Okay first I want you all to know I love you so so so much. It's so fun to hear about what's going on at home. It took two months but I finally got the packages my mom sent!!! I was so thrilled. I share my candy with my roomies every day. I think they are starting to really like me haha. My companion is from lots of places. The last place she lived was in Quetar, I don't know how to spell that. But she was going to school at BYU in Utah. Her dad works in an oil company so they've been to lots of places and lived in different countries where there is oil. She has been to so many other countries. Its fun to hear her stories and adventures. I love our ward and our area. The people are really great and the barrio is really nice. But lately we've seen tons of guys peeing in the street haha. They don't even try to be discreet about it. They just stand next to the wall or next to their car and go, seriously its so shocking! And every time I can't figure out what's going on. They're looking down and I hear running water but I always figure it out too late. Then I turn my head really fast haha. Its definitely a different culture here. We had someone ask us if we were from Germany the other day haha. That was a first. But they said we speak really well so I don't know where that came from. Fathers day was on Saturday here so guess what everyone did, they partied and got drunk. So sad. But we saw one family walking arm in arm with their dad in the middle of the road on our way home that night so that made me feel better to know some families spend fathers day that way here. It made me miss my dad a lot and I felt this urgency to send him something haha. I'm all confused now. My mom asked me if I needed anything. Well, I could use some new feet haha, I can hardly walk in the morning. It's more funny than anything because I look like an old woman hobbling around in the mornings and my feet are all swollen but i don't need anything. I love you all.
