And it Begins

Hola Everyone!

My 2-year mission has begun! I arrived last Wednesday to the MTC (Missionary Training Center) in Provo. Everything is going great these first few days! My companion and roommates are awesome, the food is great, and the Español is coming along very nicely.

This one will be a bit short since I have already used most of my email hour answering my mom's endless questions (thanks mom), but next week will definitely be a bit more detailed. My P-day will be Saturday for the duration of my time in the MTC, so If you want to email me personally, I will most likely be on around 8:30 AM every Saturday morning.

As soon as I figure out how to upload pictures to these MTC computers I will send some pictures from my activities and my stay.

I think I hit the jackpot with my district here, as all of us get a long super well. Our teacher is great, even though she only speaks Spanish to us for the whole immersion thing. We taught our first "investigator" yesterday, but he was really just an actor that no-one told us was an actor so we could practice our lessons in Español and be super nervous at the same time . 

Everyone makes fun of the way I say Nevada because apparently it's not Nev-aw-duh, its Nev-ah-duh, but I refuse to conform myself to a bunch of northerner-speak.

Anyway, these first few days have been really amazing for me and I can't wait to see what the next six weeks holds. Adios everybody, be back next semana.
