well family, this week has been real real great. and thanks for all the
birthday wishes. seriously. they are the best. i love being remembered.
hahhahaahah but seriously. i think that is one of the ways i like attention.
eeeek!!
well like i said, this week has been great, and im going to fill you in on a couple of things that have happened this here week, aight?
first things first: this week i ate fried fish. but not just any fried fish. well, okay. it was just fried fish.BUT, basically how they do it here, is they just take the whole fish that the catch, and they but some batter on it, and fry it, body and everything. i couldnt believe it. and the head. and eyes!!! everrrrrrrryyyyyyything. so my plate consisted of 1 large fish(im not sure what type it was) and 5 little fishes that resembled eels, but they were small? i dont know what they were... but me and my plate spent the first few minutes just staring each other down (which can be taken quiiiiite literally because, well, there were eyes on my plate, still in the heads of the fishes) and my 2 companions were just crunching away like it was completely normal. and they told me, the head is the best part, you just have try it!! so......did i eat a fish head with eyes???YES. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. i felt so inhumaneeeee. but....it was reallllllllllllllly goooood!! i cant believe it. but it is true. so mom and pops, when i get home and fish, i just might have to prepare fish for you, the peruvian way. hahaha maybe. i cant imagine myself doing that right now, but mabes in a year i will change?
also, on saturday night we were soooooo tired and all of us just wanted to sleep. so 10:30 roles around and we are all snuggled in our beds, and we hear this procession of trumpets and big bass drums coming down, slowly, our street. and it is something that they do here, ok. there is this catholic church near our house and they have these little parade things where they carry around a saint and worship it. it is sooooo messed up. hahahhhaaha and they mnake soooooooooooo much noiiiiiiiiiiise. so as i was laying there, all i could do was just laugh hahaha it was such a bazare thing. idont know if i conveyed it very well, but oh well. haha
also, we recently met this lady named Kelly and she is realllllllllllllly great. hahaha like you, kelly. hah. he. anyway, we had our first lesson with her, yah, normal, and the spirit was definitely super strong. and then at the end, we asked her to offer the prayer, and she did, and in the middle of it, she started crying super hard and the spirit was superrrrr strong. and then at the end, she told us that might have cancer and she is also pregnant, and that she was thinking about getting an abortion, but now she isnt going to getone. and i was crying, too of course, b-c im a baby. anyway. it was all just reallllllllllllllly really great and wonderful and she is the greatest.
also, i attached some pics of my birthday stuff that has happened. it is a tradition here to push the face of the person in the cake, so that is what happened. and also, i it is a tradition to throw eggs and flour at the birthday person. fun? uhhhhh....i dont know. but supposedly tonight that is what is going to hapen at an FHE. so i dont know i feeel about that.... eeek. help. me.
