This past week was pretty good. My new companion is
cool. His name´s elder Rocha, if I haven´t already told you, he´s
from... I don´t know how to spell the place he´s from. It´s close to
Brazilia. I think its called Goyais or goyania or something
like that. He´s a lot of fun and energetic. He teaches really well and
helps me out a lot. He actually corrects me if I say something wrong,
unlike my last companion. He is very encouraging and gets me talking,
which is good, and having a new companion is cool
and all, but planning is stressful because I sit for about 5 or 10
minutes thinking of the things we will do tomorrow while my companion
can only wait for me. One night, while we were sleeping, a cockroach
crawled across his face, haha. That´s gross. Some news,
I received a pillow, which is nice. I didn´t have a pillow at all in my
first area, I arrived to my second and had a pillow for about a week,
but it was the other elder´s that left from this area so I had to give
it to him. mmmm so nice to have a pillow again.
I´m now in the same zone as Elder Kaufman, the k-man, which is cool. He
was already called to be district leader, holy moly he´s moving up the
ranks fast! We received a reference from someone to talk to their son or
something like that, and when we arrive it
turns out that 3 20 year old guys live there.... holy smokes that
was a little weird. We didn´t teach anything, we just talked for about
15 minutes and left. We had lunch with Klayton again, which was cool. We
didn´t go to a restaurant but it was still
better than usual. He still says stuff that I find hard to believe but
it was funny. Fun
Pictures this week: woah! red birds! Oh-ho woah! look
there! I´m in front of a boat! and 2 baptisms. Maria and Samara. Samara
kind of looks like an elf.... anyways, I can´t remember which pictures I
have already sent, now, so I will start taking
some random pics, like the inside of our microwave, and send the card
home, tá bom? tá bom, tá... Oh look! you killed the spider! HIGH-5!
Q&A
Do you go to people's houses and see any of the Olympics or do
people talk about them at all? Some people watch the Olympics, but I
think they like to watch regular soccer a little bit more. I watched a
little bit of volleyball, Brazil against Turkey,
I think. RULE BREAKER RULE BREAKER RULE BREAKER!!!!!!!
Did you get any packages or letters this past week? I did, I received a letter from Dad, S. Peterson, a letter to Josh from B. Abrea, funny, and a package with goodies and letters from Emmy and Davvy. Muito Obrigado! Your letters were great! Also, the little poem from that guy you work with, mom, is...... issszz..... I don´t know how to explain it. It´s great but kinda sucks... haha. Hrmmmm time is passing fast.... too fast....
What have you been doing on your P-Days lately? I finished reading Jesus o Cristo this past p-day, which was a great read. It really helps me understand my savior and the new testament, which I have never actually read before. Now I will start to use the present from Grandma and draw. I bought some stickers of DBZ and batman that I can trace as if I´m in the 5th grade again, isn´t that awesome? yeah, it´s awesome! :)
Have you had any pizza since you have been down there? I hear they have it, but it's different than ours. I had pizza once, its okay, but has too many toppings, including corn and peas and some other stuff that just over does it.
Is your new companion from Brazil - what part of Brazil (if he is)? He is from Brazil. He´s from Goyananie or gaindoiyr or anklsjdfoaij and now I`m just pressing buttnoinansdifnons on the compualksjdflkjlkjter.
Do you need me to send you something to clean your shoes with? nope, all good hear. I just use a brush and water to get all the mud off every once in a while.

Well that was my week, I hope you enjoyed it. Ah one more thing! I
received the package of pictures. I showed some people and they said
"legal." My companion says I look like Macoly Kolken or how ever you
spell his name, in the pictures of me when I was
younger.. Haha, engraçado! Anyways, I love you all and hope you have a
great week. I will talk to you again next week, com certeza. Stay safe
and healthy and don´t be lazy, David. Also, congrats to hammer for being
baptized, that is super Awesome!!!
Tchau!
Love Elder Makoleee Coalkin!
