HELLOO.....

HELLOO...
Another week of rain, rice and....idk what else. This week flew by so fast. Its weird because my days are super duper long but the weeks go by fast. Alot happened this week. Last pday was freezing and raining so hermana Andia chilled in our room...pretty exciting. Our ceiling is starting to give away to the rain sooo thats been fun haha I worry to much about it. Anyways, this week we had interviews with our president. I love that man. I feel so blessed to have Presidente and Hermana Zobrist! The whole interview was in spanish so I hope I impressed him with my spanish. Its really easy for me to understand "gringo spanish" haha. On wednesday we had divisones (i legit dont know what they are called in english) but its where I have a different companion for 24 hours. So i was incharge of puerta verde for a day and i loved it. I was super nervous at first because all of the lessons for that day were in my hands but it went super good! I was with hermana Rivera from Chile and we got along great. She knows how to work hard and it gave me the motivation to work harder and be better. During divisiones I had a super cool experience. We had a lesson with Isabel and Ronaldo but when we got to Isabels house she was in tears because she couldnt find Ronaldo and his cell phone was off. So for an hour we were searching for Ronaldo at every internet garage haha because thats where he always is. But during all this I had the strongest feeling we needed to pray but I was kind of putting it off because honestly Isabel scares me a little haha But finally I got the guts to speak up and literally two minutes after we ended our prayer Ronaldo called us. It was so cool. It strengthened my testimony so much and I know Isabels as well. In another lesson this week with Amanda (shes like 85) shes kind of a little alot crazy and so half way through the lesson (about the 10 commandments) she asked us if we wanted some Chicha which is the most disgusting drink ever. I hate it so much but people drink it here like water so we couldnt say no so she poured us both a tall glass of Chicha. So me thinking im being smart took the biggest gulp ever so I could get it over with faster and right before I did this I thought I could smell alcohol which was super weird...well it ended up being a "different" kind of Chicha which had a frickin ton of alcohol in it ....yeah...I drank alcohol on my mission. Hermana Andia and I were freaking out. So while she was getting her Bible we hid the rest behind her couch, so awful. I guess it happens a lot here because it wasnt the first time its happened to Hermana Andia! Pretty funny. Yesterday was a holiday here called Carnival. It's basically just a giant party and people trash each other with water balloons and paint and foam. I dont get it at all but hermana Andia and I got trashed pretty bad in the street. I was super mad because we had a lot to get done yesterday and no time to shower again we had foam and eggs all up in our hair haha but yeah. anyways, this week was great! I love you all so much!
