Hey there,
I'm doing well, sorry you havent gotten my letter yet. It should be there soon. And mom, I know it will be crazy late but I havent had time so I'm sending your birthday present this week. You're gonna absolutely love it..don't worry it was only ten bucks. I haven't drank the cheerwine yet...I want to savor every bit...I don't even drink soda much...but cheerwine is special.
No Korean time doesnt change...or at least I hope not. If it does it would explain all of our appts that fall through...(no big deal just frustrating).
As far as teaching...Kim Chor Gun is still in China, has been for a couple weeks now. And we have maybe 3 investigators, things are just really slow at the moment. And Transfers are next week.
With my shoes, sorry, they are great shoes, they just dont wear the greatest..it's really cheap to get shoes repaired though, koreans love their shoes and there's these little shoe shining and repair shacks all over the place. So it was only like sixteen bucks...but the soles (inside) For some reason Koreans don't like their feet to be comfortable at least I dont think..I would absolutely love if you sent me some Dr Scholls or something...(okay, it would be like Christmas x 10) Just a thought...I know im very needy...
I'll do my best for that bulletien and try and get it to you. (can you fax stuff long distance?) I'll see what I can do.
Sounds like things are going well back at home. Happy Birthday mom...(don't think I said it yet) I love you very much. And I miss you like crazy! If you could send me a sandwhich..I'd be in heaven.
Ive actually had a few opportunities to sing while I've been here.
Lately Elder Wallentine(an amazing guitar player who found a guitar on the streets and who happens to be my companion) Have been singing for members and stuff...I've got video of me singing Carolina in my Mind and Fire and Rain...it's pretty sweet. I'll send it to you soon.
So ya, transfers are next week, we find out Saturday night if anything happens. I'll let you know next week. (which is transfers , same day as pday) Thursday here and Wednesday where you're at. Not really sure whats gonna happen. So thats really the only thing thats exciting right now..
Life is good.
I love you guys,
Brinton
