Aug 29, 2011

hah Elder schaffer... did you add him as a friend on facebook for me? He's a cool guy so if he ask you should say yea. Yes, this area is super third world. Rice and beans, rice and beans all the time.... or rice and salami or rice and salami with beans. hmmmm.... and pasta a lot of pasta. Pasta is cheap. We can make cheap sauces too, if you want. But it's better to do full out dominican spaghetti. Throw some corn, ham, ton of cheese, onions, peppers, and a couple flavor things and some ketchup... super good.

I'll ask a few people to see if there are dominican nativity sets around here. Though im sure I can ask some guy to make one out of wood if you want a lot of people are super creative and in Ocoa theres one guy who knows a TON about wood I can just write one of my people in the Bani zone or Ocoa and ask about it. But don't let these people hustle you they love hustlin people. so watch out. Which reminds me we were teaching some guy who makes like ceramic plates and paints them into scenery and i was going to buy one off him or was thinking about it and i was like wow this is super cool.. pointing at one and hes like well its yours. hah I was like what? but yea ended up with a cool plate. now im thinking i may have told you about that last week. im not sure if it was this week or last. butyea... but yea third world country but in some areas it doesnt look it as much. you get use to it and it becomes the norm. so im all use to it. its normal to me. we were all talking about how when we get back its going to be like WOW look at all these richs house, what we get to go inside... wow all the streets are real and the houses are orignized. what is that??? aircon?? no way? padded cusions for the church... indoor gym!! with real wood floors? no way.... yea its going to be a culture shock. but fun. and awesome. but i got time. got to work harder to deserve it. only have about 13 months to work my butt off.
oh so we get to go to the temple in 10 days!!!!! woot!
but yea this week was a little disapointing. we were on top of the world. 17 progressing people or at least on like the third cita, all said yea well go to church. yea had like 6 fechas. then bam church.... 1 person in church 6 fechas dropped and a most fired us the next day... guess we got to arrogent. and that agency got to them. all well... well work harder this week.
but yea love you all
