10 more days in the MTC! |
|
Dec: 3 1999,
Wow, my stay at the MTC is drawing to a close. Only 10 more days...less than two weeks. It's amazing how fast it's gone. I've formed some great friendships, had some awesome experiences, and grown quite a bit. Like I've said before this place is awesome...
But this week is tough. It's so hard to keep motivated! I just want to get out there! It seems like we do the same things every day and it's just getting old. I've had a cold lately too so that makes it a little tougher. I'm trying to stay diligent, but it's easy to start slacking.
There is another guy in our district who has been sick and staying out of class, just hanging our in his room. We've had a rotation going with different Elders staying with him for different blocks of time. I got to stay with him for 3 hours last night and it was great...finally a break from the monotony. The time went amazingly fast because I was enjoying it so much. I just talked with Elder Eaquinto the while time.
Today my companion Anz. Nebeker has been staying with Az. Eaquinto. But he just doesn't want to come back to class because he is really tired of it. SO he's just stayin' with Eaquinto. I don't really thik it's fair that he's doin it because everyone feels the same way as he does. But I suppose he is a little more frustrated than most, he's just tired of not having any free time.
I wish he would buck up and change his attitude...who knows. It puts me in a bad mood to see him slacking, but I'm not too upset.
What's really bothering me is that Carrie hasn't written me this week at all. She hasn't written anything for 10 days...I know I know, this sounds very nit picky, but I really look forward to her letters. She has been writing me every week and I always get her letters on tuesday...but none this week. I think a major part of it (my frustration) is that I wrote her three letters during the week of Thanksgiving because I was thinking about her a lot and had a little time to write...They were GREAT letters too, but no response whatsoever.
I'm sure there's a good reason, but it's disappointing to me, everyday when I get back from lunch, to not have her letter there for me...I tell myself everyday that it'll be there tomorrow, but nothing. It sucks.
Well I guess I really didn't expect her to write more than one a month, but she's spoiled me...I'm used to getting my tuesday letter! I mean...c'mon she lives 3-4 miles away...the mail takes under a day sometimes to get delivered...what's up? Is she playing with me? Is she hurt or something? Out of the country? What's up!? Argh! Okay...enough of that crap. I'll write more when I get her letter (or IF I get it.)
