First Nights in the Philippines

Kumusta po Kayo!

Mabuti Naman. Siyempre, Mainit dito (It's hot out here).

So yes. My first two nights in the flips was at the mission
President's heck of nice home. Air conditioning and niceness and not
dirty and walang bugs (no bugs).

President Anderson picked me up sa airport alas 12ish. Pumunta tayo
sa mission home nang directly. (We went to the Mission Home directly.) Kinain natin ang American food sa mission home. (We ate American food at the mission home.) Its kinda funny. President Anderson thinks he is in America and by that I mean he only speaks English and no one can talk but English in his house. President Anderson keeps saying "This is an English speaking mission!" haha ridiculous. He is a good man.

So..... my area is sobrang maganda. (My area is super nice.) I can't even handle it. It's in Infanta, which is the most northern area in the mission. The only two
missionaries are me and my blue eyed blonde haired companion. We are
the only two missionaries in like 2 hours away. Its freaking astig. (It's so awesome!)

May branch tayo dito. (We have a Branch here.) The members are few, the church is a meeting house but the work is good. I gave my testimony on Sunday and it was
ridiculous. Everyone was completely shocked that I sucked at tagolog
that much haha.

My comp is Eelder Perry. Sobrang astig siya. taga mesa arizona siya.
magaling sa futbol siya. but what is really cool about him is that he
is obedient and hard working. That's the kind of comp i have been
praying for and i totally got my answer.

My companion is El Perry. He is so cool! He is from Mesa, Arizona. He is so good at footbal.

Anyways Kita kits. Ingat po. Paalam po. (See you later. Take care, Bye.)

Mahal ko kayo.
