18 April 2011



Hey! So this computer is bieng really handicaped right now and wont let me send the photo but, I'm going to keep trying while I write this. I think I got a virus on my card now from putting it in this computer. Wooh! But oh well, bani usaly takes care of that. Go wedding plans! Being good to go! I'm so pumped for them!! Woah! Boxes got there, well at least one did. So the other box hasn't showed yet? How did you like the photos? You like the photos? basically you've seen all the photo's I have, so nothing too exciting. Did the disk work?

haha glad you arent going through the pics right now, so you can write me:) Um tell Oma not to worry, haha she warned me that she wouldn't be able to write today. Plus she always writes so I'll let her slip this time;)

hahah that Chicago place sounds AWESOME! haha I'll have to try it out sometime later. For now I got me some yun yun. In my last area the big thing was empanadas they were everywhere a stand here a stand there. Franklins stand was by far the best though. If you ever go to Ocoa try his out. Here its yun yuns and corn. This is a campo campo so were surronded by fields. Especialy corn so its pratically free here. Yun yun its bascially a slushy but, everyone sells them and there super super cheap. 5 pesos for a cup full. So instead of buying water just been buying those. love em.
So turns out were like a 10-20 min walk from the beach. So close but so far... I want to try and go find a shell but I'm not sure if were allowed near the beach. But I want a shell from the D.R. so yea... haha

I LOVE LOVE this area. its amazing SUPER DUPER small but, there's a TON of members and they all work super hard. They are constantly willing to go. There are several that want to leave everyday and at leasat 4 that you can go to them any time and say you ready and they´re ready to go. They all love the work here and the work is progressing a TON here. We have 3 fechas set and well what's the cool thing is there not all kids! well little kids these are my first fechas that look like theyll really get baptised that are above (older than 15). They´re 17 and 19 still super young. But making the way up in age, my goal is to find an Old man whos ready to hear the gospel. The 17 and 19 year olds names are yuliesy and fransico. There is a third his name is roberto or papo as the people call him. All super cool and super ready. Yuliesy we left her the law of chastity folleto and a chapter in the libro de mormon and she read all of that took notes and starting reading reading the start up to 1st nefi chapter 3 shes pretty good.

THE CAHPEL Here!! woh!! huge! and beautiful!! WOW. The whole chapel of my old area could fit in part of the sacrament room and part of the lobby. The lobby... haha it has a lobby, for one, and you could fit 1-4 of the old chapel in it and the baptisimal font! WOW! I've never seen one like this before...Wow its well let's just say a tear or two was shed;) Just joking with that i didnt tear up or nothing. hahah but wow its good.
So my companion when I first got here, he said it never rains here. The next 4 or so days basically just rained. hahah I didint let him forget that hahah. Oh when I first arrived here. Wow!

So for my first transfer I wake up right, then the first thing i do is.... well those of you who are easly quezzy or dont like nasty things skip this part;) haha but yea the first thing I did is get up run to the rest room got some diaria and then next thing i know im throwing up at the same time haha thats a fun experience. Smelt horrible too. Though I don't think my compainion heard me throwin up so when I came out I had like a disgusted face on. I looked at him and I guess it just looked like a death glare and he was like "woah! What'd I do?" but yea.

Okay, quezzy people READ ON now haha um The one day I get sick I have to ride on buses. So the hour drive to bani I told the bus guy I felt like pukeing he asked if I wanted him to stop. I said I should make it but then he just slammed on the gas and started racing. hahah and When we were in the city he was just shouting I got sick here! I got sick people! He was trying to weave through traffic, hah! It was funny. But as soon as we stopped I got right out and well as he said "There she blows!!" haha Then while we were waiting for my next compainion, well you don't need details. haha Then as soon as I got off the next bus. This guy was just lke woah! are you alright!? HE accutally passed by again the next day to see how I was, super nice guy. Then later I threw up again and my compainion was like well that can't be normal but they way he said it. He just had his head tilted and kinda looked confused, haha, but just the way he said it.. but yea that was transfers day super fun. I think it was because of the hamburger I ate the day before. I thought that bacon looked iffy.haha oh well it tasted super good.

In ocoa there was a ton of random white people and the people were lighter skinded here I've left the land of brown and find the black people. My compainion says there are mostly hatians here. But there's this one guy who hair has whicked dreadlocks hes super cool. Then theres the 1st counsler. He's got a bit of a limp becasue he was in an accident with a motor. Dominicans are honest and well sometimes just mean. Mostly the little kids. We were walking down the street and they start shouting cojo? It means lame or something like that. Man that guy is boss, the whole way he handled it. He also looks pretty boss with his cane. First time I've used the word boss lately.

In the photos from home everyone is looking so much older! My compainion says JD and jhordan look older then me! Sorry you two, guess you're going to be looking like old farts. Because everyone when we ask how old I look they say 25-30 so, Good Luck hahah Though I think I look pretty young still. Still in my teens so I gotta be young. The costumes for the play look great. Looks like everyones having fun and looks like JD'ss got in a phase I was in, growing the hair out long... though I'll admit that at that time that look was fun haha.

well yea Love yall a Ton
Love Elder Zelasko
Okay gotthe photos done...



For the wedding, this is a foward shot and well i look silly but yea tu sabes. if you dont like it tell me i can take an other imma try ad send a side shot too if thats what you like better. so you know to be porportionally correct im now 6.1 and 180 hahah i wish na i have no clue how tall i am im pretty sure the same so yea. photo done!



so far so good for the side shot..... my fingers are crossed...
well not really there typing but you get the gyst of it:)




Oh so the hippos done not painted but, I dont think I can paint it. Maybe I can send a pic maybe I can paint it later. But now I need her (Miss. Lutz's) address to send it to her. It's pretty boss I'm considering keeping it for myself and making a few more random animals. Na its not that good but it at least resembles a hippo.




Man, Dominicans when they're yelling at someone it sounds like they want to kill them... "aye aye aye!" hahah but thats just how they yell.



ok this is our house its huge!!!




It's about the size of the old house but just two of us instead of six. I have my own room for my clothes my compainion has his own too. Huge! So far so good almost half way done!




oh so we have a dog! well we dont have one that'd be against the rules. but he lives right out side our house and yea hes pretty cool I like him, he follows around a ton but when we need him to leave its easy enough to loose him.



Ok so the hippo isn't that good but, I didn't spend too much time on it and I really don't know what I'm doing and considering, all I really had was a saw blade and sand paper im going with turned out wellish. :) Did Jd get a new computer? Jordan said shes using jd's old one. So that mean JDs got a new one? So he's heading off to college soon. haha oh man! He looks a bit bigger... though front on man hes got a jaw line.




haha eating me some yun yun... told you there everywhere. theres one right out side and quipes they're good. There like I dont know how to descibe them. Have you heard of them before? I think you have.. oh i had mango for the first time in my life, I'm pretty sure it was the first time. I dont know but it was right off the tree and wow super super super good. I just chomped on that for a little while. opps the picsare done downloading so I gotta go. So love yea have fun
