Peru 3/7/12

hola mom! its me!

 

did you get the pictures i sent last week? i dont know if they sent..

 

mom.. please add dennis.tolman"byui.edu to these letters.

 

please ask people to not write in spanish when they send my emails or letters. most of the time i think they use google translate, and i have no idea what they are saying because google translate is not always the best translator. i have even looked the words up in the dictionary here and asked the teachers for help translating and no one has any idea what is being said. sorry!

 

i got everyones dearelders on saturday. thank you so much for all of those! they seriously are the best. jolene i hope you feel better.. and give baby chaun a picture of me so he can look at it every night so he can be ready to build sand castles all day with me when i get back!  jeremy and priscilla.. thanks for the visual image of knowing that no one here washes their hands and then i eat the food here. its no wonder why everyone gets sick here! mom.. i love you so much. thanks for writing me everyday. i really enjoy hearing about how everyone is doing. hey did you know that remax, the real estate thing, is here in peru?? they are actually really big here cuz the real estate is going up here and us sucks right now for real estate. i thought that was interesting

 

please start sending letters to bolivia. i leave here in less than two weeks so the letters need to go to bolivia. thanks!

 

well.. my week has been pretty much the same. i am the coordinating sister here, so i just look after all 9 of the american girls here and then report it back to the president. my spanish is coming along really well, and im honestly not stressed about anything. i know that "if i do my best, the lord will make up for the rest"... hahaha... hopefully... :)

 

ummm... like i said my week has been really chill.. nothing else to report. OH!!! wait a second!! we got new latinos here. every three weeks new people come in. and the latinos this time are super sexist. like girls cant play soccer. but i showed them what is what is soccer and now they all ask me to be on their team. :) and they want us to ask to leave the room if there are guys there. hahahah ya.. sorry but i dont do that. i just get up and leave... when it is appropriate of course.. but my latino companion is always like can we please leave? and im like hahahaha no. im not asking permission from a 19 year old boy to leave the room. sorry.. i know i should work on it.. i will try to get better at being submissive. its just not something i think is a good attribute. to have. anways.. i love you all! a lot. dont miss me and dont have too much fun without me!! also.. mom.. i know you have almost no say in this.. but can you try to talk to sonya.. i think she is in charge next year.. and try to make the family reunion in august or late july so i can come next year? i would really like to. and also.. can we just have a little reunion with all our siblings? i think that would be so much fun. how is heidi doing? rochelle said she burnt her hand really bad. poor heidi. and give avi a kiss for me! i sure do miss her. okay i love you!! dont miss me too much! and thanks for selling my car! i just wanted it gone. so thanks for that!
