Sup!!!!
So my family didn't write me this week--haha. Oh well, that's alright, I'm over it!!! haha
So that's good that you have been going mas o menus alright, That's terrible that you had to go to the dentist and what not, but that's life as we know it ya know?! Everything has its ups and downs, positive and negative reactions. I'm starting to realize that more and more the longer that I've been out. haha I've been reading certain books that have really helped me fortify my teaching. My Spanish is growing and my vocabulary is.....decent. I can't say good, but decent! haha
So the buenas nuevas.....the old president went home on Saturday, the same day the new president arrived, it was a pretty hectic cambio and the whole mission was full of anxiety! But that's how life is when there are drastic changes.
My new compañon-Elder Yañez: He is awesome and the third comp that I have had from Argentina, so I'm used to the ll that sounds like sh. If there's a question about that just ask anyone that speaks Spanish, and they can help you out. He's from Salta. He basically told me that it is a city that is encircled by mountains, and it is very toristico and the best place in Argentina....figures. I always say that I love my city town and people too...but I think that I believe him, given the description that he gave me! haha
My new area- I'm in Talara, It's one of the richer places that I have seen, It's because there is petroleo here, and the people actually have work! I'm in a place called Negreiros. It's about 15 minutes east of Talara and its nothing but dirt. I've seen 3-4 arbols (trees) the whole time! haha but that's chill. The people here are also much tougher to teach and find, but my companion has no problem telling them that they are confused! haha We are going to teach a little bit more harder and firmer...
Basically I'm doing good here and hope that you're doing good.
Yours Truly,
Elder Pinegar
