Week number... no se... 3? 2.7?

Week number... no se... 3? 2.7?  Oh well!
 
We sit around a ton.
 
Yup that's it...
 
Oh ya then we learn a ton!!!! We have a different schedule every day but the schedule is the same each week. So like mondays are the same and what not. We have three square giant meals a day. I get whatever looks good, a salad, and a desert or just chocolate milk. two cups of water and a fork knife and spoon. Sound exciting yet? :-) Its really not that much diffeent from the cannon and a byu dorm lifestyle wise. We have gym everyday excpet today thursday (p-day) and sundays. We have gym after meals and it varies on what time of day. We have class which is a mix of language leanring with a teacher and we have it for three hours straight. We split the hours up by language learning and progressive investigator learning and MTC/spiritual learning. The teachers are great and we laugh and learn and its way fun. we also have at least two hours a day of personal study which is our time to study in english any topic and i have used it for Book of Mormon reading and reviewing for lessons. Something one of the teachers said that sums up all the studying we do. The more we are focused on the purpose as missionaries and how we can help our investigator the studying will be guided. In other words as I study for myself-ish, it is ultimately for the investigator. Its like a double inspiration, I learn and grow in my life while I get to apply the same principles for the people I want to learn and grow in their lives. Its good. Oh ya and we have a Language study hour which is our own study of the lang and then an hour at the TALL lab that is computer program with studying the language stuff.
 
So this week Elder Stephen Hallstrom of the 70 spoke to us and it was great. He talked about becoming the missionary that we can be and letting a mission really be the best thing in our lives. It was great and his wife spoke about exact obedience and it was grand. All good stuff! Someone spoke on Sunday and it was good too, but i don´t remeber who. I am sure it was good. On tuesday at choir we sang precious savior its a great song.
 
Not so great news: two elders from our zone left yesterday. Its sad but true.
 
Well friends and family ciao and write if you have any questions! My goal is to write back anyone who writes me!
 
PS I see missionaries and random ppl I know everywhere its fun
 
with love and prayers,
Hermana O
