hey all you cool cats on the other side of the planet! this week here in the office was BUSY as heck. we are getting ready for changes that are coming up here soon, so we basically have been running around like chickens with our heads cut off. but here is an inside scoop as to what we did this week. 1) so here in the office we move people in and out of houses. what normally happens is the missionaries that leave the mission leave A WHOLE bunch of stuff (clothes/shoes/stuff they bought in the ferria) so president was like,"ugh ok. you guys need to find a place to get rid of the clothes you have gathered up from the houses that you have moved." so we burned the clothes in church parking lot now i know it sounds a little weird, but the fire was really controlled and we had a fire extinguisher close by, dont freak out. my comp hasnt ever gone camping in his life, nor understood the laws of pressure, so as we were unloading the bag of stuff, we threw in an aerosol can into the fire. as the majority of you can predict, it definitely blew up. the only thing is, is that none of the shrapnel hit us. we ended up walking away ok, but all the ward members from the ward activity that was happening thought it was a gunshot and freaked out HAHA. 2)we had zone conference this past week! the only thing that is kind of a bummer is that i deal with all the sound equipment and doing all the computer stuff during the conference (power points/videos/etc.) so i couldn't really participate THAT much. it was stressful to heck trying to set up for it because i had never done it before, but it ended up being all ok in the end! i made a super hipster power point for hermana gwilliam and the mission seemed to dig it. 3) we went to go and meet the new elders in the chile mtc! it was super cool! this new batch of elders seem sick as frick! we drove to the ccm to get their pics taken and to snag their passports and set up the time for when they are going to get picked up. 4) we went to the temple for pday today and it was so cool!! the only annoying this is is that there wasnt enough space in the session that we reserved, so we ended up going to the sealing sessions and helped out with some of the names that they had. it was seriously so cool!! being there and being par of the sealings really made me feel the importance and the power that the temple gives us. there was one couple that was doing the majority of the sealings, and i could just feel the happiness in that room!! i seriously cannot wait until i can get sealed to the woman that i love and have a family with her for time and eternity! this church is the only church that does that!! i have to scram though...wish me luck. this week is changes and i have to drive to the airport and pick up the new peeps in chilean traffic #idratherswallowaweedwhacker ekw me getting attacked by toxic fumes this about sums up what the office is so it looks like the trash on the bottom right corner is burning, but i can assure you that promptly after this pic we used the fire extinguisher to put it out the train we take to get to the temple me and the main bae mate <3333 me and silvaggio
