April 23, 2012

Hey everyone! It is just super weird to me to now be 20 yrs old. I remember when each of you became as old as I am now, and i thought you guys were adults and super old. I don't feel completely like an adult, and I totally feel old!!! Well, not really. Next year I will officially be old. I will be able to purchase beer! ya....
 
Not too much happened on my birthday. I gave a training at district meeting. We talked to a bunch of people. We had dinner at a members house, although they didn't know it was my birth day, which is a good thing! I don't like to make a big fuss about it. I went to FHE with the singles ward. An inactive came, so that was sweet! Pres. Cook gave me a call at 10:29 and sang to me! I about got to chastise him for calling too late! I got my package! I love my new pants, tie, and the music! Thanks kristie for the Jamba juice cards! Other then that, it was a regular joe shmo day.
 
Yesterday I had a 8 yr old black kid yell at me. It was super funny!! We were walking by him, I said hi, he turned and yelled with a scowl, " You better not come over and talk to me..... strangers!!" His mom must have taught well, i thought. We walked away, and then he shouted at us again and said,"You better not come back over here you white boy!!" He said some other things too. Man, if that little kid had said that to the wrong person, he would have had his head ripped off! Talk about a racial profile right there. Anywise, it was super funny.
 
Other then that, Things are good. We've found a few people to teach. This one guy got reffered to us by the 1st ward. His name is Jerzhia. It sounded like they had an awesome lesson because they set a bapt. date with him and stuff. Well we went over and came to find out that it was way cooler then that. He is definitely excited about the gosple, he wants to be baptized, he read the WHOLE book of mormon And index in a day and a half..... Crazy!!! He knows that it is true! But it blew my mind. I have never seen some one read that fast. I had to make  sure he actually read it, so we asked him something about if he understood it all or something, and he fliped to the end of alma, read a verse that he went right to, and asked us what a judgement seat ment. Crazy stuff! He has comitted to be baptized on may 5th.
