Dear Mom,
Well another week has just flown by so fast. I really cant believe how time is just flying by. I am really excited that i am going to be able to talk to everyone this next week. So guess what, i did transfer. i am now in a new area with a new comp oh and guess what he transferred here with me. Ya a new area for the both of us. We opened up a new area. yet, we are in an apartment with two other missionaries. They are in the area next to ours but they live in the same apartment. It is really fun. Our district leader who is in the apartment with those that live in the apartment with us is my old mtc companion. It is really fun. We are having a great time and really trying to work hard to get this new area moving along. It is really cool. I am really happy. So next week you will be calling me but i am not really sure at what time right now i am going to have to see when you guys are at church and stuff and hopefully things will work out with my comp and him calling his family. he is from California and his family is on the same time as Arizona. i will write another email telling about the times and everything. So things are going good here. just trying to work hard and everything.Oh some of the names that i wanted. hey something crazy the other day I met a member here that knows someone that was in my Japanese class back home. he was so excited. It was really strange. crazy how small this world is. Well, that is all for now. I will try to get more pics home i just haven't been taking too many lately. Well, that is really all i can think about right now. I love you mom and miss you so much. I can not wait to talk to you next week. I am so excited. But I am staying focused here. I love you. Talk to you later.
Love your son
