Hello all you wonderful family members.
I GOT A TON OF CANDY AND CHEERWINE AND LONG JOHNS IN THE MAIL TODAY! thank you...
As far as the talk, its good, and I wanted you to read it...I read it just chillin in the house a couple weeks ago. We have Ensigns lying around everywhere.
By the way, about those cleats. Could you send em to me? Just when you can, it'd be nice to have them and my long soccer socks too.
The only mail I get is from family, Maria, and once in a while one other person. Oh and Terra sends me letters (Jasons wife) Its cool. No, Halloween is definately not celebrated in Korea, kinda sad...
Im glad dad liked the letter. The family's should be there soon, I sent it last week. Just know it's a big letter. Im sure you'll like it.
ugh...My typical day.
Every morning. Get up at 6 30..and run, man its cold...Get ready from 7-8. Somewhere in there, i shower, iron, and eat breakfast, usually something with Gochu Jang, (korean hot pepper paste). Then from 8-9 is personal study,9-10 companionship study, 10-11 Korean study, and then its leave time. Between 11 and 12 we usually get stuff done that we're gonna need that night, like copy fliers or something. Then at 12-1 is lunch, usually at the house, we get creative. Then until dinner at five its whatever we have planned. (dinner at 5) We usually have one or two appt. We teach about 15 a week. Either that or we just talk to people. Or knock doors. or something. We're always trying to find people prepared for us. By we cant find them unless we look for them. After dinner from 6-9 is "prime time" the apostles say its the most effective proselyting time, so thats what we try to do. and then its 9 back at home and we plan for the next day from 9-9 30. 9 30-10-30 is get ready for bed. Write in journal and stuff. Then to bed at 10 30 and all over again the next day. Thats my day, every day, except p-day and sunday.So in a nut shell,. thats how i live. Every day is a new adventure and something different, despite how different it sounds.
Tell him (Bro. Ross) I'll write something for the newsletter. Just tell me what.
Sorry ive been taking so much out lately. Lots of different factors. A lotta travel this last month, I found a coat...and it was reasonable. I need to repair my shoes, (just ware and tare mom, we walk quite a bit.) I dont want to use my other shoes til at least a year out. But im doing my best to spend money wisely, we are on a tight budget. But we live, and we eat and we sleep. For the record, the mission got me and my companion a couple new yo's. So thats night, their a little hard, but they do the job. Well have a good week family. Thank you for the pictures kaylie. I love you all,
Brinton
