hola madre
just got back from the temple. we did sealings for the first time. that was realy cool. the old guy that was the sealer was realy funny. i think that it's a blessing for older people to be able to work in the temple and stay busy. keep them active and serve. i'll chasen sam for being a bum.
i havn't had a chance to work in the chat rooms yet but i work in the call center every week. it's realy cool. once in a while i talk to some crazy man for a long time about everything that he has questions on. i havn't had anyone accept a missionary visit yet but i'm trying. i'm trying to stay motivated and work out. i'll remember jenni's dedication. i've been riding the excursise bike a few times a week and thats realy good. there not very good bikes but i can get a little bit of a work out. so i asked for a seet shirt last week. i meant to ask for a sweat shirt. i was just typing fast. anyway i'd realy apreciate it if you sent me one. the come thow fountain song, i have in spanish but if you could just get a version that would be similar to the one that was in the hym book in inglish that would be great. oh and if you hapen to be sending me a pacage soon, could you send me that paley tie in my room? some missions alow ties like that and it would be a good tie to trade. tie trading is my hoby now.
i'm still realy happy here at the mtc. we have great speakers come every week and my teachers are byu students that are way cool. i'm friends with both of them. my companion and i get along most of the time and we work well together. once in a while i'll get overwealmed with spanish every few days or so but i feel some progress. there are tons of different tences and it's hard to keep them strait. theres the comand form wich makes no sence at all especialy in the tu and vosotros forms.
i've been keeping a study journal like it talkes about in preach my gospel and it's realy great. i have a small 3 ring binder and i have a section for personal study a section for comp study a section for goals and a section for notes. it realy is great for helping me remember insights and i've been having lots of those here. mom and dad if you don't have study journals, you should get some. it will help you under stand the scriptures even better than you already do.
how sam? love you. lifes good. i'm just realy tired all the time and for some reason i've go insomnia all the time. hope to hear from you soon. elder lariviere
