FAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

HOLY SMOKES.  Hello all. Buen dia. I love you. Thi week has literally been incredible I legitimately don´t have words. Also this kwyboard is horrifying weird and I have no idea how to use punctuation so if you think thats gonna happen you are wrong. Also every word I type is underlined in RED SQUIGGLY BECAUSE IT ISNT ENGLISH. Every thing is Spanish my entire life is Spanish and I love it. First thing is first. My papi (trainer) is Elder Ozcariz Choi. His father is Spanish and his mother is Korean. But hes native from Spain and is honestly such a wonderful man. Also because hes SPanish all of his ´c´s and ´z´s are spoken with lisps which means not only am I learning Castellano but I some times without thinking use his accent as well. Which is lots of fun. But Elder CHoi is really wonderful. Hes an incredible teacher and loves the work and works hard. Honestly I dont know how much time typing on this aweful keyboard is going to take so all sentence structure and grammatical rules are out the window for now. Sorry. My area is called Villa Posse and I am in love with it. Im in love with Argentina already. From what Ive gathered so far from the families weve either had almuerzo with or taught or whatever it may be every one here is super good humoured and I love it. All the members are jokesters and I dont know how to explain it but I love love love every one and am so stoked on life. My favourite family so far is Familia Discepoli. They were baptised last Feb. I believe and are such a sweet couple. Hermana Discepoli is this big wonderful woman and Hermano Discepoli is this tiny wonderful man. Hermana Discepoli is hilarious. She by far has the thickest accent of any one Ive spent an extended period of time with. Its like almost italian but the words are Spanish. I love it so much. The accent is so much fun. Its so animated and jovial and I dont know you just feel like every one i having a great day because of it. Every one is having a great day because every one has the Light of Christ in them. I literally understand a solid 12 percent of what people say at the very most but who cares literally not me at all. I know I´ll understand eventually and theres really nothing to worry about except making sure that every one I talk to knows how incredeibly much Jesus Christ loves them and their family. That is our message. It is Christ´s message of love! (Was that an exclamation point? I cant see well this screen is very bad) God is literally our father and knows us better than any one. Like any loving father He wants the absolute best for us and wants us to return to Him! The way to do that is through Jesus Christ. The only way. I am so grateful for the wonderful family that I have who taught me the ways of my Saviour so that I have a desire to share them with the world as I am! 

President and Sister Roberston are wonderful. SIster Robinson is hilarious to listen to because she is not a fan of germs, but here in Argentina it´s a bit hard to be at war with germs. But she is super super awesome and cares a lot about the missionaries. President Robertson is a wonderful man as well. He puts a lot of trust in his missionaries and is not the kind of person to breathe down your neck at all. I´m excited to get to know him better but he is definitely my mission president and I love both of them already.  
Our apartment is nice but like all other houses here it is very dusty all the time. Also, Mum, I never thought I would be the one to get serious about this but I´m definitely going to be cleaning the bathroom today. Evry thing else is fine but our bathroom needs a bit of work. SPEAKING OF BATHROOMS YEP THEY USE BIDETS IN ARGENTINA HAHAHA HOW SWEET IS THAT? Im not gonna lie bidets are a thousand times better and Im willing to bet more sanitary in the long run. Honestly when it comes down to it the whole idea of solely toilet paper is pretty gross. But yeah. Why doen´t America use bidets? Not important. 

Uh Saturday I had a baptism which was crazy. First week baptism whaaat! His name is Angel and he´s an eight year old capo (closest definition of capo is like stud I guess?) But such a cute little kid. His family is quite a mix and match. And really wonderful. Familia Meza. Angel´s mum Yanina recently started coming back to church when her boyfriend Carlos started investigating the church. He is honestly super super wonderful and is way ready to be baptised he just needs to get marry Yanina! All of them are such a wonderful families. Also all of their kids want ties for church! If you can figure out pouch mail more ties would be incredible because I only have like six and I have a feeling that that number is going to dwindle. I´m gonna look for some more to buy as well if I can. Heh heh. 

I also so far hardcore dig the food. Pretty much the only actual meal we eat here is almuerzo I´ve had some killer empanadas which I´m a huge fan of. They also eat a lot of milanesa here which is pretty much like fried chicken tenders with some seasoning and usually pasta to go with it. But yesterday I had asado for the first time at a member´s house. That´s what Ive been looking forward to and it far from disappointed. I don´t understand how a cow can taste that good but it did and it does and it´ll do it again. Today I am going to buy oatmeal for breakfast because recently I have been gagging down bread and this weird chocolate jello stuff that is not meant to be eaten in the way that I have been doing so. But hey, the rest of my food has been really, really good. No problem. I don´t have much more time but honestly I am so incredibly happy here and there is nothing I would rather be doing than serving these people and serving my Father in Heaven. I love my Saviour and am incredibly grateful for his all-encompassing teachings and sacrifice. We would be nothing and we would have nothing with out Jesus Christ. All we need to do is come to Him because He knows hw to help and love us a lot better than any one here does. And He will help us. He does love us. I love all of you so much and am continually and eternally grateful for your support! 

Ciauuuuuu,

Elder McDonald
