"The men here are kind of creepy lol i´ve been hit on by so many men it´s crazy haha, nothing major, but they're like that with every woman! But i think even more to female missionaries, especially because we are wearing nice cloths lol. This one time, a creepy old man was on a bus and we were waiting for another bus at the stop, and the bus stopped by us and i made eye contact with the old man, (first mistake) and then he gave me the 'creepy eyebrow' nod haha it was so creepy cause his jacket was covering his mouth so i could only see his nose and eyes, and oh my gosh, so creepy haha!
It´s crazy that i´m here right now! I still feel like it´s a dream! But i know now that this is where i´m supose to be! the things in this life helps us be where we need to be, so long as we´re doing what we are supose to be doing! I know now that i needed to serve a mission not only for others, but for myself! I have already learned so much here that i most definately would not have learned outside of the mish. I absolutely love it here even though there are rough times especially since i´m here in arg. without knowing spanish... it´s super rough. But i wake up everyday at 6:30 and think to myself how truely lucky i am to be here, in Argentina, and to learn more every minute of every day! it´s crazy how blessed i really am, and i hope that i keep this feeling throughout my mission! when people ask me how i´m doing i always say that i´m doing super bien- porque yo soy una missionara! idk if i told you but we clap at doors, not knock! i thought that was a fun thing! haha also we clapped doors the other day and we found a bunch of new people that actually wanted to hear the gospel!!!! we were so excited! apparently argies are a lot like europeans, and are comfortable in their own traditions and ways- so it´s really hard to get new investigators. But we´re working on it! one of our investigators actually dropped us :( haha ya, sad, but hey, we are here to invite others to listen, even though sometimes we may want to force them haha. my spanish is... coming... haha i´m not sure how different it is right now compared to how it was in the beggining. i hope it´s better but idk. I need to get a little more confident with it!
The work is continuing and i´m just happy to be a part of it! i don´t regret my decision to come at all! i´m a missionary doing the Lords work, therefore, i´m happy! but ya. I love it here! Absolutely love it! oh, idk if i ever told you, my comp and i hug every night, like Joel advised us to, and it really does help our relationship- and me personally 'cause it makes me feel like I'm not alone. We also say that we love each other every night, which may sound cheesy, but it´s nice to hear it from a person... you know?! Anyways, i should probably head out.
Bye! Have a fantastic week!"
