This week was awesome but kind of sad. The advanced group and all of the latinos left today. I never thought I could grow so attached to people I could barely even talk to. I bought two soccer jerseys today because I don't have any clean p day clothes. The language is so hard. It is extremely frustrating, i feel like I am the worst at spanish in the CCM, I spend all of my personal study time trying to learn Spanish, but I still am terrible. But i am doing my best to remain optomistic. It's my companions birthday today so we tried singing him happy birthday to him at lunch and the CCM President told us we couldn't! The rules here are like a jail! My teachers are so caring, one took me out of class to talk to me about learning the language and to not be frustrated. I have never washed my hands or used more hand sanitizer in my life. It is so hot here we take like 3 showers a day. We have the same food every day and its starting to be gross. I can't believe that it has already been 2 weeks its crazy! We are always busy and doing something the time goes by really fast! I ran out of chocolate cinnamon bears this week! I was so sad. I have never heard someone named meggie but its not terrible lol. A peruvian name would be something like Maria, so I dont think they would like that. I think I can get pictures, i have seen others get them. The only things I would really want in a package would be American food! I miss it so much. And maybe some basketball shorts and church socks, and a little fan, it is soooo hot here. I love you all!
Oh and I forgot to tell you we went proselyting on saturday in the lima north mission, where all of the poorer people live, there was stray dogs everywhere and only 1 in 3 houses had roofs. We taught one lesson in a ladys house, she was extremely nice, we taught here about the gospel of christ. I couldnt talk much but i bore my testimony in what was probably really bad spanish, and when we were done she told me that she was extremely glad i bore my testimony and she was proud that i was sacrificing 2 years of my life to be here in peru, she also told me that the spirit will help me with my spanish and to just work hard. All of the people here are so nice and will talk to you. We have 1 hour of physical activity every day so ya haha, I try to reuse my clothes if they dont stink, we have to wear our suits to the temple and when we get back to the ccm even our suits are wet with sweat and it is really nasty. The latinos pulled me into soccer, its crazy how popular it is here.
