Woah i was accepted huh... good thing they have a 98% acceptance rate at BYU-I! haha never thought i would get in. So yeah Elder Clason was transferred out of Oxford, it was sad, we got along very well. But i received my new companion on Wednesday. I think everyone got confused on what i meant by a new missionary. I am not training this transfer, i just got a new companion. My new companion is Elder Smith, he is from Centerville Utah... (who would have thought that Utah pumps out missionaries) He has been out 22 months. That means that i am killing him off this transfer it is his last one! Its crazy. This week President Petersen called me (which is the scariest moment in your life cause you wonder if you are doing something wrong) he said how are you doing, hows your new companion, and stuff like that... then he said well work hard and learn as much as you can cause i want you to train and do the 12 week program with a new missionary... Ahhhhh.... how the crap am i supposed to train when i have been out for 4 months? So if all this actually happens, that will put my in Oxford at least until February, which is crazy! But knowing President, things could change in an instant.
Yeah the pizza was the craziest thing... We were knocking doors in this area and it was almost time for dinner, but we felt we needed to walk down this one more street, so we did that and then we headed home for dinner. We got in the apartment and i started boiling water to make some instant potatoes (i love potatoes, they are easy to make as a missionary that doesn't know how to cook or is too lazy to cook) when all of a sudden we here a knock on the door, we were like what the? usually we are the ones knocking doors... not other people! First thing i thought was, its the Jehovahs Witnesses!! They are coming to get us! But we opened the door and standing there was an Asian guy holding a pizza, a little different than we expected. He said your mom got you this pizza. I stood there and said...What? My mom? ( i was thinking to myself, if you only knew how far my mom is away you'd realize that this doesn't sound right) he said your mom is surprising you with this pizza. I said alright and i took the pizza because who am i to turn down pizza?? Im not insane. We opened it up and laughed about the inside that says from Mom with love and then a heart as well, cause i was laughing thinking how long it took that asian guy to draw that heart on the inside of the box haha. But it was great i loved it! I definately did not know that it has been 100 days, im not counting ;)
Yeah i got the camera, thanks, the other one is broken idk whats up with it. Now i will get some pictures.
No i am not driving, i wish i was cause i hate not being in control! I wanna drive! i wanna win!
Yeah a lot of crazy stuff going on at home.... weird.
Well things are going good, this weekend there was way too many people in Oxford because of the game, the city was jam packed. Just like sardines! We didnt have a very productive weekend cause of that. Well hope everything is good and i miss all of ya'all. Thanks Mom for everything!
