Week 1 MTC-Mexico

1 Nephi 2:15

15 And my father dwelt in a tent.

That is the scripture that I want for my plaque but anyways the mtc in
mexico is really fun. All of the teachers are locals and live in the
city so they only speak spanish and it is difficult but not too bad.
We only have 1 hour a day with a teacher and the rest of the day is
just basically studying spanish. It is really teaching me alot of self
discipline to work hard. I know more spanish than i thought i did and
since I know the most spanish in my district i have to be the
translator but it aint too bad. That is really cool that utah state
and byu won though. There are alot of kids in my district that are
going to Utah State surprisingly and many people here arent fans of
byu haha.There is a samoan kid in my district and who is my roommate
who weighs about 320 pounds that is playing utah state football when
he gets back his name is darren johnson and he is really cool and he
is always playing his ukele. My companion is Eric Durrant and he is a
really tough lookin dude. He is a few inches shorter than me but is
suuuper ripped and can do the chest dance that dad can do. He is from
arizona and he is really cool. There are alot of natives here so it is
really awesome talking to them and they are really friendly and nice.
The mtc itself is crazy big and has a countless number of basketball
courts and tennis courts. I havent found a person to play tennis with
yet tho. The food here is terrible its not even mexican food like for
example for breakfast this morning was tomato soup with hot dog pieces
in it and a kid that was supposed to leave the mtc today threw up
during breakfast and couldnt leave. Well me and my companion have been
practicing teaching lessons to teachers who are disguised as fake
investigators and its really good practice. Its not as hard as i
thought it would be. I feel pretty confident to go out to the field
already but I really want to leave this place mainly because of the
food. A district in our branch left today to go serve back in the
states and before they left they got our whole branch to sing the
national anthem outside and it was really funny. While we were singing
it we could here the mexicans outside the walls getting mad and
shooting their guns which made it even funnier. Well Im out of time
for today but goodluck to sarahs soccer team and i cant send pictures
today because i have to buy a special usb thing from the store and its
closed today. But thanks for your guys email and updates on sports!
email me all of em peace fam
