that is hilarous about daisey (Dad and I are home now - Daisey was yelping like a fool when I came home - I had to pick her up by her sweating arm pits to quiet her down. She ended up sleeping with me and dad because she was howling. Oh brother - this is going to be a LONG two years.), i wonder what she will do when i come home. and i couldnt bear my testimony becaue it was all in spanish and i couldnt say what i wanted to say but i will next time. but for church we just had sacrament meeting then mission conference where we hear from the mtc presidency with all 2000 missionaries. i dont have alot of time. but thye allowed us enough time to email you guys and tell you a few plans. here is the time according to my time that i'll email you. 12 45 i'll call you and nanny, 1 15 kate and jon, 1 45 eric 2 00 dad, and 2 30 rachel. If i can call longer than i will maybe call you back, but it depends on the time i have. i'll see when i get there. and we are allowed to email family and missionaries only. We just cant email friends. but as long as were not spending all our time on emailing then its ok. what is the book that jon gave you. I got this poem but i never have enough time to send it to you. it is really good. When i get in the field i will send it then. i have a phone card too. they were pretty cheap. Oh yeah and i thought of that too. you may want to call bank of america and let them know that i will be in guatemala for the next 2 years so that they dont shut down my card. and also dont forget to add that check to my account for my debit card. ha why wont you go in my room. Is it like a museum now and you wont let anyone in it. (I came home and have not entered your room - but i found your bologna in the fridge, klondike bars in the freezer and I pulled a pair of your socks out of my dresser - everywhere I go - i'm reminded of you - check out the sign i found in the mall - (attached photo)
and yeah i havent really been having to hard of a time here. only headaches from doing spanish all day but not to bad. I think it really hasnt hit me until the devotional last night for departing elders and sisters. but other than that im doing fine. it was sad saying goodbye to my teachers today hugging them one last time, then i say bye to my district tonight. but it will be fun b/c it means im finally going to Guatemala. I have heard some crazy things about the MTC there but it will be fun. Im not sure when our next pday will be but when i email that will be a good idea. And im only getting small things from the bookstore. like the jesus the christ set, and i got a new camera case thatw as really nice. and i cant remember what else. ha. and my favorite colors are either black and red, but since im going to guatemala i would think baby blue and white would be cool. and there is a big number leaving tomorrow. but there are 10 going to guatemala. well i have to get going now. I have to go finish my laundry then pack. but i'll log back on tonight to check one last time. Oh and i sent my ipod because dad was going to load songs on. Tell him to put on these songs specifically, Come thou fount... Lord Dismiss us with thy blessing... and the army of helamen in spanish from the childerns songs. also the we will bring the world his truth missionrary version. and twhat ever else he wants. i didnt send the speakers becasue i may be allowed to use them in the field but if now i'll send them back. well that is all i can think of for now. i cant believe how fast this is going actually. it feels like i just entered the mtc and now im already leaving for guatemala. well I will talk to you later. I love you all
Love
Elder Shipley
