I'm doing laundry now cuz it's p day. I sent home a letter yesterday please give it to everyone in the family to read cuz there is stuff for all of you. I ordered a large and small philippines t shirt so i can send it to you when it comes in the mail here. I got aubreas dear elder message. THat is the best way to send me mail. Please give my address out to anyone that wants to write me. Please share how I'm doing with my sunday school class and also sis. lemmon. I got letters from mom and brooke today. Thank you so much for those.
Brooke I miss you too.
Mom it was hard for me to leave too. That's why I walked away so fast. I fugured the faster the better. When I found my room the other elders in the hall from my zone welcomed me with open arms. My comp was in the group after me and I thought maybe he was not going to show cuz it was so long before he came intot the rooom.
Like I said I have two comps. One from Fiji and the other is Samoan but lives in the states.
I'm learning so much Tagalog. I know enough to joke around with the other people going to the Philippines.
Aaron will you please check to see if anyone sent me their address on myspace and get them to me any way you want. (YOU CAN ALSO EMAIL THEM TO ME, AUBREA AND I WILL GET THEM TO HIM)
THere is so much diversity in my zone. I love it. There is one elder named Elder Bradford who is related to Phillip Elder and Lance and their family from FF Stake. His companion, Elder Funk is a crack up. He looks like he is 14 and is from Idaho but does not grow Potatoes. He is just a little white boy. When he says, "I'm kinda a big deal" I die. He tells stories that go on forever and nobody listens. But we always ask to hear more.
This morning I went to the temple again but this time it was to do a session. Next monday I'll do sealings with my two comps cuz that's one of the options we have at the Provo Temple. The temple is open Monday mornings for a few hours.
I have already gained some weight from this food. It's not as bad as people say but it packs on the pounds. My pants that are a 36 are getting tight. I'm a play volley ball extra hard with the samoans and tongans and work as much of it off as I can but I dont think much will happen. I love to play with them, by the tiem I leave I'll be pro cuz it's intense.
My knowledge of doctrine and my testimony has grown so much in such a short time. God placed me in with a special group of missionaries. I love the poly people. We will be great missionaries.
Well time is short. Next Sunday I GET A NAP!!!! That's if I don't walk to the temple. I could have had one today but I needed to get some stuff from the book store so I can write letters and keep my notes from class organized. They only give us 30 min. a week to do email and I'm almost outta time.
Gotta go I love you all so much. It's almost a week and I miss you all so much. Please write me as much as you can. Letters adn dear Elder are the best but I'll keep you updated with emails and letters. Any thing you wanna know just ask.
ELDER BRUNSON
