Life Keeps on Going

There is nothing quite like being a missionary. There are great and wonderful time and then there are frustrating times. But all in all I think it is worth it. I don't know Spanish, but I know that I will learn it one of these days. I have also managed to come up with something to say during lessons and no one has looked at me too confused yet. I was told once that I talk to fast, I guess that is a talent that I have in both English and Spanish. Yay me! :) Haha
I don't think I have ever been so happy to go to bed at 10:30 in my life. By the time 10:30 rolls around I am so ready for sleep. And amazingly enough when the alarm goes off at 6:30 I hope right out of bed. The thirty minutes of exercise does seem to last an eternity though. I am also still like half a sleep during it, but it does seem to be going a little faster than it did at first. I miss the good ole days of the MTC where we would just play volleyball everyday. I don't think a volleyball game would last very long with just me and my companion.
So before my mission I used to hate studying right? I think anyone who knew me before probably knew at least that. I remember also talking about how I didn't study and how not studying was part of my Lean strategy for life in general. I have changed my mind, I LOVE study time! It is one of the best part of the days. We study for four hours a day, and it usually flies by! I like personal study time the best and the opportunity it gives me to read the Book of Mormon especially and learn things I never realized. It is truly and amazing and inspired book. Also, lets me honest if I am going to be teaching other especially in a different language like Spanish I need to know so much more than I already know.
I hope everything is going great back in Cache Valley or wherever you are! And whoever you are! I would love to hear from just about anyone! I love checking the mailbox everyday, but it is even better when there is mail in the mailbox! God knows and loves us all. I know this.
