Hey everyone! Sooooo week 2 done! This week was a lot better than the the first week, just because im finally getting a feel for the crazy schedule. I have been asked by some people what my schedule is, so here goes. everyday we wake up at 6 to get a hot shower and not wait in line. breakfast is at 7, thats usually not great. then its usually to class for gospel/language. we have about 6 hours each day of that, and then at least one hour of personal study, one hour of companion study, and a few hours of MDT (missionary directed time) where we can do what we choose as long as it is productive to our purpose as missionaries. Elder Moser and I usually study spanish or teach lessons to other elders. lunch is at 11:30 every day, we have gym at different times each day for a little less than an hour. dinner at 5:30, and then back to the halls at 9:30. then we mess around till lights out at 10:30. i can never fall asleep till later cause my mind goes over everything we did that day and its a lot. im always tired but im getting used to it. the work is going great, and the spanish is coming, slowly but surely.
MOM!!! A miracle has happened! it came in the form of a chicken pox shot. haha the immunizations lady had one random one in her fridge that she said she would give me, so i got it. it was 80 bucks, but i paid for it myself (your welcome dad).
The guys that run the MTC gym area told me and elder badger that we cant bring our own running equipment out to the field, so no more resistence workouts. we were pissed. i guess soccer it is... one of the elders in our zone sprained his ankle. dont worry, it wasnt my fault this time. they tell us not to play competetively...ya right. it was district on district and we were winning. so naturally someone got hurt.
Thanks to Kim and Sarah for the pakages! Ya i was laughing after i said to send healthier things and then got those the next day, but its all good. i shared! so i have a lot of people to write but i swear i will get to them all! thanks everyone for the dear elders. i got several a day and i love it! some of the other elders get jealous, but what ev. im loved.
So Im on the top bunk in my room and the other night, i think i was slepp walking, cause i barely remember moving around and then slamming onto the floor. i tried to roll out of bed like i was next to the ground and fell all the way down. My comp woke up and was like "what the heck elder?!" I didnt know what was ggooiing on so i just said "im good", got a drink and went back to bed. I did something else really cool at gym the other day too. it was before elder badger and i were told no outside equipment, so we has the running band, which is a very long bungie cord you attach around your waist. it streches rreally far but is wrapped around by fabric like material, so it only goes so far before it catches and wont go any firther. me and another elder had the bright idea to face eachother while strapped in and back up till it was streched all the way, then we ran at ecahother full speed and passed one another barely. so now we are running away from eachother at more than top speed with a cord attached to each of our backs. it cuaght and we both got yanked hard back onto the ground. i had a light bruise across my stomach for a while buts its gone. it was awesome...it made me feel like i was back home with kyle nick and dahlin. Dahlin would have thought up the idea, Nick would have told us exactly how to do it, and me and kyle would have executed perfectly...
Me and elder moser had a 5 minute message we had to share with a member of our branchh president. it was to see how our teaching was coming along, and all we had time to do was get to know him and get a return appointment. he is a tough guy when it comes to teaching. he was pretending to be a guy going to work on the bus and we had to contact him. all thhee other guys on our district couldnt get a return appointment, but elder moser and i did! it was way sweet.
Congrats to Brendy on the engagment! wanna know how i know? My teacher is Dallin West from Gilbert, who is a friend of Brendy and Aaron. He told me haha.
A lot of people have been asking me questions...i cant really think of them right now and i only have a little bit of time left, so just know that if you dear eldered me before friday this past week, i will be writing you and answering your questions in my letter. Mom, can you send me my rcc track sweat shirt? we are up before the sun on service days andd its getting cold.
Well my time is almost up. I love you guys and hope to hear from everyone this week! My letters will be puut in the mail today.
Elder Kitterman
