First off, I just want to take a guess at the reason Teri is going to email us, is Sam engaged? I definitely
need to at least see a picture before I will approve anything.
So, guess what changes were today and...I´m TRAINING!! The new missionaries get here tomorrow and I will be training one of them, I don´t know who, I don´t even know if it will be a gringa or latina,
but I am super excited!
Oh, I guess some of you might be more concerned about "the earthquake". Well I´m not sure exactly what they call an earthquake. I haven´t heard of an earthquake at all, but we did have temblores, or
trembles, that were super strong and I guess could have been called earthquake. The first one was Saturday at about 4:30 in the morning. The movement was pretty strong, strong enough that a few things in our
department fell from their places, but there also a lot of noise, it was like the earth was angry! It was a huge growl or something, my companion is a pretty sound sleeper and so she didn´t wake up until
the noise started, it scared her and she leaped onto my bed and held on to me with a death grip, even after the temblor passed. It only lasted like a minute in total, (well at least the part that I was awake for).
The second temblor happened Sunday afternoon, we were teaching a lesson outside in the country part of our sector, usually all of the little temblors happen in the night time, but this was the strongest
that we´ve had here during the day. It was pretty cool, you could actually see all the trees moving and stuff, its almost as if the surface of the earth turns to disturbed jello, all jiggly and everything. It´s pretty cool, but no one died and it wasn´t that big. Here in Chile there are lots of temblors, but some are just stronger than others.
Oh, so other news. I got bit by some sort of bug or spider. On the bright side, doesn´t look like it was one of the poisonous ones because, well, I can still breath. But, my whole neck is red and irritated and it is spreading to my arms as well. I forgot to bring Benadryl with me to the Santiago and I won´t be returning to Los Andes and my stash of Benadryl until tomorrow night when I have my new companion. So we are just going to hope that by that time I´m still alive. I´ll let you know how that goes.
Well, I will have to let you know about my new companion next week, when I have actually met her. Ojala qué todo esté bien con ustedes!
Les Amo Muchisimo!! Cuidense mucho!
