Her first letter!

Hey!
Ok, don't read this until you get my letter...which should be tomorrow....or you can read it now, whichever :)
I'm......good. The first few days were really stressful but I think I'll be ok. Everyone kept saying, make it to Sunday and I did! Yesterday was SO good! Really relaxing in a busy MTC way.
I've gotten really close to my district. They are all so good and we have a lot of fun together. Ok, I got to my room, then we got my books, then my componera Hermana Bingham, (camille bingham if you want to look her up on Facebook for pictures and that). Then we met our district and all that jazz. Saturday was SUPER stressful because we were told we were doing a zone workshop in that we would teach the first lesson and answer questions, IN ESPANOL! I started crying after we were done because I didn't know what they guy was saying! Then we taught one of our teachers Hermono Hollenbaugh in english and I felt so much better about that. Sunday was great because people were all, Don't worry about the language! I mean, study as hard as you can but don't stress about it! It'll come. and that was really good to hear. I need to really focus on the lessons and doctrine because if I can't teach it well in english I wouldn't be able to in spanish.
I was so surprised and happy to get your letter and package! The picture of dad made me super happy and I commented on your tech-savy-ness.
Oh! I've seen Clark and Scott and Tanner Skousen(sp?). More really just SAW them but I said words to Scott so that was good. I'm so sorry the pattern was out! Mallory should be pretty cool about it though. Oh yeah, I sat next to mostly other Hermanas, like Hermana Jensen and Hermana Vaughn(I'm friends with Nikki Vaughn on facebook so she may have some pictures posted at one point, maybe not, not sure.) and they are really fun to be with. Today in P day but no temple trip because it is C-L-O-S-E-D. Very sad. I'll talk to the guy about postmart, that's a really nice... perk? And no, you are not bugging me too much. Never ever would you be able to do that :)
Aline came huh? Wow. Oh! Argentina and Brazil do not like each other. At all. Like the Argentines may kill me if I ask them if they're from Brazil (or mexico). The rest of this week should be good. I'm learning a lot and actally finding time to write in my journal now so that's good. The other two girls in my room are leaving on Wednesday and the other one next week and that means Hermana Bingham and I are moving DOWN to the bottom bunk. Top bunk is not good :P. Well I'm about out of time, Oh! again! It's better to write me through Dearelder because I'll get it the same day as opposed to P day which is only once a week. I'll try and answer all your questions and tell you what I'm doing but I only get 30 mins on the computer a week.
I love you and all the family. This gospel is so good. It changes lives and provides strength, relief and happiness.
Love
Hermana Pixton.
