hello!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are so right. Skyping was awesome! Usually people feel bad after talking to there family because they miss them so much, but I have never been so happy in my life. Also something happened that made me happy too. I will tell you later. I decided that I dont have an accent, I just cant speak fluently. I have to stop and think when I am speaking in English. OH! and also, I was talking in my sleep in Portuguese with elder mccann hahahaha. elder ludwig was reaally scared and left the room.
That's funny you wrote about the transfers because there was an emergency transfer! he left and I have a new comp. Elder Vilar! He is awesome but it is likely that I will only stay with him until the real transfers, which is this week so thats alright I guess. He left because other missionaries were fighting. There were three couples that changed. I think I got the best comp!
So about the packages. Elder ludwigs package got stuck and he has to pay 250 reais for it! thanks for fudging the truth on mine:)
Thanks for all of the new years wishes! that was awesome to see and made me really happy!
Iwould write back to people but I think things are normal again with my new comp. I will see how long he likes to stay in the lan house but I dont think I will have much time to do anything....
We are definitely blessed in the US! you guys have no idea. When you come to pick me up I will show you haha. so I talked to president about you guys coming and he said that if my stake president calls or skypes to us in Brazil, he can unofficially release me. Just to make it so I am not an elder and I dont have to keep the rules like swimming. Then when I get back to the US he will have the interview and release me for real. It happens a lot here so he said it shouldn't be too bad and I have a place for you guys to stay too:) ha we will see about that.
So some funny things that happened this week: my old comp S. melo drank a cup of water and he always flings out the last bit of water. We were at a members house and he did the exact same thing he always does... but he chucked the cup and it smashed into pieces!!!!!!!!! hahaha
also the emergency transfers happened...
I got letters from dave and julie, the ward haha, and sister rose!
and the COOLEST thing that has ever happened to me that already happened to lucas in the 4th grade....... I dropped a high lighter and it killed a fly!!!!!!!! the weirdest thing was that it didn't hit on impact, it bounced, the fly moved and off the bounce it died hahahahaha. sooooo awesome!!!!!
Also mom, that special journal paper that you bought for me will run out. When it does should i just by a notebook and right in that?
Thats all today! love you ALL and hope everything is going well
LOVE ELDER JAKE LANGLOIS
