Usually I find the things that I am worried about aren’t a problem–and the things I’m NOT worried about end up being the problem instead.
Pre-worry: eating with only my right hand. I thought, geez, there is no way, because I CANNOT use a fork and eat rice with one hand. I have to use my left hand to scoop.
Problem? Nope. Because the thing is–you don’t actually use a fork to eat! Just your hands. Yep. Straight off your fingers to your mouth. It makes eating with one hand really easy. And the food is super delicious too! Pro. Nuckolls asked them to cut out the bones and fat too, so… whoof… that’s a big relief as far as meat goes…
Not a pre-worry: the toilet.
Problem? A little bit… I thought we were going to have toilet paper, but we don’t. :/ Good news is that the mystery of whether or not they just use their hand is solved too–there are hoses in the bathroom. 🙂 I’m still gonna try and find some toilet paper somewhere though…
Got some new clothes! Though I think I was kindof stupid about it because they’re not light colors… I got black–what was I thinking!? I know this is the coolest time of year and all, but… it’s still pretty warm.
Language class was pretty bad. I’m gonna have to be kindof aggressive if I want to learn any of the language cuz… we’re just acting like dumb american tourists speaking English and hoping they sorta understand.
I never really learned to do sign language communication like they did in the MTC since I started my mission speaking spanish… so this is kindof a new thing for me… not being able to communicate… It’s weird.
I’ll probably pay to get the internet later, and I’ll try and send you some pictures.
Love you all!!
