Answers:
- University types to teach? Do those exist? No. Most youngish men aren't interested, at least not in our message, or are pervs. Limited families. We mostly get older peeps, at least right now.
- Primary- about 10ish kids. all adorable. especially my friend Junior Cadena who is short and plump and comes to english class.
- We make our own lunch most of the time- yesterday we made breaded chicken, spinach and green beans. "it's pretty scumpscious" (bobby) Other favorites are red sauce pasta sometimes with hamburger, gnocchi with pesto, pannini with salami, corn flakes, and an occasional trip to mcky d's. mcdonald's is THE PLACE to hang out here, all the high school kids think they're really cool when they chill there. haha. so basically: carbs. yes i am getting fat. and PROUD OF IT.
- last week we made some pasta called "pipe" = pipes. but when you hold them a certain way they look like the Nasgul hoods. here's a pic.

As for this week:
PDAY: we just shopped last pday. i
bought a couple cute wintery hats, and then the weather got warm again. drat.
I learned how to say wedgie, well kind
of, they dont have a real word. these italians are missin out. they say
"ti tiro su il mutandone" = i'll pull up your big undies!
Prince: We taught him chastity this
week with Alma's advice to Corianton. He said he had been praying for God to
help him find a wife, and that there was a lady he had been praying about. Then
Sor. Smed. got a phone call from mish pres's wife about transfers so she got up
and walked a few steps away, during which time Prince told me that he thought was the answer to his prayers. Oh dang.
Smed. gave him the smackdown that he
couldnt marry me. He had it all planned out: he would move back to Nigeria in a
little while, I would go home to America, then move to Nigeria and he would
build a church on his land back home and I could be a missionary in it.
Uhhhhhhhhhhh.
He came to church on sunday, though.
yay! :S
Salvatore: is getting baptized this
saturday! we've invited the whole world practically! he's really excited and so
are we. he's also had a really wretched week, family problems, a cousin died...
but he knows satan is trying to distract him and is so determined to be
baptized. way to punch satan in the face!
Transfers: me and smed are staying
together for one more. Sor. Winward is going to Sardegna, hopefully to baptized
all her extended family that lives there! Embree is going to Bari.
Kiddies: we visited the kiddies (Elen
and Eva) and played some funny games with them and discovered their love for
ONE DIRECTION! for picture telephone i wrote "harry from one direction
asks elen to marry him" and she hugged me a hundred times cuz he's her
favorite one. hilary told me they have a new album. how is it manny?
Spiritual Thought:
I've been a little all over this week.
I feel like I'm messing up right and left, with things i had no idea could
possibly be wrong, and getting all kinds of crazy mixed messages.
"aaaaarrgggh!" meh. and i just want to chop off some scalps like the
warrior of captain moroni does to Zarahemna (i read that part today). but
moroni realizes they're all scared and tries to be fair by giving them a chance
to change. and what i took from that is even though im feeling a little
bombarded and attacked by wild, bloodthirsties, i need to keep calm
and be fair, too. a little bit of a stretch, but whatever works. just know im
learning LOTS. from the scrips and from life.
LOVE YOU ALL.
VI VOGLIO TANTISSIMISSIMISSIMO BENE.
