This has been the weirdest week of my entire life. Thinking
that 7 days ago I was still in American Fork chilling and being able to have
free time. They don't do that here. I forgot what chilling was and I didn't know
people still woke up before 7, like what the heck.

My brothers have said the first three days you wake up in
the MTC are the worst thing ever cause everything sets in. The 3 days of
darkness is what they would call it and bro its more like eternal darkness. I've
been here what only 4 days and I don't remember the outside world. Everything is
a blur right now and don't get me started on spanish. But seriously this has been some
of the longest few days ever but they are PACKED with some of the most fun I've
had.

My district is so chill but we are terrible at spanish like
so bad I don't get it. These guys who live in our house got here the same week
as us and already are only speaking spanish. While the first day I arrived,
some presidency guy hit me with a "bienvenido" and I responded with
"bien y too". So ya spanish going good.
Elder Shanklin and his district
Our teachers are dope especially Hermano Torres, hes a 22
year old guy and he's getting married once we leave the CCM (MTC) but he bares a super
powerful testimony and then posts a Facebook story about deadpool and wolverine
so he's got my respect cause W movie. But like I def don't watch that stuff...
All of the American Fork boys serving in the Mexico CCM together.

Anyways wanna keep these some what short so my siblings will actually read them so here's some pictures and oh yah I buzzed my hair, none of my district did, but at least I got the AF boys to back me up.
