So...I really like having an American companion. It's pretty cool understanding all of the jokes he makes and the cultural references to music, movies, and life in general. it's pretty cool. I hope I get to "kill" him (Mission slang for 'be the last companion of') because then I could stay here, but It's not too likely. I'll probably get transferred in the next three weeks to another place. Here in Jenipapo it's a little slow, so I don't really have much news. I have made a new goal for study (since I managed to read the standard works in Portuguese in a year). Now I have to mark every book of scripture (for The Book of Mormon I have a goal to mark a scripture on every page!) before Christmas...we'll see...I have had this really complicated scheme of coloring the topics since I got here, but I didn't start using it until March this year. Now I've already done half of the Old Testament and half of the Book of Mormon with random scattered markings. Well, I have to go, because of the time here, but remember that I love you all!
