You don't know how much I don't know of this dialect. k k, so I think I'm going to call you on Christmas at like 4:20 AM!!! haha ha jk jk k. Really I'll call you at 9:00 AM, and if that doesn't work out.. we'll figure some other time out. Sorry my last letter really wasn't too great. I fell asleep, and I was upset about something, but Coban was good. Elder Smith destroyed his pants on the bus. The food was really good. We had baked potatoes, salad, ham, and candy canes. The only thing I didn't like was the drink, Hawaiian Punch! I hate Hawaiian food, right? haha.. We sang some crazy Christmas songs, and I played a bell. I ate at McDonald's, an Italian place that was really good, and another really good restaurant. I bought a bunch of really good candy, and pretty much just ate cookie dough yesterday, so that was good. Um, we are going to have a Christmas party on Friday. That should be really good. I didn't get a change!!! K'A' PUT!!! MAS RA INCH'OOL, so I think I'm going to die in my area. Seriously, I don't even know how I'm going to live. The thing is, it's not so much hard to find people to teach ('cause every single person lets us in their huts) as it is finding people who are teachable. O.K., no one listens or takes us seriously. We taught a family of fifteen, and they were really excited to let us in and watch us talk, so we sang and we started teaching. After 10 minutes, one of the men said, "O.K. just pray." I was like O.K. that's fine. I told everyone, ''Oh, he's bored. Well that's alright , we'll just pray and go.'' They were all like, "Well, before you go, um... we just want you to do us a favor... our father is really sick and his medicine costs 600 quetz for a bottle." (By the way, I almost always carry medicine with me to give to people.) I told them, "Sorry that's a lot of money, and we don't have money to give out." Then the man got super mad at us, and then I was like, ''Could we just pray and leave?'' They were all, ''O.K., we'll pray.'' I had to tell them, ''Sorry, but my companion needs to pray so that you can all see how God wants us to pray, because what you just said wasn't acceptable.'' k, so we prayed and left. ( This is how teaching is in our area). I'm just trying to ignore all the apostasy and mockery of God that is everywhere around me all the time. I'm trying to just focus on teaching people really, really simple things like in Elder Uchtdorf's talk (but even more), like folding your arms, a prophet is a man that talks to God, etc... Anyways, I'm glad I'm with Elder Smith again, 'cause I couldn't be in my area without him. Cody is amazing! Thanks for sending me his last letter with his testimony. It's amazing to see my friends doing this. I'm really impressed how things change around me. Hey, I hope you're talking to my friends for me when you see them,( like Rachel Kime, Cody, Hilary, etc..) Um .. yeah, you know ,all of those friends of mine. Today we played Frisbee, and it was super fun. But I'm a terrible catch. Um... I'm having all my clothes altered 'cause I like to look fly, and it costs less than 70 cents. Cheap swagger. K, I love you! ''HAPPY CHRISTMAS HARRY'' -yeah, I know, I totally know, that I'm getting that Griffindor tie. I can shake my present and feel it.
Merry Christmas!
Love - Dis kid lil A ron
