Semana 7 (aka First week in the field!)

HOLA EVERYONE!
      So I'm just going to jump into how my first day here went.(After leaving the mission home)
      I met my companion who I will be with for the next 12 weeks. Her name is Hermana Larson and she is from San Diego! We went to check on a few formers (people who have been taught before but were dropped for one reason or another). Most of our area is trailer parks which can be a tad sketchy at night. We got pulled over (Hermana Larson said she's a terrible driver, but she's better than me so I can't talk) and luckily we didn't get a ticket. Later while in a parking lot, this drunk guy comes over to us talking about his great sound system in his car, dropping the F bomb everywhere. I laughed so hard after he left. My companion was horrified, and apologized about our crazy day but I loved every minute of it! We're going to have to buy lots of groceries since our area is pretty spread out, but there are only 8 active members in our branch (a branch is basically a tiny ward) and guess what? NO TRACTING. We are not allowed to go door to door, elders or sisters. All our lessons are meant to come through the members and formers.
      AND we had a baptism this week! His name is Francisco and I love him so much! I live with a family called the Cooks, and they are so sweet. They cook us a Sunday breakfast every week! I have a cell phone, so that's fun. I really need to work on my texting skills. I am so slow! AND the biggest surprise yet: We are going to have a meeting as a mission and we are going to have a SENIOR APOSTLE speak to us!!!! I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!
      I 'll have to tell you guys more about mission life in letters or in my next email, because I just do not have time! I really to to work on my typing skills too. Just technology in general.
     I LOVE YOU ALL SOOSOSOOSOSOSOSOOOO MUCH!! MUCHISIMO!
