I Made It!

First off, this keyboard is wack.

I`m well, and I`m writing from the Peru MTC. Things are interesting here. Haven`t really started the whole baptism by fire language immersion, but that will probably be in like an hour. All the teachers have said my Spanish is great, but also they only say that after I use my memorized: Tres años de escuela y mi padre habla con fluencia y me ha enseñado mucho spiel, so thinking of things on the fly is going to be a little more difficult.

My companion is Elder Rojas, from Bolivia. I haven`t really talked to him yet, since we`ve been in different places this whole time. He got in at a normal hour this morning; I arrived at about 2 a.m.

I`m the only white person in the 3 week program, and I know more Spanish than any of the other Gringos. The interesting thing I was thinking about is how that means that I am actually the least prepared of anybody for their language program, which is funny. I feel good.

And... apparently this was only supposed to be a quick, two minute email haha. My first real preparation day will be a week from today.

Hope you guys are doing great!
Elder Child
