This letter was written to Mom and me. I took some things out, so it might not make sense in some parts, but I wanted to include a week three letter. (Some family members have complained, CRYSTAL!) HAHA
so i just go some letters from you... not even five mins ago so i will read them when i am doing laundry :) ummm... oh i got your gift, well i appreciate it but it was broken and smelled like really really really REALLY old ladies... so it just went right into the trash... but thanks :) hmmm lets see what is there to tell you hmm, well the Elders in my zone that arrived when we did got to leave for their mission yesterday and today, sad day but they were only English speaking but they will be missed on the v-ball court. with the money you gave me i bought a watch which i love because it is pink but it is way way way too big!! but is ok, i also bought this really nice binder that i can use, thats what everyone is doing hence why i decided to do it, and it looks so nice and it is all organized and everything :) and so i can send home the notebook i was using so you can have my notes, also i need to send home some of my letters soon, i didn't realize how many i have and I'm happy that i am getting them they make me happy :) so the sisters from my mission wrote me YAY!! and they also sent the pass a long cards that are for the ASL branch! and the Christmas pictures of them i really enjoyed this it ment alot. me that i can see who i will be with and that there is work for me to do :) hmmm the food here does not seem to be getting better... at ALL, hmm Ive lost about five pounds since coming, and the showers, some are way tooooo hot that you cant even shower cause they are too hot, or they are cold and wont turn hot, so showers are not always the best, but on occasion i can get one that is perfect! i have tons of pictures for you..... once you send me the memory card i can send this one!!! i have Christmas, temple walks, messing around at night! sandies package... so yep... umm I'm teaching two investigators right now (they are really just my teachers) and i am loving it, i have seen and felt the experience of when the holy ghost uses me as a tool to get across to the investigator, scriptures will pop into my mind that apply i can explain doctrine very clear and never the same way, i really cannot wait to get out into the feild and start working. Last night elder Walker came from the presidency of the 70, he is over all of the temples in the world, he said that we have 136 temples now and that Monson has announced since becoming the prophet 29 temples that is amazing how we have so many, it brings joy into my heart, but Elder Walker talked about the 10 things missionaries need to do so they can have a good mission, i will send all of them later but thats what was talked about. bednar talked about the character of Christ and how we need to turn outward and help others when we are turning inwards and only thinking of our self's, Christ shows this all of his life, its amazing! I'm poor companion sister cardita is getting sick, i feel so bad for her that she is,and praying that i wont get sick too. we have so much fun together, last night her and sister querry were having farting contests, of farting under each others blankets before we went to bed, it was a hoot... and the Elders in my district, well are all do close we talk about everything, and its nice to know that if any of us need a blessing they can give us one right away without delay, in fact a few of them carry oil so they can. i love reading what is happening in the family even if its about you laughing and cali throwing up and getting on Linda... i laughed too so don't feel so bad. ;) sorry my Christmas e-mail was not long i tried the best i could to write you. today we are getting new elders and sisters i hope Jon comes today so i can see him. oh and if you want to see who my teachers are.. go to lds.org
love
Sister Longan
