" Just like last week i don't have anything exciting to write about. I wake up at 6:30 every morning, i work out until around 7:30, eat, study for 1 hr, and then another hour study followed by language study, and then its an hour or two of tracting followed by a table if it's not raining and then lunch and lessons and more table and tracting at night,lol. The area i'm in is extremely boring and i do tons of walking. I dont know how many miles. I guess it depends on the day. I made a goal not to eat any more junk food but i failed at that today because i had a big chocolate bar and im regretting it right now because my stomach hurts, lol. I gotta lost some weight because im getting chubby in the face. My companion doesn't like running or anything outside so i jump rope and i bought a pull-up bar a while back that i use alot. I can do about 15 but for my first 6 months on my mission i ate so much so i have some good fat on me =). Who would've thunk it =). The companion i have now i will be with for at least 4 more weeks until the next transfer and then i might be with him for one more transfer after that which would be another 6 weeks but i wont know until a few more weeks. I have a feeling i will be in this area until July and then hopefully i move. It's sad that i dislike this area so much but it's just hard to get work done. We have lessons at our church which is a 20 minute walk from our house and then if the people dont show or after the lesson if we want to track we have to walk about 35-40 minutes to our tracting area. Sometimes we try to set 4 hours of just tracting but it gets pretty frustrating and tedious. Sorry i dont have any real fun stories for you. The big market we went to today was a blast and English class is going really well. I have fun helping out and teaching it. We dont play soccer in this ward which is lame and even if we did i think my companion wouldnt go. There are some rumors that i might be heading over to 4th branch in July which would be awesome because my first area i was in for my first 4 1/2 months in the country is right by 4th branch and i know lots of the members and it is an awesome area and i love the members over there. We have about 30- 50 people show up to church in the branch im in right now. Not too bad but not great either. I dont want my email time to be up because after this we are going tracting for the evening, lol. We are on the outskirts of the city sort of and the places we track are along this mountain called mount Dajti and it is ghetto up there, lol. We get harrased pretty bad and we run into a lot of gypsies who send there little kids after us to beg us for money. Luckily i think they have learned we wont ever give them money so they leave us alone for the most part. I'm not sure what else i can write. It has been a pretty mellow week and the weather has been pretty nice. It ran twice this week but i am pretty much used to it by now. I can already tell the summer will be very hot and humid. Alright that is all for this week."
