Sorry mom, I dont´t mean to send so little, but im just a terrible typer. Im too slow lol.
so far the CCM is awesome. It´s a roller coaster ride of all kinds of emotions. Everyday I wake up and get ready. I have breakfast which isn´t always kickn. After breakfast we study for about an hour personally. After we have instruction and class till Lunch time. during instruction, our have a teacher and he speaks 95% of the time in spanish. His name is Hermano Gutierez. He´s a funny man and a good teacher. I still struggle at times to understand and respond in spanish, but its getting better. Lunch is always the best meal. After the lunch we go back to class to study language for about another hour and then we have gym. Gym is awsome. Im either playing basketball or volleyball. My skills are increasing lol. After that we have TALL. TALL is another language study on the computer. A program used by every missionary learning a language. After tall we have daily planning and a little more study time. After that is Dinner. Dinner is pretty bomb too. Especially Tuesdays, because that pizza night! COSTCO PIZZA!! After dinner we go to night class. We are taught by two teachers, Hermano Murillo y Hermano Polo. Oh, durring our classes sometimes is when we teach investigators. Those are going a lot better by the way. After class we head home and have a little personal time and go to bed at about 10:30. I stay up a little longer to read the Book of Mormon. I stared reading again last week and Im half way done. I've met and and became friends with Elder Brinkerhoff. He went to D. Hills. BOO lol. I also forgot to tell you David Te'o daughter is here too. And manti's sister was here too, but she left my second week. Couple Laie Boyz here too haha. As fun as the CCM has been, Im ready to get out of here. Love you mom, hope this was enough to give you a better idea of my life here in the CCM. Spirutually, I've never felt more happy. Because of the constant trials and learning curves, Ive have to depend on the lord a lot more. And as usual, he never lets me down. With a mixture of constant scripture study, fasting , and prayer, Ive been able to deal with these learniong curves a lot better than when I first started off with. Love you lots mom. I'll send some more pics next Wednesday.
