Personal day #4

Did you forget it was P-Day? haha anyways Im doing well here at the MTC, my one month anniversary of entering the MTC is coming up like tomorrow, its pretty crazy how long ive been stuck here, and I still have 5 more weeks to go... uuuughghhhghg last night an Elder Perkins from the 70 spoke to us in a devotional, he was the previous missionary president for the Taiwan Taipei mission... and he talked a lot about how AWESOME it was in Taiwan... I WANNA GO ALREADY! I dont care how my chinese is right now, I just want to go haha, the food here is beginning to lose taste except for the apple juice and the bacon which I ate 35 strips of this morning (we got to late breakfast and they just gave me all the bacon that was left) it was delicious. the next district above us is leaving on Friday, theyve been here since December 18th, theyre ready to leave. but they are so cool that im going to be sad to see another district leave. all the yingwens (english speakers) are complaining about their 12 day stay here at the MTC and I pity and envy them. they know not of the hardships faced by the mandarin, Thai, Russian, Japanese, and the SEAL families face. (SEAL's are south eastern asian languages) I love you all back home, and Im glad to hear from a few more individuals through dearelder.com it makes me happy every time I get a single one, I'd like to thank everyone especially the Mendenhall family for sending all the Dear Elders, Tony, I'm still waiting to complete the set. youre the only one I havent heard from yet. I'll be waiting. I'd like the Thank the Parry's for sending me cookies, the hand drawn pictures, and the mints(: I love you guys and miss you, I hope you all are doing well and are all happy. Im loving how much more mail ive been getting, its awesome. class is still going well, the chinese is still coming i suppose, our lessons are getting better and better day by day so I'm getting excited to actually get out there and teach. I dont know what else to say, Love you all,

Elder Dexter
