Week 96 - Bonbon 4/15/2013

well this week was ok until conference then it was amazing i say ok because we taught 0 lessons this week Monday we had a good meeting with our district leaders then we had a family home evening with some of the members behind our apartment and ate some good food then one of the elders started to have an allergic reaction to the food we ate not good then 2 of the other elders were laughing at him and i just thought to myself how upset i would be with them if i wasn't so worried about the other elder. well finally we got a ride for him to the hospital and the 2 who were joking got what they needed turns out they are allergic too but then me and elder baker had to go to the pharmacy's at night to buy the medicine since the hospital doesn't even keep stock of medicine they make you go out and buy it but it was ok the only bad thing was we were at the hospital until 1 in the morning because we couldn't find the medicine i just remember praying to be able to stay calm and get the things that were asked of me and everything worked out then we came home and got to our apartment around 1:30 and i read from the Book of Mormon then went to bed because Tuesday we had whats called zone training meeting. in that meeting me and elder baker give a training we prepared from the trainings given in zone leaders council so that we can pass on information and also add things that we received as revelation its a really good meeting but very difficult to give with 4 hours of sleep. then we went home and we were invited by the stake to speak at a stake fireside. the fireside was for all the potential missionaries in the stake. it was probably the coolest activity i have ever heard of its what they call a little MTC its a 3 day activity and they have a fireside the first two nights and they have classes throughout the day about teaching skills and everything its so cool and we were invited to be a part of it. we were guest speakers and we also made musical numbers. i really enjoyed the activity and think it would be a great activity for anywhere in the world right now with the burst of missionaries. so that was until Thursday around noon then we went to a baptism in the afternoon and then visited a member after for dinner but tons of people were there so we didn't get to share just eat. then Friday i was dehydrated so i was required to stay inside and rest then Saturday conference and we took pictures of an apartment for the future sister missionaries. then we ate and i now have had diarrhea since Saturday so no work Sunday either life is getting really hard but its ok I'm hoping to have a good week we are going to Lavezares tonight for exchanges and hopefully we will be able to help them out my trainee is actually assigned in this area so ill get to be with him again it'll be fun. well i learned a lot during conference and i got made fun of because my favorite talk was by Elder Cardon they made fun of my because it was about successful marriage, but that's not why its my favorite. its my favorite because of the beginning when he said he learned it all by watching and i thought that applies to all parts of life even as missionaries if you've seen missionaries do certain things and it didn't work that means you need to try something different but if you see something that did work you should apply it to your work as well and it has endless possibilities. well that's really all I'm still a little sick but I'm getting better and I'm hoping to be able to go work tomorrow in Lavezares and do all i can to help their area to grow. well i love you and hope to be able to do all i can to help all of you while I am still here but i cant help unless you allow me to love you all
