MAMA,
Dana I MISS YOU!!! And I miss everyone else, as well! I'm halfway there, ohhhh I'm living on a prayer!!!!!
This week was so freaking awesome! It was Mexico's independence day and it was unreal. Absolutely crazy! I have a pic of me doing a handstand on top of our casa ( don't know if we were supposed to be up there) but we had to enjoy the fireworks. The party here in Mexico city went for like 3 days. It was unreal. We also got to participate in a show. All these Mexican dancers came and had this big show then we sang the Mexican national anthem. Make sure dad knows I'm representing my homeland well: VIVA MEXICO!!!! It was also 9-11 this week so we stood up in our zone and one of us had a flag and we sang the American national anthem and it was a way cool experience.
I received Ashley's and Laurie's packages and the whole district and me thank you for that! I also got a letter from Morgan and Whitney!! And Nat sent me a dear elder which was really nice. She is so cool i love her! And Whitney's letter just made my day. And the brownies I got form Laurie and Ashley were so good and the Reeses, Ashley, was much appreciated. I hope to see Laurie's letters here soon. They usually take about 2 weeks to get here.
I get my hair cut today and I'm really scared to go because they just straight chop your head. These cute little Mexicans have no fear. Mom, I know you don't want to hear this but after experiencing Mexico at night I don't think I want to live in America. My soul is Latino, Sorry!!!! hahaha. Mom, can you send my converse to Peru. I'm missing them in my life. It would be much appreciated!!! ALSO FOR DINNER ONE NIGHT WE GOT COSTCO MUFFINS and it changed my life. So goooood.
I forgot to tell you my nickname my district gave me the first week. They are, PBS (Pretty Boy Swag) lol and JFK. They think I look like JFK so I'm not complaining! He was a dang good looking man. Hermana Hansen leaves this week and I am super bummed. She has been a homie for sure. I'll send a pic of her next week, don't worry. My teacher got mad at me. She made me look up a word in the dictionary and it is coquetear ( or flirting). She thinks I flirt with the girls but I'm just being friendly and it's hard when Lizzy and Kal are my homies. Know what i mean? I see Lizzy all the time and it is way cool. She is awesome and her companion is even better haha. Mom, I need to know what my skis are called. I forgot and I need to know please. Also, last night there was a broadcast from Provo and guess who I saw in the crowd. It was Sister Call. Cute little Kylee Call sitting in the choir. It made my night.
My spiritual experience and thing I have learned the most is about the priesthood power the men of the church hold and the covenant you made with your heavenly father. Elder Webb gave Elder Wieburn a blessing because he had back pains and could barley walk and I had the opportunity to be in the circle. It was the coolest most spiritual experience I have ever been a part of. It was elder Webb's first time giving a blessing and it changed my life and perspective on the priesthood forever.
Everything is amazing here at the CCM. Life couldn't be better for me. It is really hard, don't get me wrong, but there is no where I would rather be. Spanish is really difficult, especially when you need to tell an investigator something and you can't say it because the language barrier, but I'm getting better every week! Tell Pop I love him more then life and I hope is is feeling better, and tell NAN I love her even more!!
Love,
Elder ADAMS
