MTC Letter Week 4

Haha I was having fun with the title, los siento. Anyways, this week has been quite eventful, to say the least. Well, for one, we did watch conference, but no, sadly we did not get to go to the conference center. To many missionaries and not enough space, and a lack of transportation as well, kept us from going. It was still awesome though, we watched the LIVE streaming of it on big projectors in the gym, which doubles as an auditorium! I STRONGLY incourage you guys to watch this one, my favorite was both of Monson's and Holland's talk. Elder Holland was amazing to say the least! He's probably my favorite out of th 12.
I got sick around last friday so the only downfall of conference is I was sick through it all. I've just got a cough now though so no worries, the sudephed (No idea how to spell it haha) I packed and the Tylonel helped alot.
My birthday was nothing really special, but it was still awesome. That package you sent me had not only cookies but mounds and mounds of sugar and a bottle of what looked like wine, but was actually a bottle of Sparkling Cidar. Thanks again for that we enjoyed it! My district likes all the sugar as well, haha! The next day I got a package from Stephen, which was, to say the least, a box of tape the size of a 18 pack of soda wrapped around a small box that contained a camera! I would've taken pictures but my original camera was back in my room, los siento. (Sorry) The camera is amazing! Thanks again Stephen and Tricia and Baby, haha and of course anyone else who helped chipped in. Also, thanks for all the Birthday wishes via dearelder.com I got them the day of and it made the day ten times better.
Yes we do see Apostles from time to time but that was the first time I saw an apostle from the 12! So yeah, haha!
I take back what I said about Elder Seigfried's companion looking like Jason, I guess he did at the time, but I've seen him since then and he doesn't really. Me mal.
Glad to hear my card is on the way, the camera's internal memory is so tiny! And my other SD card has pictures on it, and this new camera has to format it, so I would loose the pictures. It's all good though, I can wait haha.
Now, onto news about everything,but I'm low on time so it'll have to be quick. It snowed here for a bit yesterday but it didn't stick, but now it's REALLY cold. Stephen also sent me a Vneck sweater so I am putting it to good use! I am getting used to teaching in spanish so I'm not nervouse before each lesson, haha. I've learned commands as well so I get to tell people what to do now. Elder Zarian and Elder Cottle, 2 of the 4 that are going to Peru left Monday to go to the Peru MTC. The other two haven't left because they haven't gotten there Visas. Elder Zarian was our District leader and so he had to be replaced. No it's not me, not yet atleast, but Elder Millerberg, one of my roomies, is now it. Our Zone Leaders whent out into the field as well, so we have 2 new ones there as well. I've learned so much more, and have so many spiritual experiences, it's crazy! Pauline Renfroe and Brittany Riley mailed me and so now I have more people to write now. They also gave me sugar so don't worry about sugar anymore, I think I have enough for the MTC and then some, haha.
Dang out of time, well I guess I gotta go! Give Erica a big hug and a kiss for me when you guys get there! And good luck with everything, I know things will get better!
Les amo (I love you) hasta luego!
Elder "Tall Son" "Frijoles" "Winzie" Winslett
