This week on monday I finally got pictures. :) I'll send them this week
This week has been crazy I think as I study and learn more I feel more and more stupid. Weeks are flying by now. Every letter and e-mail help me feel loved, secure and cared for.
So needless to say chinese is tough. But I am learning(which is good) but I need to learn faster. This week I actually felt slightly (and by slightly I mean ever so slightly) like a chinese native. why? well I have a STORY!!! So we got new elders a while ago, and this week I was talking to a new Elder who knew chinese before coming to the MTC. we started talking and I used a word that had several meanings. He didn't get the context so I started to draw the character with my left finger on my right palm without even thinking. He knew the character and we continued talking. later the zone leader came and said "good job," I said "for what?" he then talked about the experience of earlier that day. I hadn't even realized I was doing it. I felt good. :)
Everyday I''ve been running one-three miles depending on hao..(Chinese is catching up to me) how fat I feel. ;) I love the gym time here. It's the only time I can relax. I know running doesn't sound relaxing, but it really is. I miss sleep.. lol I think I have never slept this little in the summer...I think it is good for me though.

Sometimes I wish I could come home just for one week and fix, thank, and prepare all over. I feel I could have done much better.
Well lastly Just want to say thanks again. :)
