So this week went
well.
Miss you lots guys.
We arrived in Singapore
about 2 hours ago, we are here for zone conference. We will be heading back on
Wednesday.
Elder Blackwelder is
from a small town near Cincinnati Ohio. He has been out just over a year now. He’s
way gung-ho, way game for local food (he just eats more of the sketchier
dishes, that’s why he gets sick).
It wasn’t the first
snake I have eaten but was the first time I have cooked it. It tastes like
really gamey chicken/fish sort of.
The Christmas tree
sounds nice. I set up my nativity set you sent me earlier this week,
Yes, I’ll send you a
letter Mom.
Also, tell Brother
Waters I’m interested in that job, as in I want it. Still not quite sure if I
want to extend, President Mains has asked us to talk to him 3 months before our
date if we want to extend, so I’ll have to figure that out in the next 2
months. When I get home, I figure I’ll just work non-stop and when I’m not
working I’ll be getting my math skills re sharpened so I can pass that test at SFCC
and get my AA (and do anything else I need to). Then transfer to wherever. The
2 main things I got to do fast is that I got to get money and I got to get out
(as into school). If I don’t I’ll probably just vegetate and end up living in
the root cellar..... That’s about all
the planning I’ve done.
Kenneth wasn’t able
to be baptized this week because of the accident (just delayed until next week)
but Eugenia was. Her whole family was able to come, it was pretty cool.
Faska is doing well,
I think he will meet his date.
Michael went back to
his ship this week. He took a Book of Mormon and said he would read it though.
Sibu Jaya is great.
I might only have 1 week left, next week being transfers. If I leave I’m really
going to miss it. I really hope they don’t whitewash the area.
Time is weird, it’s
slow and then fast all at once. The more you try to slow it down the faster it
goes. Also, if you zip about it ends up speeding up. So the best plan therefore
is to flow with it, staying busy up until the point where you’re almost
rushing. That’s the best. You get back to the house and you can’t really
remember without really trying to think about it what you did that morning or
exactly who all you visited. You just feel accomplished, not stressed at all,
very nice.
5 minutes left.
Don’t have much time or a way to send pictures, sorry.
Anyway, love you
guys,
Sincerely
Elder Halpin
