Once Again! I have so much to say and no time to say it! Actually there isn't that much to say...every day is almost the exact same thing. It is helping me a lot though. I can't believe I've already been here for a month. In one more month I will be out in the field teaching real people! That thought terrifies me! I feel in no way qualified to do that but I know the Lord will help me when the time comes. Learning the language is coming along great. I learn 100 words per day! Unfortunately, I forget about 98 of them cause I forget just as fast I learn! haha just kidding! The language is actually coming along really well and I'm getting a lot more confident in my ability to teach now! One of the hardest things to deal with is the books they gave us. They are terrible. They are suppose to be teaching English speakers how to speak Portuguese but the English part is full of typos and the Portuguese is Spanish half the time, so the books are practically useless without an instructor there to tell you which parts aren't actually Portuguese! I'm definitely more used to the weather down here! I don't particularly love it but I can handle it now haha I love you all! Write me, I love hearing news from you all!
Tchau,
Elder Haws
