a champ, and we work really hard together which is good, last transfer bugged me because my companion didn't really do much. but now things are rolling. tonight we are meeting an investigator from tanzania in africa, we are eating at the grandys and then teaching him there, he's pretty sweet. his middle name is bukuku. we met him last thursday night at an event with the military ward. things are getting better with the language, my companion really pushes me to talk to people. so that helps alot. oh and i official have my green card now as of yesterday i'm no longer an illegal immigrant haha. not much is going on, time goes really fast because the days are all so similiar. i learned how to make some pretty good fried rice, well actually i just taught myself it pretty easy i've seen people do it a few times and i tried it out, it was pretty good but could use some soy sauce. last night was our english class and i taught 4 kids that were between 10-13 years old in korean age so like 9-12 in american, and they taught me some games to play that you don't need anything for, it was fun, the bishop wants us to baptize 2 of them cause the other 2 are his sons and he wants them all to grow up in the church so i'll see what i can do. did i ever tell you my bishop looks like jackie chan? its pretty sweet and he's a way sweet guy, i'll get a picture with him and send it sometime, well gotta run
love ya'll court
