hola mis amigos!
so everything in ecuador is going amazing! i arrived last thursday night at like 1 in the morning! it was my first plane ride and it was very exciting! not too bad i was able to sleep most of the time and the girls i flew with were awesome, too bad they went to the different city! so i live here in ecuador in a GIGANTIC house..it looks soo small from the outside then you go in and look around and its HUGE! so all the girls here are soo frikin amazing and they are all soo nice and they treat me and all the other new people like familia! they are soo funny too i laugh soo much everyday! they are awesome girls! so the weather here is soo weird...it is super de duper caliente (hott) in the daytime, ive even gotten a little bit of a tan already..sont worry everyone ill be black by the time i get home because we are soo close to the equator so the suns rays are pretty strong! but anywasy its hott in the day time then at night it like POURS and our house is really cold especially during the day suprisingly, becasue usually the house is always hotter inside than out but then again its Ecuador..so im getting used to going to the bathrooma and then instead of throwing the toilet paper in the toilet we have to throw it all in the trash..disgusting i know, but actually its not bad at all! another thing im getting used to is not drinking the water...we cant even brush our teeth with it unless you prefer vomit and diareha! in which case i do not, but ive already accidntally put my toothbrush under the water a couple times and im still fine so knock on wood! but other than that everything is AMAZING..oh i did get my scriptures stolen on sunday and my journal that had one of my few letters from my cute missionary in it! sad day! :( but it was my ow fault becasue well we only stay at church for sacrament unless you want to go to english sunday school..so me and a few other girls walked home and then when we got home we noticed that we dont have a key adn no one was home so we tried to break into our house which i might add was IMPOSSIBLE due to the electric fence around our house (actually made us feel alot better knowing that no one can break in ever! haha) but anywasy we decided to taxi back to church to get a key and we stupidly left our scripture by our door at home thinking no one will steal them cuz who would want enlglish scriptures anywasy...so we got back to the house to find everything wed left by the door gone! so i got my brand new scripture and journal stolen!!!!! it was a VEERRRYYYY sad day that day! but other than THAT everything is soo amazing in ecuador..the food is ok..im yet to try a traditional ecuadorian meal..but im still a little homesick but what can you do..just have to suck it up and move on..we have a quote in our house that says FORGET YOURSELF AND GOT O WORK! it really is a humbling experience being here and i love all my babies already! they are the cutest kids i have EVER seen! but anyways..thats a brief overview of what Ecuador is all about! everything is better in ecuador! <3 you all!
