First week in the real world...

Wow.... Argentina is so awesome! Everything is so diffrent but that was kinda expected. We first landed from our 12 hour flight which was absolutely miserable because I couldn't sleep at all and we went to the mission home.  We ate some Empanadas and they were so good I wanted to cry.  I ate about 8... ya I might get fat. 

Anyways, my pres is super cool I have interviews with him tomorrow too so that should be fun.  My comp is super cool. Way cooler than I thought he would be and no he is not Latin he's from Arizona.  After I met him we headed to our area.  I'm in Romona which is outside of La Plata.  I'm basically in the middle of nowhere.  My little home is right by everything: church, food, stores, everything we might need and we take the bus to where we need to go because most people live in the middle of nowhere. The people are super nice and willing to listen to us, that makes it pretty fun.  The only problem is I have absolutely no clue what people are saying to me and it sucks!  The accent is so diffrrent and they use vos instead of tu to us so I really cant understand too much on the street.  Lessons on the other hand I can understand everything and participate a little.  I guess you can say I have a strictly missionary vocab right now.  Overall, everything's great here!  The kids make fun of me but its all good. 

My comp is really awesome and we (he) is having success.  It was definitaly very nice to get out of the mtc and get here.

I also found out letters get here fine the only problem is I get them every transfer every 6 weeks so they take forever.  Packages are fine but there is a certain way you have to do it. I forgot how though...

Anyways I know I'm going to love it here I just need to get a grip on my castillano. 

If you have questions ill answer them I just dont have a whole lot of time to write and stuff.

Have a good week. 

Love you all,
