i'm just gonna do one big email
today if thats okay. as you obviously know. today, is thursday.
yesterday was wednesday. and it was transfers. haha Last week was good.
we didn't do a whole lot because we were busy moving things into the old
apartment, and we just visited a lot of members so that i could say bye
to all of them. yup, i got transferred!! could you imagine if me and
portillo would have done 4 transfers together? thats 6 months!! a
quarter of my mission.. but yeah, it was time for me to go. I got sent
back upstate! butttt not really. i'm finally out of the bronx after a
year in total of serving there. i'm now a Zone Leader in the Westchester
zone of our mission. the areas that the zone covers are white plains,
sleepy hollow, new rochelle, portchester, mount vernon, and a bunch of
others that i don't know yet cuz i've only been here for a day. My new
companion is Elder Mceachern. he's dope! we actually got to the mission
field on the same day, so i've known him for a while and now i have the
opportunity to serve with him! and, we are spanish speaking :)) yayy! we
ARE in a car. which is a blessing. and a burden, healthwise. but it
will be okay. we live in a SUPER nice apartment. which missionaries
haven't lived in before. on the 26th floor. with a dope view of our
city and of manhattan. we have carpet. and two bathrooms. and this time
it's only me and my companion. so i have my own bathroom haha its
ridiculous. annnnd we have a gym in the basement. which is free. and we
have a washer and dryer in our apartment so i will be saving like 20
bucks a month not having to pay for laundry.. and on the top floor of
our building we have whats called an "amenities" room. which has a pool
table and an air hockey table which are 100% accessable for us. so, its
safe to say i can't complain about where i live. i will make a video
soon so you guys can see. its definitely bitter-sweet being transferred.
i love the bronx, its my hood! and i made a lot of good friends there-
members and missionaries alike. a few of the members found out i was
leaving and they bought me stuff and made me cards and all that jazz. i
was definitely feelin the love! one of them even took us out to red
lobster on tuesday. it was soooo good. so good. so i am definitely gonna
miss being in the city, but i know this is where i need to be now. i'm
pretty excited. our chapel has 2 hoops in it, which my last one didn't.
and i hear we can play basketball a lot. so i'm excited because i
haven't played in close to 6 months. and thats not okay. but yeah. it
will be good. i'm just excited to be speaking spanish, and i'm excited
that although i'm not in the city, i'm not in the middle of some forest
like i was when i was in connecticut haha but yeah guys i'm doing very
good :)
dad, i would like some coyotas
if you feel inclined to send some :) and mom, sounds good about the
money. the reason i had 40 dollars left and not the 60 you put in was
because we had some unexpected things we had to pay for, but i will be
able to get some of that money back. i'm still planning on buying the
bag! i hope you guys are doing good :) there's nothing else for me to
really update cuz the BX is old news, and i don't know anything about
here. soo yeah. here's my address tho:
Zazzy
40 Memorial Highway #26E
New Rochelle, NY 10801
you know what to do with that :)
haha have a good week- I Love you guys!
