4th Edition of Elder Wilde's Top Ten

Oh and we successfully pulled off an all spanish day on Tuesday!!!!! All spanish, from the end of service until devotional. I still ended up doing 30 pushups as punishment for speaking some english though.
Oh and with regards to my new workout routines, I have already started seeing results, I HAVE PECS AGAIN!!!!!! And my arms are getting thicker!!!!!!!
So on that happy note, its time for the
4th EDITION OF ELDER WILDES TOP 10!!!!!!
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. I LEAVE IN 3 1/2 weeks!!!!!!! WOOT!!!!!
2. I've grown a lot closer to my district, we really do get along very well, and after devotionals, well we call them Bawling Tuesdays.
3.The weather is absolutley beautiful in Utah, really, just throwing that out there.
4. I am working very hard right now, to learn how to teach, and the language. Both are coming along very well right now.
5. Still pondering to an extent what should I study ofter my mission is over. I have some things narrowed down, but still a long ways from being sure.
6. I do miss Elder Anderson a lot, but I'm sure he's doing great in the Peru MTC.
7. Life in the MTC is extremely structered. A lot more than what I'm used to. Its kinda like a prison. A beautiful prison, but a prison nonetheless.
8. I'm sometimes saying things in spanish instead of english, just out of habit. For example, last night, instead of saying "but", I said "pero", which is the spanish word for but. That's interesting.
9. Some things that people have been saying to me regarding my knowledge of the Spanish language have been huge self-esteem boosts. I've seriously learned more Spanish here in 5 weeks than I have in 5 years of Spanish in school.
10. I LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL!!!!!!!!! Thank you for your prayers and your support!!!!!!!
With all my love,
Elder Kevin Ammon Wilde

3rd Week at the MTC - June 2, 2011

Good to hear from you!!!!

Well, this has been quite a week!!!!

WELL.....its been quite emotionally draining!!!!

but yeah...Elder Anderson left on Wednesday morning to go to the Peru MTC...so our trio is down to 2.... (lion king reference)

Thats actually quite depressing for me because we just clicked so well. We are so similar. He actually appreciates my Jim Gaffigan jokes!!!!

But yeah, so my first 2 bawling experiences were this week. First was when I was praying on Sunday night, I don’t know why, but I don’t think I’ve prayed harder in my life, and yes, I bawled while I was praying!!!! And then the second was on Tuesday, we had a testimony meeting after devotional and it was a goodbye to Elder Anderson, and it was extremely spiritual, and I bawled again!!!! WHAT THE HECK?????? This never happens!!!!!!!!! So now its just me and Elder Painter, and were doing pretty well, but its just not the same....\

Thanks for the package Dan and Michelle!!!! I got it just before I wrote this!!!! I hope the baby is doing well!!!!!

And now its time for TOP 10 #3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you thank you!!!!!!

No really sit down!!!

#1 Elder Anderson left on Tuesday, and it was extremely sad!!!! Wait, why is this #1???? Ugh....

#2 ITS NOW JUNE!!!!!!!! Where has time gone?????? Especially the time on writing this!!!!!!

#3 I'm now over my sickness, although it got worse before it got better. I had an experience with diarrhea but I'll spare you the lovely details

#4 Why are the top 3 depressing things???? I thought this was supposed to be TOP 10, not bottom 10!!!!

#5 My district is becoming a lot closer now, although some things I've learned about other members of my district, quite frankly, I wish I didnt know

#6 I MET JASON BOURNE!!!!!!! Not really, just an elder that lives a few doors down from me look EXACTLY like Matt Damon

#7 Time is dang flying by now, its becoming crazy

#8 Spanish is hard, but I'm learning it

#9 I wish I could write emails more often, but I cant, heck I wish I had more than 30 minutes!!!

#10 I miss you all!!!!! I cant tell you how much, just keep writing me!!!!!!

Love,

Your Elder in the MTC
