hey sorry i only have 12 minutes now... long story but next p day ill have a full hour...
1 last business item: could you please send me 2-3 long sleeve white shirts? the gold tree or whatever ones work great, but could you see if they come in fitted because i look like a balloon... its just that my Rl ones dont have pockets and i kind of need them- we wear our suit pants all day until 6 (in between general conferences) and then just put our jacket in our backpacks... and i dont like wearing short sleeves with jackets... and at some point it mayyyy dip down to not 70 all day... but yeah maybe its an early christmas present....? thanks so much!
ok a little bit about my area- its called north downtown. we live on s lafayette park place. my boundery is on the N: bevelery/1st street E its the LA river (so i have a lot of downtown in it but we havent gone that far east because we are on foot in a bike area...) on the S its 6th street and on the W its hoover... check it out on google maps! its a fun area- my trainer elder cooley is from washington state but grew up in hawaii (he is white though- his dad is in military) he spent the past 6 months in his first area- malibu. way dif from ours- we see about 3 white people on the street- almost all latinos with a few koreans... its not an amazing part of town (which means its fun!!!) but we live in the nicest street in our area- there are people who pull out of the garages from the apt next to us in beamers... but thats not the norm for our area- we have been offered drugs once (just marijuana) talked to 4 drunk hobos and seen 1 hooker and 2 strippers... hahaha but enough about that except LA people love their graffiti! holy cow wayyyy more than chi or NYC. but dont worry its totally safe, just not the north shore... or compton/watts either....there were sisters in our area before us so dont you fret....!
anyway we have 2 people with a baptismal date! nov 29! i almost got to confirm someone yesterday at church but he didnt show... i went to the english ward (75 people came to church i counted) and my comp went to the spanish ward (diff buildings so we went on splits...) i went to priesthood in the spanish ward... both of them have 6 (including us) companionships in them....
tell grandma david HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!! no time to write an email to her, will try to write her a letter, but as of now we havent found a drop box in our area hahaha...
LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
