Hola familia!
So it has been another week! It is definitely going so fast now, and we now teach two investigators. One is our morning teacher Hermana Rodriguez, the other our previous investigator, Hermana Velasquez. I love it here more everyday. The elders in our district are so funny, but they've gotten better about focusing on the work, so that's good. I don´t think I said this, but pretty much half the CCM got really sick from the food about a week ago, but they are mostly better now. I never got sick, luckily. The weather is not warm! It rains pretty much daily, for three days in a row it was constantly raining. Its pouring outside right now, and I don't have my umbrella or a jacket haha. Oops, definitely should have brought a coat. We got to go to the temple again today, and I did so much better at the end of the session when you have to speak Spanish. Improvement! Mas fe! Haha I sya that all the time when I am struggling or having doubts, it just means more faith. Our sister district (idk what to call it, but we are really close with them, their sisters are my roommates) have this saying when they do well in a lesson afterwards. Salsa pic ante! (If that's how you spell it?) its great! I love the devotionals, especially the ones that are broadcast from Provo (they're in English then!) My companion Hermana Tyrrell is so boss! She beats all the elders at ping pong, including Elder Sillitoe, breaks apples in half with her bare hands (we've developed a habit of each eating half, its great. I never thought eating half an apple would be so satisfying, but it is.) and is SO FUNNY! She's patient with me when I go a little crazy, or sing all the time, which is good. Haha. I honestly don´t even know what to write, I can barely remember the past day, haha.
I wake up at or before 6:30 am, and get ready until 7:00. There is never enough time in the morning to do anything, let me tell you. We have a struggle getting to class on time..
We usually have personal study and then breakfast at 7:30, then personal and comp study until 9.
Then Language and coaching all morning, then lunch at 12:30 or 45.
Gym after lunch until 2:20 sh and then teaching our lessons that we haven't really had time to prepare at 3.
(Our schedules have changed a bit this week since we teach two investigators now, so half the class teaches one in the morning, the other half the other investigator in the afternoon. So we rotate investigators every day.)

Its also different on different days, Tuesday's we have a devotional in the evening so we don´t have Tall (online Spanish learning, its boring, but effective, usually an h our every night)
We never get home until after 9:30, and then we take turns showering and getting ready for bed. We pretty much have no time to even do our homework until the day its due (studying certain topics, etc) and even then usually no.
I have yet to do a single load of laundry, so I am hoping to do that right now, but P-day technically ends at 5, so... Well, that's all the time I have (I may have gone over, oops) Bye everyone, I love you all!
