hey guys so this is my second attempt at emailing you! the 1st one didnt go so well. so i am having a blast here! its soo awesome to see the lord's hand in motion in the lives of so many people. so i am finnaly relizing that i can really email everyone at once....though i am going to try. wasnt Gen. conf. amazing?! i loved all the talks and got a lot from them. although i dont know if that was because i was here or because i was awake...i dont think either hurt. oh and aunt mary i didnt get to go to any of the sessions none of us got to but i did get to go last year with aunt heather and uncle john. so i REALLY loved pres. eyering's talk when he was talking about being prepared to give blessigns. i think it was in the preisthood session, but i thought it was cool how that was something that i have tried to do/have/be ready for since i was ordained! i especailly loved elder packer's and elder holland's talks. both were unexpected but extremely powerful. i love you guys so much. so i cant remember who wrote it--oh yeah it was kathy, but any ways yes, have heard a VERY little about the disaters in the pacific. we dont really get to know a whole lot about the outside world. the running joke for my district is that the second coming could happen and we would hear a world about it til we got to the airport. but so i am having fun telling elders how i only have one week left. "so how many weeks you got left?....oh sorry to hear that , well you will survive it ...(maybe)" i really dont know why every hatesd the MTC i LOVE it here! the spirit is SOOOO strong and its so much fun. before i forget i think i finally know why the newbies are treated as well as they are---they know the happenings of the outside world. so i leave in 6 days-ish for the Dominican MTC. i have to report to the travel office at 3AM-- quick before i forget, i get to call you mom...and dad i think...i know that i get to make at least one call. but i have no idea when i get to make the call so mom you can skip the gym on the 15th ...i give you permission=) oh yeah so i love all of you for the letters that you have been sending, not that i dont love those of you who havent sent me one but, anyway if you have a package for me or that you were going to send me wait to send it until i make it to the DR MTC, because i dont think they will forward packages, they will forward the mail for a week or so but i think the packages go up for the grabs. so i am sure that by now Rene has begun to blame things on me... and i think thats ok because for once she might be right...yes you heard me rene, for ONCE, as in one time =), i dont know to what extent the things going good or bad is my fault but feel free to blame them on me. [{(ok mom this is for you. i dont know when or if i should email you the essays, or when i am going to find the time to write them. ok before you throw your head back and sigh....though by now you have already done so...i only got to read your letter lastnight. so take that for what its worth. but look on the bright side, you know that i am still the same little boy that you gave to the lord for two years, and yes i would venture to say the same little boy, because you have done that good a job at raising me. i know that it might makle you cry and eys i amn getting a smile from it but i an crying too, i ma learning SOO much here andi have no intention of stopping. hey for once i can honestly answer the question "dont you think that you could have used your time better and written the essyas i asked you to?" a resounding "no" and smile....or at least say that i am giving it my best try to use all my time effectively. dont wory too much it is important and i am sure that i will be given the time that i need to write them. i do however need that last prompt if i am to do so. oh my tribal num is: 21862. i dont know how legit it is because i am now 'old' and therefore might need another one. but that is what i have. oh and PS: share this with dad he deserves the credit too. for both the raisign and procrastination methods...sorry but using time to do something worht while and at the same time not doing somethign else is something you exceel at.)}] i love you guys soo much but now i have to go! we are only SUPPOSED to go and write emails and letters on Pday and for us here in the Provo MTC that is friday, dont know if it will change when we get to the DR MTC. so i am trying to be obediant and follow the rules, if you dont get a letter or arent mentioned thats why...though i might be tempted to write one while i have "extra" time. oh and Uncle Sam: thanks SOO much for the package. i might be in the lead for the most letters but i dont know --havent counted--i didnt even know we were having a contest until soemone said i might be in the lead or a close second. ok got to go but i want you, ALL of you to know how much i love you and that i do pray for you guys everyday.
