Hello hello hello, December!

Picture 1- Me chilling with my homie Sonic the Hedgehog. I'm so glad I saw this.


Picture 2- We got Christmas cards from someone in the ward, and mine had significantly less stickers than Elder Keck's. Hence the sad look on my face.

Hello, where did December go? Christmas is in two weeks, and that's weird. It came so fast! I'll only send you one more email before Christmas. Whoa!

This week was pretty good. It was really long, but at the same time I can barely remember a single thing I did. But it has a positive vibe in the end, so it must have been good. :) The guy who was baptised last week passed the sacrament this week, so that was really cool to see. He's changed his life, and he says he's learning a lot and it's a change for the better, and that's what it's all about! This last week I went on an exchange with Elder Henderson, and that was really good. We had a really good time, and I spent the night in the Wandworth flat. It was only the 4th time I've slept anywhere other than my flat in the last 6 months! So yes, Brixton is my temporary home, because I called it my flat. :D Hmm, this week we also met some really cool people, but the week went by so fast and slow at the same time that nothing seemed to happen! Oh yeah, yesterday we got a text from a lady we had been teaching and she invited us to her house for lunch because it was her Birthday. So we went and had some of the best jallof rice I've ever had, and I've had a LOT! She said she was really greatful we could come, so it was really nice. Also yesterday, there was a Christmas music program at the church and it was really good. We got to see some missionary friends who moved out of the zone, and they played some really good music. The choir here is really good too, it's so gospel. :)

This next week should be packed with action! In fact, tomorrow we're having a Christmas conference at the temple, and that will be really good. And Saturday we're having the ward Christmas party, so I'm well excited about that.

That's about all I got. I'm doing good, I'm still learning and growing and stuff. I'm actually having a really good time, so now I just have to harness that good attitude and use it for good! :D Ok, I love you guys. Bye!
