Hola todos, this week was filled with a lot of experiences, both good and bad haha. So yeah, first i will explain the subject: we went to the member we always eat lunch with on Friday, and they had 'tacos,' but it was cows tongue meat! and they didnt tell me till after haha so then i got sick to my stomach again that day haha, but its okay. Another food that I love here is facturas! And Milanesa, which is like a giant chicken nugget lol that everyone always has for lunch. So last pday we went to the acuariam here! It was so little! lol but cute and fun. My camera died so my companion had the fotos, i will get them from here in a minute lol. It was so fun! me and Hna Reyes get along like 2 peas in a pod. Everyday is an amazing adventure with her and I will miss her soooooooooooo much after the mish! I will go and visit her if I can in El Salvador!

But don´t worry about me ever haha. I am doing well! so some of the changes that have happened are that our schedules changed!! We are working now until 10 pm every day starting this week!! It is crazy, so we get less sleep haha but we also leave in the morning to at likt 930 to do citas but then we go back after lunch to finish studies. the mision president likes a lot of changes hah! We also can wake up at 630 to have more time to do things the morning, it is a new option apparently. Also, the last week we didnt have electricity!! it was crazy!! We didnt pay the bill because it was 2,000 pesos and we ran out of money that week,,. lol mision problems. But, so when we got money we paid and so now we have electricity!! I am ...
