Hey family,
I think I already sent you my mass email so I will focus this one more on the specifics haha... Soren you wanted me to start pranking but little did you know that my dorm was already pranking me. they were putting bottles under my bed for the past two weeks, and my mattress was starting to get lumpy, also strangely they prayed for comfy beds so I dont know what they were thinking. Also, I removed the slats out of someone´s bed so that when they go to lay down, the bed falls through. praknked enough? no! We also wad up paper towels and throw them into the stalls while people are using the behtroom (only to people in out dorm) and during shower, we throw foolofas across the hall and play Hot potato. Life is so much fun here, and I am so excited thatI will be out in the field in 5 days!!!!! did you know that ¨w¨ is the only letter in the english language whose name isn´t spelled with itself ex: ay bee cee dee ee ef gee ach I,........ you get the point... Also During the proseletysing activity on saturday, I had a great expirience: we were walking down the street, and I saw this guy cleaning the rust off his chair in his shop. SO I go up to teach him in my broken spanish, and ended up sharing my testimony of the book of Mormon. And I gave him a BOM and he said that he would read it!!! I know now that the BOM is more than just a history of the people of the Amerincas, it is prophetic writing, scripture that is directly from God, our Heavenly Father. I know that If you read the BOM every day, you will be able to have the Holy ghost in your life. I know that President Thomas S Monson told us to read it daily for a reason, because it is the most correct book. Cool thing that I found in my scritpture reading: in Jarom, (which is like a skip over chapter before the mish), In verse 11 it says "persuading them to look forward onto the Messiah and believe in him to come as though he already was" I think that we can apply that in our lives as well, we should look forward to the second comming as if it was tomorrow.
I am making great friends, with my district and with the people going to Lima West.
I get along with everyone and our district is super united. The MTC can wear on me at times, because it is the same thing every day at the same time...My instructors are both great, Hma Mujica is a convert at age 18, and is super sassy. Hmo Zeleyaran is super nice and very Christ like. Both are return missionaries, and Hmo Zeleyaran is getting married in January. Both are local.
My exercize is a little spotty at times but I´m trying to keep to it.
Love you all and pictures are following in the next email.

So this P day we got bored and so we decided to take pictures of us doing stuff while reading the BOM but they are going to have to wait until next week because I am out of time..
