Hola everyone!
So three weeks has flown by! iIt feels like I just got here. Im finally used to everything that goes on here; theres a lot. Im learning so much its ridiculous. Like last night a couple elders locked themselves out of their room so I learned how to get into a locked room using nothing but an envelope, dental floss, and a vacuum cord. Im not even joking. It was straight up McGiver. But im alos learning so much about the gospel. One of my roomates, Elder Rupp knows everything gospel related so i just ask him weird questions all day about stuff that is church related and he knows...like the other day i was wondering about Kolob so we had an hour discussion about it and now I know a lot more. its way cool.
I have a lot I want to cover and only a little time so here we go.
Mom- You asked about if i got into the choir. Im very upset about it. They were putting together a special choir to go to the priesthood session of conference coming up and when i went to fill out the paperwork for it, there was all these questions about highschool choir and how many years you have been singing and special awards and all this lame crap. I was mad about it so i put down that my name was elder potter, i had attended hogwarts for 4 years and i was headboy in my 4th year. also, I had outstanding results on my OWLS as well. i thought it was funny...until this morning when a few other elders got a notice saying they got in when they didnt ever sing in any choir. i was pissed. i could have gotten in. but i guess thats what i get...Thanks for finally sending the package with some of the stuff i needed. i havent gotten anything except those two that sarah and kim sent me a while back and im tired of wandering the halls at night looking for handouts of food from the other elders. i hope theres some food in there. Im glad to hear the flower shop is doing well, but im also glad i gert to miss putting up the trees. have fun dad. Thanks for the update on the ring ceremony. im glad coach didnt make me sound bad haha. if you havent already, send all that stuff you said you got from it, except the dvd.
Dad-Send me the top 25 listing for college football. im dying here. also get me president smiths address. I want to write him. Make sure as well that coach McCarron is being forwarded these emails, and mention to him on the email that he needs to email me on this account about how the team is looking. His email is on the school website under athletics. My comp wanted me to tell you that he is a huge dallas fan, but i told him it didnt make up for the fact that he likes michigan and the yankees. but its a start.
I figured out a few other things i want. I want my fav blue batman shirt. some guy down the hall wears a batman shirt a lot and he thinks hes the coolest. hes not even a true batman fan, and i want to drop kick him in the face when he wears it. but i like him other than that. alos i want that picture of me when im young starring up at the giant cristus in salt lake, as well as the pic kim took of me at socals where im looking up at dad leaning against the wall. pretty please.
So last week was way exciting for a bunch of districts, mine included. A travel plan is very comparable to willy wonkas golden ticket. or early paroll, you pick. a district that has really helped me and my comp out are leaving, but because they are going to mexico, its only natural their visas havent cleared so they got tempoarily reloacted to places like portland, san bernadino, arizona, and salt lake. i will probably get relocated untill mine clears, but if its salt lake im going to hang myself. portland would be legit. it only lasts usually like maybe one transfer if that. so im not worried about it.
Somebody get me dahlins address. ive been waiting for a letter but i got nothing so far. alos nicks if you can (im speaking to the general public)
So i think thats everything i wanted to cover. The TRC (teaching resource center) went extremely well this week. I learned a lot of spanish and can almost understand just about everything my teacher says as long as its gospel related. i know that doesnt sound good but ive only been here three weeks, i think its awesome. I was slightly dissapointed with this weeks letters. i wrote a lot last week and didnt get a reply from a lot of them. but if you did write me im very thankful for that. Letters are a missionaries life blood. Keep them coming por favor.
Sierra is not keeping me udated on track enough. im going into track related withdrawls. i miss it soooo much. also how are my babies doing? (the stang and the vette) please take good care of my car sierra. Make sure you drive the vette at leat once a week dad, i was and it was running great.
Dad- Im out of time so i will hand write you instead of another email.
I love all of you. till next week!
