We weren't able to email yesterday, so today na lang. so this week was again a very busy week. Work in the office just never stops. So we were able to visit some people last week. it was great!! You know, last week i found out that i cant work in an office when i get home.. i have to move.. just one day last week, we started work in the office and i just started bouncing my legs.. like when you are sitting and they just start jiggling... well anyways, i just all of a sudden had a weird feeling in my chest.. i had no idea what it was. i just couldn't sit still anymore. maybe a sudden onset of ADHD or what, but i just had to move! so luckily i had my soccer ball here in the office so i just started juggling and doing stuff and kicking the ball against the wall. then i sat back down and tried finishing some more work. but then i just felt the same way again. i don't know why, but i just got mad and started saying everything really loudly.. and getting annoyed really easy..it was just bad.. i didn't do anything stupid, but it sucked. so then we finally got out and went to teach. that was it! we took off to one of our investigators house and we all walked so fast and just were so excited to teach him. we taught him the law of chastity.
When we teach that lesson we cover 7 basic principles that you need to follow to live the law of chastity.1 No Tattoos..2 Earrings.3thoughts and words 4. BOLD movies or pictures. that's what they use for pornography.5. Modesty (clothes and stuff) 6.Live in. Here people have a problem co-inhabiting. where a man and woman live together with no marriage. that is one of the hardest things here. you will find a guy who is converted and his girlfriend is also, but then you find out that they are not married. so they either have to separate houses, or get married before they get Baptized. 7. its illegal to be gay. so we taught him this and then told him that he needs to correct himself. After we told him this, he was almost to the point of tears. then we told him that we could help him gather all the necessary paper work and help them get married in the church. the dumb thing is, his girlfriend is a member, and she is part of one of the most active families in the ward... So hopefully he will be able to get started and get married so he can get baptized.
so there you have it! that's pretty much all my week. I also got the contact package!!!! whoohoo! but not anything else.

Tell me about the picture of you walking down the road with your companion and some chicas behind you.OK.. so we were walking along the highway, when a thought came to my head. this would be a cool picture of me walking. so i gave my camera to Elder Edwards, and then i told the girls behind us to look at the camera. but E. Edwards took the picture too soon. so there is the story of the picture.
Tell me about the bridge picture?Well, that very same outing, we were walking home and on our way home we passed this bridge. so i then thought to myself... HMMM.... bridges make for good pictures. so i stopped and took the picture. haha thats it..
