August 23, 2010

I'll start off by saying that this week has been relatively hot considering that it was still winter. Where I am has reached 25 degrees Celsius a couple of days, and downtown buenos aires reached 30 a day or two. In Fahrenheit I think that 30 is about 85. One of the nights we got attacked by Mosquitos so we didn't sleep too well that night. But after that we used mosquito repellant and fans to blow the Mosquitos away. So after that we slept pretty good.

Last Wednesday was marias birthday, and so she invited us to spend some time at her house that night. During the day on Thursday we were walking along a plaza and it was pretty hot so my comp suggested that we walk in the shade. I kept walking straight a little bit but he turned instantly to walk in the shade. He decided to walk on some concrete that had some muddy spots on it, and the moment he put his foot down he slipped. It was pretty funny. He had mud completely covering his side and some of it was yellow and green. He even had some mud in his ear. So needless to say we had to go back to the apartment so that he could change before we went to lunch that day. We taught silvia our weekly lesson. This week we taught about ...honorability? I don't know. It's honradez in Spanish. It was the upcoming gospel principles lesson and the teacher asked her to talk for a few minutes at the beginning of the class. We also talked about the war in the preexistence and then she asked us about the Moronis that are on most of the temples. 


During the week our neighbors (who have the same address as us) came and asked us if we had paid their gas bill this month because they went to pay it and they were told that it had already been paid. But we don't think we paid it so that was pretty weird.

I cut my hair this past week as well. Turned out pretty well. It was going to rain Sunday and today but it never rained.

As far as teaching lessons go, I am getting a lot better. We've taught a lot of lessons in the streets but not so many to solid investigators. The investigators that we do have haven't gone to church in a pretty long time so it's fairly frustrating.

We have our zone conference tomorrow and I still haven't written my talk haha, so that's something I've got to do today. I only have about 3 weeks left in this area.

I can't really think of other things to put right now. So I guess that will be about it. Until next week?
