Well I'm going home...

... to Louisiana next Tuesday. We got our flight itinerary and I leave at 4:45 on September 17. Which made it so real and I'm excited to get out in the field, but it stinks because I'm gonna miss some of the elders in my district who are going to cali and not Louisiana with me. Food update: Every meal here is starting to taste the same, so we have resorted to candy and soda that our beautiful mothers send us, infact we made our study table into "THE HOLY GRAIL" and that's all I eat now, but the holy grail is creating my dad-bod... we have a Cooler in the holy grail, it is really hard to maintain, we have to put ice in our suit coats and sneak the ice out of the cafeteria and into our residence every meal to keep the Cooler cold lol. It's worth the work because we always have cold Dewskis. I made a new random friend named Elder Dover. We met the first day because I pranked my companion and had him ask Elder Dover if his name was Ben and then me and Elder Dover started to see each other everywhere. I love the kid he is a Golfer from AZ. One downside to the MTC is life is pretty boring here... so we find fun and excitement in anything and everything. Last week I let you guys know about the "gas" problem in my district, so I brought up a game i used to play in middle school called doorknob, whenever someone passes gas, anyone else that hears or smells can say doorknob and punch them as many times as they want before the person that passed the gas touches a doorknob. It is actually a very cruel game that has led my companion Elder Ballard to climb onto a shelf in our room to wait us out, and he ended up diving from the top of the shelf onto the doorknob in order to not get punched. Its Crazy, I thought it would bring an end to the epidemic, but it has only made it worse. A huge bonus to constantly studying the Book of Mormon and the gospel is that now I can crack some GOOOD jokes with the scriptures and stuff so I'm impressed with myself So much happens that like I just don't know what to tell you guys so I'll leave you with some way good scriptures for all of you to use in your lives: D&C 84:88- He is with us and will bear us up Ether 12:6 - Faith definition Ether 12:27 - He will make weak things strong. (cool thing about ether 12:27, I was teaching a lady in TRC (teaching practice here in the MTC) who smokes and like loves the gospel and believes it and stuff but didn't thnk she could give up smoking so i opened my Book Of Mormon and this is the scripture that popped up which was INSANE because the spirit definitely made that happen.) SO ill leave yall with that heres some picssss. 1. Elder Dover and I 2. Elder Ihrke and I being goofy he did muh hair 3. Cute Mirror selfie wit da BOIS 4.
