Anyway Elder Aleman is leaving tomorrow at 6 AM so i got put with Elder Atkinson as a new companion and his old companion got moved to the trio with elder marsh and Elder Hansen. Its been a pretty rough week leadership wise but nothing I can't handle, tell dillon thanks for the CTR ring but... where i'm going its haz lo justo so... ya anyway only 2 1/2 weeks left in the MTC and then I will be hopefully on my way to mexico, most the missionaries going straight to the field in mexico from the MTC are here for about an extra 2 weeks, all visa excitment of course, but it should be a bit easier to get our visas they are about 100 people behind sending missionaries out on Time. Anyway Elder Atkinson and I taught our first progressive investigator together, we actually hit the ground running for never teaching with people other than our first companions. Elder Aleman and I had the same style of teaching roughly, Elder Atkinson and I are quite the opposite, which actually worked well for us as long as we keep up doing what we're supposed to in Comp study etc. I'm sad about Elder Aleman leaveing but also super excited cause he gets to go to peru for 2 weeks before he goes to Bolivia which is awesome. I switched rooms for the second time in the MTC and i have a top bunk again and the first night elder Burdett turned the heat way up so i was doing all sorts of tossing and turning. Anyway, that is pretty much the majority of our week, it seem we're now just starting over on learning things in the MTC, I hear alot about how Elder atkinson thinks we're ready to go help some 'peeps' anyway the weeks go quickly here when you're on task and P-day comes faster than you expect most the time, we live in our class room and sleep in our residence halls, which is kinda strange thats the most foreign place to us in the MTC is our own bedroom... pues i don't have much more to talk about this week hope everyone is doing good!! Oh and btw Ties are the most valuable tradeable objects on the mission, i came in to the MTC with 7 1 being a blue paisley, i did some trading and now i have 12 my blue paisley was traded for an orange one that everyone in the building calls charizard and i've had fifty dollar offers on it, but i love it cause its a burnt orange beautiful color, but yeah ties are our currency and paisleys are like GOLD (hint hint) haha anyway Love you all!!
