Well I have completed about three weeks in the MTC. Pretty weird feeling. I was actually supposed to leave tomorrow, but...well visa fun. It's okay! I'm not as much down about not being to get there, but what I'm really anxious for is to start teaching. Today we've had a ton of Christmas stuff gone on. This morning we had continental breakfast, followed by a devotional. Russel M. Nelson of the quorum of the twelve apostles came to speak to us. His talk was incredible. They care about us so much. He brought up the shooting that happened last week and one particular little girl. He cried as he talked about her and her family. Apparently her dad was interviewed or something on TV. He said he was comforted knowing she was with her Heavenly Father now. I'm not sure the exact details of what he said, but I am so happy that we have the knowledge of the Plan of Salvation.
On to a brighter topic, Christmas is pretty swell here. We actually had an edible lunch with cheesecake as the dessert! I love cheesecake so it was a pretty big deal. We still have another devotional tonight so I'm looking forward to that. My spanish is still continuing to grow. I can speak completely in Spanish which is awesome. Sometimes it is pretty simplified because my vocabulary is still growing. Conjugations still stink. It's pretty disheartening sometimes. Oh look I mastered Future tense! Oh well here's conditional....sweet now preterite....now imperfect....next using haber...haha it isn't that bad. We actually have 4 teachers now so we can be taught round the clock. Hermano Wald, Law, Jaen, y Osuna. Hermanos Jaen y Osuna son de Mexico! Which is pretty cool, I was able to tell them how I used to live in Toluca. They both know it very well surprisingly.
