Wow it is so crazy. I can´t believe it is actually
coming to an end. I still don´t really believe it. But its starting to
hit me now. It will be bittersweet. But its always like that. I feel
that I worked and tried to help the people while I was here, so I can
go home proud for what I´ve been blessed with accomplishing. This last
week didn´t end the way that we had planned...we were shooting for a
baptism. But in the end everyone fell. It was kind of a mess. But it
will all work out in the end.
So awesome experience. We just got back from Itacaré. It is
suppose to be one of the best beaches in Brazil. It was super sweet.
There were people from Germany, USA and other parts of Brazil that we
saw there. But there are suppose to be tons of people that come from
Europe to visit as well as the states in the summer season. I was able
to get some sweet photos at least I hope so...i haven´t looked at them
yet but it was super beautiful. We were on the bus and there were a
bunch of people speaking in German. It just made we want to study
German again...but it was weird after a little bit I started to remember
German and I almost understood a couple of phrases that they were
saying. Anyways it was a sweet P-day. We went with a member...a
returned missionary. He only has 1 month back from the mission. I was
asking him if he had any advice for me. He was like just have something
to do when you get home. Well I should be fine with that....I´ll be
working almost right when I get off the plane.
So for food that i want. I left my list at the house....haha i
made a list of food that I want when i get home. But anything will be
awesome I know. Some of the things that i´ve missed the most are
mexican food, lasagna and stir fry. Also for lunches if theres
watermelon and maybe some chips that would be nice. Oh and do we have
peaches. I want to eat a peach so badly. But in the end i´ll be happy
with anything....i´m not picky.
So for doing something in Spokane....I can´t really think of
anything that I´d want to do well at least that I can do. I´d like to
play hockey but I think that will have to wait for a little bit later
on. And I want to be released if that isn´t too big of a problem. I
don´t want to have a companion anymore...i´m done with those days...well
until I find an eternal companion that is....haha.
So I actually saw some of that soccer game. We were at lunch with a
member and there were watching it. They didn´t take to well to loosing
to Mexico....but there weren´t riots or anything. If they had lost to
Argentina it would have been a different story. They hate Argentina
here. But yeah the people watch a lot of olympics here. It kind of
sucks because you´ll be walking down the streets and just see bits and
parts of it. I´m always like who´s winning, whats going on. Haha. But
everyone tells us how good the USA is doing...so thats nice. I guess
we have the most medals....or did the other day. I´m not sure anymore.
Well I´m super excited to see everyone....this last week will fly
by for me...i leave tomorrow for Salvador and then Thursday I leave for
the states!
I love and miss you all,
love Garrett
