Wellllllll howdy folks!
HAPPY LATE FATHERS DAY!!!
Seeing as I just sent an email liek 3 days ago, I
don´t really have many new things to say. Libia got baptized, we had an
awesome conference with our mission president, and other little baby
things. It has been a crazy few weeks but they have been really great. I
am learning sooooo much about everything. I feel like I am just having
so many little experiences that are going to serve a LOT in my future
life. I guess that´s one of the big blessings of being out here. These
are lessons that I can learn here and now or maybe in some other time in
the next 20 years and in much scarier cases. I am so happy to be out
here.
Sometimes this silly thing happens where people
don´t want to be obedient to mission rules (and like super big and
important rules), you sit them down and tell them straight up as a
friend that it can´t keep going and if it does, you are going to tell
the president. They say okay and it won´t happen again, and the they
keep doing it and get really mad at you when you tell President. Then
they do it again and get mad at you. They send you angry text messages
like a 14 year old girl and when you call them to try to talk it out,
they ignore your calls and send more angry messages, talking about how
they "don´t want any drama." It is interesting. I wish that kind of
stuff wouldn´t happen, because it is like a joke. I find strength in the
motto, "Don´t be an idiot."
Last week in one of the conferences with our mission
president and his wife, his wife was talking about some stuff and
totally made a reference to Galaxy Quest, saying, "Never give up. Never
surrender. " I just about fell on the floor laughing (which totally
happens sometimes. my comp makes fun of me.). Our mission president and
his wife are the BOMB.
MUNDIAL EMPEZÓ LA SEMANA PASADA Y VA A SER
TERRIBLE!!! tODO EL MUNDO SE EMBORRACHA Y CASI NADIE NOS ESCUCHA DURANTE
LOS PARTIDOS. En secreto espero que Colombia no gane muchos partidos
para que no estemos en esta vaina más tiempo. Pero, fue super chévere
que pudiéramos ganar el primer partido el otro día. COLOMBIA ERES MI
AMOR. Tengo un anillo de la bandera de Colombia y las personas en la
calle son más receptivas al ver ésto. BOOM
Con mucho amor,
Elmer Brack
