Hello, lovelies! From now on, I will be emailing on Tuesdays... Until they have another crazy holiday, which seems to happen terribly often. Fire crackers basically every other night. They love to celebrate here, Im coming to find. Especially in Huancayo. Alcohol is a big part of their culture too, so I think Ive got my work cut out for me there.We just got a new wave of missionaries that came in, so we get to make fun of their spanish. For some odd reason, a common mistake is saying "I am" instead of "this is", because Ive had someone tell me they are a book of mormon a few times now. Also, the word for sins is "pecados" and the word for fish is "pescados". Long story short, apparently one of the newbies accidently basically said "I am Jesus Christ, and I paid for your fish!".
(I finally discovered how to make quotation marks!)
I have roughly 2 and a half more weeks here at the CCM. Im starting to love it here, though. I havent been homesick yet, but Im really missing a lot of music. Im super excited to get out into the field and do some real work, though.
We went to ______ today, which is a little three story supermarket. We mainly bought food, because we get super hungry in between meals and before bed.
(Can you spot the photo bomber?)
I love you all so much!
Keep me posted!
Much love!
Elder Alexander
