Elder Logan Chapman: Logan's attempt at MORE information!

Well this week was a lot better than last week. I realized though that I´ve been leaving you guys out of a lot of info here at the CCM. Well when we first got here there was basically the death plague going around so people were quarantined in their rooms. I was lucky enough to avoid it though. so when it comes to going to the bathroom here (number 2) you either have the siempres (always) or the nuncas (nevers) and I have also avoided both of those too. They have this really good fruit here called a granadia and you guys will have to look it up. It looks like fist eggs and feels like snot but its really good haha. the showers here are pretty cool. They will be boiling hot one minute and then freezing cold the next. So you always have to be ready. On Saturday we went proselyting and the area we went to was the worst living conditions I have ever seen. we still gave out a couple Book of Mormon and taught a couple people. I was with a Latino companion so he did most of the talking haha. Spanish is coming along great though. I have been talking to the janitors and the natives and try to have conversations with them so that I can get better at it. Monday was elder millers birthday and he had the luxury of having food poisoning (siempres) so he had to stay in bed all day. Tuesday our roommate's left so that sucked because I became pretty good friends with them. Now we have 2 Latinos in our room so this should be an adventure. today we went to the temple and it was a lot better than last time. I just love the peaceful feeling you have while you are there. then after that went to metro to get some snacks and I just love being out and walking through the city. Well that's pretty much it. I would just like to leave you with a thought I had this week. When I said goodbye to all of you it sucked but I knew I would see you again. when god sent his children down here he didn't know if they were going to make the right choices and return so I can only imagine how hard that was for him. Well that's all. I love you guys!

I have actually learned a trick. You just put a rubber band around your wallet in your back pocket and it makes it so people cant just slip it out. I bought a cool little coin purse thing though because that is mainly what people use to pay with. That's cool that you sold the trailer. Now don't get any ideas about trying to sell my truck. you know when you used to tell me I should do pushups everyday and I just thought that was stupid? Well I have been doing 100-200 pushups a day since I got here, I´ve also gained some weight. Hope everything is good at home. I love you.

Oh by the way it has actually been pretty cold down here...not too bad though...just a little above Chile...PUN...I´ve been waiting two weeks to say that. Well that's all. I love you guys.
