Dear Fam,
Lots to tell ya.
First of all, I am moving to Wittham in Colchester!! I move
tomorrow and I am going to be in a trio... One of my companions has been out a
transfer less than me and he is from York and uh-mazing at football :) :) Soo
we are going to hold a football tournament or go football finding all the
time!! That is going to be bare fun! I don't know much about the other bloke,
all I know is that he is from Utah. Just like everybody else in this mission...
haha But we should have a good time! :) So thats that.
Second, It sounds like hawaii was reeeeall fun, but it sounds
like I was missed so much that you guys didn't know what to do with yourselves.
Im sorry about that. Maybe that will teach you a lesson... Don't go on fun
vacations with out me >:) hah Just kidding. I am glad that you had loads of
fun, that makes me happy :)
Okay lets get down and dirty. Here are the detes for my past
week. That rhymmed unintentionally. :)
Tuesday- What a night we had! So we went boxing with Phil
(our french Investigator) at his flat, and it was so much fun! A little story
time real fast. So phil before we went and fought taught us the basics so we
wouldn't hurt ourselves and all of that good stuff but then he said this to me,
"you can try to hit me as hard as you want and then from time to time I
will show you your weaknesses." I said "Alrigth sounds good" As
I am laughing, becuase I am about to box this amazing boxer and I have never
fought before in my life! We get into the ring and we start. I was making sure
I was doing everything he taught us. My stance was picture perfect, my jabs...
ooo Golden, upper cuts... could use some work, and my hooks... were eh descent.
So we were going at each other but not getting too fiesty. And from time to
time you know he said, "From time to time I will show you your
weakness?" Ya, he sure showed me!! I swear every two seconds he was
punching me in the face!!! And everytime he would say, "Oh, sorry."
And he would say it in his French-British accent, which sounds a lot like the
PInk Panther accent. So every time he would punch me and say that I would just
start cracking up, because his accent was killing me!! So pretty much for 6
minutes I got beat up by this French man who sounds exactly like Jaques
Clouseou and I was laughing the whole time!!!! :') :') :') :') hahahaha What a
good time!
Another story.
Friday- Friday we went to go teach Ria and we got a ride
from Nick Freeman (18 year old) and two of his mates (both non-mormon.)
But before I get inot the story you need some background info. There is a rule
that says, You cannot go into a single womans home unless you bring another
male who is 18 years or older. And we did not have a male with us... SO we were
just going to teach her outside becuase it was about 15 degrees outside and we
were teaching a quick lesson. BUt knowing that we didn't have a male coming
with us I jokingly asked Rushane, one of Nicks mates to come teaching with us.
And he said, "Ya, mate I wanna be cool like chu. I'll come teach." :)
Jserious that is what he said. And so we convinced Nick, and his other mate to
come teaching with us!! So we go inside and Ria has six of her friends with
her!! So we begin our lesson, The word of wisdom, and pretty soon all the girls
were asking us questions and Rushane and Carl (nicks other friends, both
non-mormon) were andswering the questions!! LIke one question was, "Why
can't we have more than one piercing and tatoos? And Carl spoke up and said,
"Well we came into the world with this body, and its showing respect to
God by not changing it and hurting it." And all of them were like, OOOHHHH
that makes sense. :) :) And I was just sitting in the corner laughing, becuase
we have two non-members anwsering questions about the word of wisdon!! :) :) :)
It was such a great lesson :)
This week Elder Dowdle was sick for about two whole days!!!
So i just sat in the flat and tried just to keep myslef sane! I read the
scriptures, watched a few DVD's in a fort that I built :) drew Lehi's dream,
and much much more! hahah It was so boring, and he was just fast asleep the
whole time!! I secretely think that he was faking it on one day, his birthday.
His birthday was yesterday and he was completely fine. Or at least to me he
seemed completely fine. And he was like naww mate I need to sleep this off. So
that was a bit rubbish, but what can you do? I shouldn't judge anyways. That's
bad stuff :) :) haha #WWJD Speaking of BIrthdays......
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE TURNING 35!!
Dang gurl you hawt!! :) haha and also shout out to CALEB!! ITs his birthday on
the 21st!! So everybody throw him a hug and kiss from me :) :) I love that kid!
Well, this is my last letter from the LGC and I have been
officially out for 6 months, wow time flies! Hey Mum, It is mothers day on
March 30th over here. YOu think I am allowed to skype twice? Once for this
Mothers day and one for the American? hah Should I ask president about it? haha
Just kidding. I would just get rebuked. But that sounds quite nice. Doesn't it
:) Anyways I love you guys and just know that your son is the same old son.
Just more spiritual and grown up now... Even though I look like im 16, but
still, I am great and super happy! I love you guys more than I can exprees in
words! So I LOVE YOU!! Will have to do :) :)
Have a great week, ANd here is a quick quote to keep you
going throughout the week :)
If you can smile when things go wrong and say it doesnt
matter,
If you can laugh off acres and wo and trouble makes
you fatter,
If you can keep a cheerful face when all around are blue,
Then have your head examined but there's something wrong
with you,
For one thing I've arrive at there are no ands and buts,
A guy thats grinnig all the time must be completely nuts.
hahah Just remember that! :) :) Keep your head up and smile
:)
I love you guys
Love,
Your favourite son
Elder Wright
Ps. We were in district meeting and we had a training on
extending Baptismal invites and this is what the ZL said, "Extending
baptismal dates is a lot like kissing the girl that you like for the first
time. Yes, its nerve racking, but afterwards its well worth it." :) :)
Every guy that just read that knows where I am coming from, but I would agree
on both sides of that, it is well worth it :* haha
Love you!!
