This week has been extremely crazy! so much to say.

Wednesday i didn’t go to bed until like 12 a.m. because i was packing all night! then transfers came around and I saw some of my friends from the mission and got BK lounge with them. On the train i was with a greenie going into his second transfer and Anz. D'addabbo was his last companion so he killed D'addabbo and so we were talking about that in all english and then he said something in italian cause as missionaires we speak half italian and half English. so that’s going to be hard to do when I come back. Then this lady looked at him and said you speak italian and we said ya and we spoke to her in english and she spoke very well! and we just explained that we were missionaries and then she had to get off at her stop.

Then I got to Como and it is a beautiful city but I’m just sad that I didn’t go to Florence so I guess when I come back to Italy I will just have to visit it. When I got here I find out we have to move in with the zone leaders and so I didn’t want to unpack then pack again after 2 weeks so I convinced everyone to just move everything that night. and we did. so that was a tiring day.

We really havent taught anyone but it has been more of organizing everything whether it be the apartment or our areas of work because the ward just got split. Saturday we had a wedding to go to. for our investgator and so now she can be baptized too so we might have baptism soon! Then we had church and our ward just got sisters and they are very good looking and one of them is Elder Holland’s granddaughter and she just got here. I’m older than her by a month which is weird because almost all of the sisters are older than me but because of the age change I’m older. So Saturday one of them lost their wallet and the other companion doesn't have much because it is the end of the month and they also live in Milan so they are spending alot of money to get here everyday. So Sunday we went home to eat and thought for a second, well what are the sisters going to eat. For one it’s Sunday and they can’t buy anything and two, they live in Milan and they didn’t want to go home. So I called them and they were eating apples and crackers so I got huge brownie points with them and made them lunch and brought it to church. so we had a lunch date with the sisters haha jk

Then Monday we had district meeting. Tuesday was fun we had a lesson with 2 new converts and English class and FHE and had a really fun time. I just feel so awkward getting to know people all over again though. I’m so glad this is the last time! Today I’m getting a camera and we are going bowling in Milan.

I already bought an SD card. I should get to see Chance soon because he is in Lecco and we are very close to eachother. I saw that glowa got engaged. I can’t go to the temple because it is still outside of our mission. and our time changes yes. And nope, I’m not training.

Love ya and have a great week.
