Hello family!
So this week went by so fast! It started out with a rain storm and I now understand the meaning of “when it rains it pours”! It just dumps here it's so ridiculous haha. We play basketball with whoever is there and I don’t ask who is a member and who is not, but I think everyone is. We didn’t go play golf today because they don’t carry lefty clubs so we didn't want to go and play with short right handed clubs.
Our baptism went great it was so awesome and I was so excited for the sisters that getting baptized. On Halloween day we have set a date to baptize a kid named jay-ar. We told him that it was on Halloween and he just looked at us so puzzled so I don’t think they celebrate that holiday here. So I guess no trick or treating for me! So I got a pretty bad stomach problem this past week (it was awful). We think that I drank some bad water from the members and I got sick from it. So for about 3 days I was living in the bathroom and I won't get to graphic but I think you know what I mean. I was given some pills to take that the presidents wife gave me and she said to take them for my stomach pain and after a few days it went away and all is well. As far as Christmas goes I really have no idea what you could send me right now. There is really nothing that you could send me that I need that I couldn’t buy here. The only difference is that here everything is fake and cheap and depending on what it is, it’s a whole lot cheaper here. Well except for American candy that’s really only thing you could send me. There is some candy here that I could buy for you all here and send it home to you and that could be my gift to you all for Christmas. I don’t know if you guys would care if I did that or what.
So I hear Jeremy is starting his own business or something? That’s so sick! What’s the name of it? Give me some details about that It would be great to hear how things like that are going. How are the snap on decals going? Are they sticking on any better? Send some pictures of what it looks like when you get it all done.
Lets see what can I tell you? My companions name is Nathan Hanks. We get along so that’s good! Its so sad to hear that Alex Lew has cancer! I about died when I read that! Tell them that they are in my prayers. Man that’s not a good deal, I hope that the doctors can get rid of it and let me know how Chris is doing? I hope he is well. I got a letter from Aunt Tracy and Uncle Brad. They wrote me and told me a little about Christian and what he is doing in boot camp. They said that he cant write letters yet but he can get their letters and that’s good that there is at least some communication. I would die if I couldn’t hear from anyone or write anyone! That would make me go nuts.
So Morgan thinks she is a big shot because she is graduating in a little bit huh?? Haha jk morg! That’s so cool! I hope that you can get a job somewhere! I think that Paige would be a great school teacher if she is interested in that. I think that a school teacher would fit her. Keep me updated on the school stuff Paige! And also get out of my room lol! Fatty! How’s Peyton and her school? How’s teaching going? What’s everyone been up to?
So there was a pretty bad accident this week down the street from our house it was a tricycle and a truck. The tricycle was pretty thrashed! It got thrown into a shop and the gates that they put around the shops so that no one breaks the windows. It was bent away and the glass was all busted and shattered - not good! Then on another day we were driving in a jeep and there was a guy riding a motorcycle that was behind us and like all drivers, the jeep signaled for a turn and began to turn right. Well the guy on the motorcycle decided that he was going to pass us but we were already turning right. So he slams on his back brake and his tire start to fish tail all over the place and he almost went face first into the road- but he didn’t. So he comes to a stop and gets off and our driver stops, he comes over and start yelling at the driver and they have a conversation about who did and who didn’t signal. Well the dude got even more mad and says “gusto mo patay kita” which means you want me to kill you! In the mean time Elder Hanks was thinking what does this guy have a gun? Well guess what happens next? The dude pulls out a gun and points it at the jeep driver and his wife and child who were in the front seats next to him. Then he realized that there was a jeep full of people and was right next to the capital building. So he calmed down and we drove off without anyone getting shot. So that’s what happened this week and as you can see it's been a pretty crazy week! Well that’s pretty much all that happened but there is a typhoon down in Manila and today or sometime soon we thought is was going to be up here but it didn’t hit. I hope it doesn't come up here at all because its suppose to be stronger than the last one that came through. All is well as of today so that’s good.
Well I hope that your all doing well and that you have a great week! Thanks for all the love and support! I love you all so much!
Love,
Elder Mulliner
