Alright, so here's the low-down on the emailing. I can only email on tuesdays and I only get half an hour on the computer. that includes logging on and off and checking emails, so I effectively only get fiften to twenty minutes every day, and if I'm sending an email to both sides off tthhe family, that's not very much. the best way for me to recieve an email is through dear elder, because the mtc prints it out and gives it to me that day or the next, so I can read it at night during personal time, rather than waiting until my email time to use that for reading. Also, please don't expect a whole giant amount off correspondence from me while I'm at the MTC. P day is the only day I can wwrite letters or anyhting, and it's not a day off or anything, I still have a ton to do if I want to stay obedient and be prepared for the rest of the week. I''m up before the sun every day, and down well after it, working the whole time. Every once in a while there are a few minutes for us to divertirnos, but mostly I'm super busy all the time, and fall into bed exhausted at the end of tthhee day, but can hardly fall asleep because I'm thinking about so much stuff. So the moral of the story is use dear elder instead of email. that way I'll have moorree time to write emails, soI can answer questions and tell about experiences rather than just one or the other.
I did see Heidi Busch at one off the devotionals, but it was just by chance. Mostly there's a pretty small group of missionaries that I spend all my time with, so unless someone is part of that group I probably won't see them. Also I forgot to tell you, it was about four hours before they started calling me Elder Gato. Every P day I get to go to the temple, and it's super awesome. I feel the spirit so much and learn something new every time I bear my testimony, which is like every two minutes. Also I never got an email from dad, but I did get a dear elder. when you asked about me being able to see the blog I actually laughed out loud. all I can do on the iinternet is email and look up conference talks. Also, nobody is supposed to send me talks or literature. If it's something from conference, I can get it myself. Also, don't worry about missing a day or two writing. I do love getting letters, but I have tons to do, and my companion hasn't gotten anything yet and I don't want him to feel bad. The food is good, but it is to the point where it doesn't really matter. I just try to pick something relatively healthy, down it quick, then get back to class. Also, I'm working really hard in my gym time to beat the MTC mile time record of four minutes and forty five seconds. I get about fifty minutes a day that I have to spend in the gym. My companion, Elder Flake, is doing really well, and he's awesome at basketball. I can't email pictures, but I'll try to send some soon.
gotta go, love y'allll, bye
