Taiwan

Hey, how is everyone doing? Or should I say ni hao ma. Things have been pretty crazy so far at the mtc. As soon as I walked into the door of my classroom everyone was speaking some crazy Chinese. Apparently the majority of the people in my district have been taking Chinese for like 3 years already so I have some catching up to do. All of the older elders say that I'll cover the gap very quickly though. I have a really good companion. He's taken Chinese for a while and is probably the most fluent in our district so he has been helping me to learn, which is good because I have the least experience with the language lol. My roommates are fine too and none of them snore for which I'm very happy haha. Oh and I'm sorry to say that I haven't seen Dallin at all yet. Apparently he's in another mtc area than me so he rarely comes over to this campus. Hopefully we'll find each other at some point and take a picture together. I have seen Emily Hoskins in the dining hall...

Hey guys I just wanted to send a quick note home to let you know that I'm still alive even if just barely and that things are going well at the MTC. Trying to learn everything in the MTC certainly is like trying to drink water from a fire hose because there is just so much to learn and so much information being thrown at you. It's really difficult to try and understand it all but since it's only the second day I'd say there's hope for me yet lol. Well my prep day is monday so I can send you a longer email then so expect to hear from me again. I love you lots and am excited to help spread the Lord's message with the world.  Love, Andrew     Last Night With The Family   MTC Goodbyes
