Laundry Room and Chalkboards

Sziasztok!

So since lots of people have been leaving, my the people from my district were like the only people that help put away the gym, along with the staff that does it every week. So that took awhile, but it was kinda fun. But when we got to the last part, folding and putting away the 600 pound mat, we had to go recruit more people, because you need at least 30 people to put it away. So off we went, out to do our first "street contacts" ;). Before we could really get anywhere, though, we got word that we had enough people..... 

Christmas lights are starting to pop up everywhere. We don't think we'll see them on, though, because we haven't seen them on yet and we are leaving, at the latest, the day before Thanksgiving. *sigh* 

We got to Thursday, and I realized I hadn't taken many pictures, so my companion and I put on sweaters over out T-shirts and went outside for a photoshoot lol. I hope you like them!

The only normal picture
 

​lol 

hehehe i don't know what I was trying to do there

​

So we didn't make this up, this is literally what one of our teachers turns the chalkboard into every day.

My favorite things about the food, and other fun stuff

Sooooooo my companion is from Idaho, my favorite thing about the food is that it is always there, and they always have lots of juice, and sometimes they have this crab salad that's really good. They also have these corn dog things for breakfast, except they are sausages and pancakes, and you dip them in syrup.

Every Sunday and Tuesday our zone turns the auditorium for devotionals back into a gym. It takes awhile, since it seats two thousand. It actually is super fun, because we all dress up in p-day clothes and get to push around giant carts of chairs.

My favorite part of the day is gym time, during which I usually just play four square, except on Tuesdays and Saturdays, when I play sand volleyball with the rest of the zone. I usually can get to the king spot six or seven times now every day, lol.

I play piano usually for priesthood meetings on Sundays, and sometimes on p-days.

Hungarian is coming along fine, but its really weird. For example, "I read from the Book of Mormon" translates to "Olvasom a Mormon Könyéről," or "Read(I) the Mormon Book-from." Most pronouns are usually just dropped. So sorry I don't have pictures yet, but I promise I will have some next week!

Szia,

Another Picture of Paul at General Conference

Just in case you were wondering where in the Conference Center he was sitting at....

Paul singing in General Conference

Here are some pictures of Paul singing in General Conference.  I know he enjoyed it, but I think that I enjoyed it more!

Singing in the Choir and doing Laundry

October 9, 2014

Singing in the choir was cool. there were a couple of tvs at the front, but they were mainly for the choir director and the other official people that were sitting up there. so we mainly saw the back of their heads. it was funny because i could kind of see the prompt screen, so i knew what the speakers were going to say before they said it. 

the laundry room is like a laundromat. yes, you do have to buy soap and stuff, but its super cheap, and we didn't have to buy any anyway because a group left our zone right after we came and gave us the rest of their soap. 

in our zone, we have all the missionaries going to hungary, estonia, finland, and albania. there are only three missionaries right now who are learning estonian (two sisters and one elder) and apparently there are less than twenty missionaries in estonia right now!!

we go to the temple on p-days in the  morning, so its a great way to start the day!

Paul is singing in the Priesthood Session

I will be in the Priesthood Session choir of general conference. Pretty sure I'll be on your left, my right, and somewhere in the middle up-and-down-wise. spread the word!!! it's actually pretty lucky that I got in since the final applications were due on my first day, and the first practice was just two days later!!

Szia,

Bunker Elder

p.s. feel free to forward my e-mails to whoever wants them!

andddd we taught our first lesson in Hungarian to an "investigator" less than 48 hours of being in the MTC. we've taught three lessons to the same guy since then. Each one has been exponentially better, lololol.

Szia,
