Hey family! January 9, 2012

Hello my family! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!

i know it is really not your birthday, but I just wanted tobe the first! :) this week was really good! alot of neat things happening! wehad stake conference and i spoke one of the speakers in Japanese, it was fun toremember alot of the words i used to know! it was kinda cool as i startedspeaking alot of the stuff i used to know came back to remembrance! So thisweek on Jan 14 Elder Bednar is coming to the mission and we are going to have amission conference with him! everyone is really excited, it is kinda funny tolook at! we got a letter that talked about make sure your shoes are shined andour shirts are ironed, as well as make sure we just look our best.... as i readit it just said look FAKE because some is going to look at you.. i don't thinki should really think that , but that is what it sounded like to me. it is SOoften that we are fake, or just tell people what they want to hear so that wecan feel like we pull ahead! when really we are just lieing to ourselves. weare all in a race! the thing is that we are only racing ourselves so it ispointless to cheat, be cunning, or steal. anyways this week we were looking atvideos online and i really wanted to type,, and well i typed this really coolconcept, Mom ill mail to y'all! o ya we have a new missionary in thedistrict, he is not a new missionary, but he is really cool, so this lastweek has been really fun! this letter is short and kinda lame, but i lovey'all! i hope y'all are enjoying life! pray ALOT! seek truth always, therestons out there! don't waste time holding onto things that are not true! i lovemore then a penguin likes snow!!
