hey mom,

yeah this week has been way better. I just had to adjust to the
craziness of this island for a minute but now that i have i really
love it. The days fly by because of how fast paced it is and we teach
all the time so its not slow like maui was ever. its kinda nice haha.
My comp is doing good. He is still learing a lot though so its a lot
up to me and i still feel like i know nothing but its all good. Were
doing good. Yeah we still have our baptisms scheduled and we got
another one yesterday... Some lady ran up to us when we were walking
through the ghetto and said her son wasnt baptized and asked if we
could do it. His name is John Paul haha. and he is 11 but thats cool.
We had the highest numbers in the zone. That felt good. Our zone is
way closer than maui because of how close we all live to each other so
yeah i see everyone all the time. i like that. so even though we live
in a 2 man its not really like that because someone is always over so
its cool. As district leader i dont do much else, just busy work.
report numbers for the district, do baptisimal interviews, and train
on tuesday my district, oh and on friday i get trained by the zls. its
cool i guess. just more work.

Yeah for conference we saw it all. We live with a non member and we
watched it in his house. That was cool and was way better than the
mtc. I liked conference a lot and felt like 99 percent of the talks
applied to me haha. The how to raise a daughter one sucked though
mom... lets get real i couldnt apply it. but yeah elder hollands talk
was way cool. My favorite quote from him now is "In this family, we
serve missions!" Im kinda scared of him honestly but he made me feel
proud to be a missonary. sometimes you forget and dont wanna do it but
it was good motivation.
  
Thanks for all the food. the reason we eat out so much is because to
get back to our pad is a freakin hike and a half and its not worth it
to take out 3 hours to get back so we eat out places. its good for
dinner though. we dont eat as much with members so thanks.... thanks
for everythign.

i love you guys and keep sending letters haha

k love elder allen
