Yo, Elder, Pull Over I Can't Hold It In Until We Get Home. I'm Going To Poop My Pants.

Que la que, freaking, ¿qué hay de nuevo? Oh dear, another week gone, what is this? I still think I'm in July, not going to lie. Yo, I should be a poet that rhymes. Wow, look at that! Also, how is it already another week? That's a question for you, not me. Well, well, well, should I share the story of the title or no? Hmmm, let me think about it. So, yesterday was a freaking miracle day. We were like, "Bro, let's go to Barranquitas and visit Miriam because she stopped answering us." She said she was in the hospital taking care of her sister, and we were like, "¿Es eso un embuste o cierto? Déjanos ver." So we went walking in her neighborhood and we yelled at her house, and she came out. And we got good news, great news, but bad news, lol. Basically, one of those breakups that's like, "It's not you, it's me," and you're like, "Bruh, why?" Anyways, she's like, "I really wanna learn and join the church, but my sist...

Christmas Talk

Good morning to all of you. I hope you had a good Christmas day yesterday! Today, I want to talk about Jesus Christ. Obviously, we celebrate Christmas day like yesterday was that day, but why do we celebrate that special day every year? Good to remember the birth of Jesus Christ. Obviously, everyone already knows, but why was Jesus so important? Well, really, Jesus Christ was very important for different reasons. He established his true church on earth and performed many miracles for people, but the reason he is very important is because he is our savior and redeemer. But the most important thing to remember is that he is our mediator. What does that mean? Because this is an important word. This is a story about that. There is a man who owes another man; this is the story. "I can't pay him because I don't have the money to do it," he confessed. “Then,” said the creditor, “we will take your possessions, and you will go to jail. You agreed with that; it was his choice. ...

Bueno, qué la hay que freaking hay! So this week went by fast and was so hectic, tbh. I got so many stories for the homecoming talk in my new area, and I love it. Also, got some pretty insane revelation. I like being a missionary so much. It's so hard but so rewarding. Anyways, let's get it. So Diego came to church yesterday. It was chevere that he came to make 2 sacrament attendances, so he's clear for baptism! (Every time I hear his name, I think of Dora.) lol, lo siento por eso. But Diego's awesome, he's progressing so good! Keep praying for him so he can perseverar hasta el fin! We were doing a call with some referral last night named Ricardo, and it was so awesome. He was so curious about the restoration, and then he's like, "bruh, I need this book," and he went off on how wrong the Bible is because they just took out all the books that are in the apocrypha, and was like, "these books literally been so distorted," and we were like, ...

Sleeping In Bed Bugs For 7 Days

Saludos! Buenas tardes a todos. Gracias por escuchar y escuchando este mensaje. Hoy un dia.  I am sick of writing and adding emails. Writing emails is horrible. Like, you guys have no idea how painful it is to sit at the computer and write an email. So today, I am going to do a voice recording because it will be a lot easier and faster. Then, I won't have to worry about punctuation. I can just stop my sentences and not have to do any capitalization. Let's go! I hate grammar. I'm sorry to my English teacher, but English just sucks in general. I hate it. I'm not going to admit anything, but I might have accidentally copied all the assignments in high school and cheated. But don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I hate English. Fun fact: I actually learned what an adjective and noun were when I was in an RC boat with my trainer. Yeah, I don't know how I graduated high school without knowing English. I just hate English. I don't understand it. I just know how ...

Yo, okay, this week, I am not going to lie, has been the hardest and longest week of my entire mission. It was a long week. So, on Monday, we had a good P-day. Elder Phillips wanted to give me a skin fade, so I let him. That was funny and cool. I had a really bad white tan line because I am white, and the skin part he faded hadn't seen the sun probably ever in my life. There has always been hair there, so... yeah, that was pretty funny. Tuesday was my last day in Arecibo. I bought Melvin a toy Mickey Mouse because he always said he wanted one. Anyways, he took us to lunch, and I gave it to him, and he cried. It felt good that I could make his dreams come true. He told me as a kid that's all he asked for for his birthday and Christmas, and his parents never got one or could afford it, so he never got one. I told him, "You're never too old for your dreams to come true." It was an awesome moment. I am really glad I could do that for him. Then we had an awesome lunch ...
