TRANSFERED! I am not gonna lie, I was pretty excited to get out of my sceond area even though it is progressing so much. I did not want to hit 1 year in my second area. You guys would all be freakin jealous if you saw my area. It is called Vallehermoso. It is one of the two area's in Negros Oriental. I think that President Lopez likes to keep me as far away from him as possible. Dad, I am sorry that you are stuck in Carlsbad because I live on the North Shore. It really does look exactly like the north shore. Well, minus the waves and all the houses are made of bamboo. The area is just one road that goes right along the beach and on the other side is just a huge mountain range. So I get to go hiking every day which is cool because I do no exercise here. If you guys can believe that. My new companion is Elder De Guzman who is another Filipino that speaks no English. He is still pretty new to the mission but he is doing pretty well. Our house id pretty old and shotty but our church is rad. The Branch is not the strongest though. We had 60 people at church on Sunday so I have some work to do here. On Sunday I taught Sunday school, gospel principles, and spoke in Sacrament while my companion conducted. That's only because our Branch Presidents wife was in labor. But I will try to take some pictures of this place for you guys. We have a baptism coming up on Saturday but what I am excited about are the two families that we are teaching. I love family baptisms. I swear I had a bunch of stuff to tell you guys but I guess I forgot it all... I do have zone conference this Thursday and because my area is so far away I have to go to bacolod and stay in a hotel Wednesday night. Hopefully I remember how to speak Ilonggo! Oh yeah, this area is pure Cebuano, like straight up deep Cebuano. And they can't understand Illonggo at all here. I don't know why there are two completely different languages only like 2 hours away from each other but I guess thats just how Filipino's do it. As for the food here...fish. Nothing else. Rice and fish every day. You guys probably think of fish like tuna, salmon, those are like whales here. The crap I eat is like this size of my finger. But, Ill survive. haha Can't wait for the next package! haha Anyways, I love you guys and I am stoked that your house is getting all pimped out. I think I forgot how to use a cell phone. Oh well. I love you guys and miss you so much. The Church is true.
