Its been a whole month. I can hardly believe it!
So how did everyone like general conference? I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Pretty good stuff. A few of my favorites were both Utchdorfs talks, Richard G. Scott's, Holland's, all of President Monsons of course, Eyering's talk in the second saturday session i think, and a bunch of the 70 guys were way good. If you didnt get to watch it, its already up on LDS.org.
Well conference made the weekend fly by. Usually the weekend goes slower because we dont recieve dear elders saturday or sunday. In fact, if you wait till after friday morning to dearelder me, i wont get it till monday night after i have already hand written a million letters, so dont procrastinate. Mom, i dont waste time reading emails because i just print them off. it only takes like 2 seconds of my time off, so dad and whoever else wants to can write me as long an email as they want that i will be able to read every monday morning! Do it! also dearelder makes the mtc world go round, so dont forget to write using that also.
This week didnt go as well as i was hoping, but it was good none the less. The gym is finally open, and they have a 160 meter square track on the third floor, so ive been running a lot (I hope your reading McCarron). other than that, i quickly found out that everyone from utah, regardless if they are 5'4" and whiter than me, played basketball in high school. i did not.... but i still like to play and can keep up pretty good. Other physical activites worthy of note include the residence hall olympics. if your wondering, yes i instigated them. They started last week when the rowdy district left and nights before bed got boring. so what started as random events such as wrestling, pull up/ push up competions have now escalated into a full blown production. I come up with random events such as asian push up contest, exercise band high jump (my personal fav.) and crab walk races around the halls. The asian push up one is pretty cool. My district leader is Elder Chong from washington, who is 5'4", 145, and gives me a run for my money every time on high jump. we simply see how many push ups we can do with him sitting on our backs. All of these events bring more joy into my life than i thinnk anyone will ever realize.
I got the stewarts package this morning! It is freaking sweet. That shirt is amazing, and the batman bear is the coolest thing ever. My district was jealous about all the cool thinnggs inside too. Mom, Im pretty much set on food for a while so you dont have to worry about that for a few weeks, but if you could please send my patriaichal blessing that would be great. i forgot it, and i can have it copied and resized here and then i wwill send it back. its in the top door of my nigh stand. That Birchard kid better email me or wirte me pretty quick or we are going to have a serious issue.
So tonight we are moving classrooms. Im way stoked about it. We are moving to a room twice the size of our class now, with all brand new stuff. It has a fat wide screen computer monitor, that is directly under a brand new 40 inch sony high def flat panel tv that is hook up as a dual monitor to the computer right below, so you can move stuff for the computer screen onto the tv screen with the mouse. its legit. there is also ttwo cameras in the room. thats why we are being moved. a few districts in our zone have been choseen to be recorded while taught so that the mtc education board and a few of the 70 and a few of the 12 apostoles can watch us and improve on the way they teach us. When they told me that, my first thought was "well class is going to be a lot more boring now" haha. but its should keep me a little more focused.
The rumor is Bama lost. this is awesomee. That means Ohio state moves into number 1? Im already calling it: National championnship is Oregon and Ohio state, and Ohio state wins.
Dad, any word from the canadians yet? I have a feeling me and you will share mutaul feelings troward the coutries are are supposed to be living in coming up here pretty quick.
Spanish is going reallly great. In line at dinner the other night i had a conversaion with a native mexican who was learning english to serve in the states. he was talking to me in english and i was respondding in spanish. it was pretty cool. Im getting faster and dont have to think about what i want to say as much anymore.
Well my time is running out. I wiill try and get lots of letters out today. I love you guys. Venga lo que venga, disfrutalo.
Love, Elder Kitterman
