So this past week has flown by. I don't even know if that is
the correct word to use there, but I don't care.
I had a lot of fun this week. Up until yesterday (the 4th of
July) it was pretty standard. We had classes, taught investigators, and ate
more food than we burn off. Its kinda gross like that. I mean I've been told
that I wouldn't have a car at all in my mission, and yet they feed me unhealthy
food? I don't know I probably shouldn't complain because the food is good, I
just know it isn't good for me. I try to do my own personal workout every night
and eat a salad and fruit with all my meals (they have pineapple everyday
so I love it) But surprisingly, with all of this food I think I
have lost weight. I am pretty sure I came in at 155, and the last
time I weighed myself I was 149. I have +/- 5 pounds every day though so I
don't think I'll stay there. Back to the 4th. It was a normal day until 7pm. We
normally have class till 8:25 on Thursdays, but we got to end early because it
was a Holiday. We ended at 7 and then went to a 'Firework side' Get it? My comp
came up with it. I thought it was pretty clever. But it was a really short
fireside where the speaker just talked about a story of someone who served in
the army. I cant really remember it, but it might come to me. Afterwards, at
probably around 7:45 it was announced that we were going to watch 17 miracles
as an MTC and then go outside and eat ice cream and watch the fireworks at
Stadium of Fire (and no I couldn't hear Call me Maybe playing :( ) We watched
the fire works from 10:20 to about 10:45 and it was pretty cool. They were loud
and pretty, but fireworks are fireworks and they get old after a while.

Oh
another sucky thing that happened this week! The temple is closed :( and will
be for the rest of my time in the MTC. I heard rumors that certain districts
and zones are asked to help clean the temple while it is closed, and I would
love to do that. What a cool experience.
Love you all, Elder Allen
Elder Mabey, Me, Elder
Sylvester, and then Elder Whitted
