MTC week #2

Doug's District in Provo

MTC life is still grandiose as usual. Oh hey. cool thing happened. So my district got asked to usher for the fireside last night... kinda weird cause we've only been here for a week. So I'm pumped cause ushers get like the best seats ever. right up front in the bleachers, all kinds of leg room, and on this particular night... a direct line of eye contact to Elder Scott. INTENSE. He didn't use a teleprompter or write any of his talk out, he just had a few sheets of paper with some pictures of the slides he used and just talked for like 45 minutes. So baller status. Then at precisely 7:38, April 19, 2011, He drops the bomb... not even just a regular bomb... like an ultimate nuke star trek ion cannon laser beam bomb. He just stops for a second and says (looking dead at me, i swear) "how many of you are learning a foreign language?" I raise my hand with everybody and then he says,"I'm going to exercise some of my authority as an Apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, holding all the keys of his church, and envoke upon each of you the blessing of the gift of tongues." Elder Dreiling (who's also teaching me how to Jimmer in gym everyday) and I about fainted from sheer intense, glorious awesome.So riddle me this, I've eaten like i've never eaten before in this place (consequence of having a samoan constantly forcing me to eat "like i was a samoan") and somehow i've still lost eight pounds. so the bad news is I'm gonna hit the ground in peru (if i ever get my visa) and straight up blow away into the sea. And then they're gonna have to scrammble the coast guard or whatever peruvian equivallent they have there, but as Christy can attest the quality of peruvian aviation is somewhat lacking, so then the helicopter will probably crash. so then they have to scrammble their navy for that... and this starts a whole international incident when i'm plucked out of the water by a foreign military ship. And that just sounds inconvenient for everyone. So I hope that doesn't happen. Might though.

Anyways... That's what happened here in the happiest place on earth last night. woo. so can someone get me trent's address already? also ask casey if he's getting any letters from me. cause I'm still waitng on him to get me addresses for like... everyone i know in kaysville. cause his is the only one i have.Try to get like Alex, Trent, Thomas, Josh W., and Mal's. Pretty sure some of
them think I forgot them cause I'm not writing them. but I just have no addresses.

Love you guys.

do good things.
