Chase made it safe and sound to the MTC! Here is his first e-mail and a picture from a kind stranger on his plane!
Hi! I guess Wednesdays are the P days here so I get to
send emails every wednesday while Im here at the MTC. I am running off
of 1 and a half hours of sleep and I am so exhausted! We started spanish
class the second we got into the MTC. I was the first person to arrive
in my district for about half an hour three teachers were just talking
to me only in spanish. It was pretty crazy! I already more confident
about the language though. My teachers all seem really smart so far, and
seem really nice and helpful.
The food here is pretty good. It
reminds me of living in the dorms and eating at the cannon. The food,
trays, cups, and everything are exactly the same. I am really not
looking forward to waking up at 6:30 tomorrow morning. I know that isnt
going to be enough sleep with how crazy my day has been today. Its
already such an adjustment. Calling people elder and sister is really
throwing me off. Luckily everybody who works here is super nice and is
always willing to help (and they are almost all like 7000 years old) so I
havent been too confused finding where everything is.
My
companion seems really cool. He is from Arizona and went to BYU last
fall. We have a lot of things in common and we are about the same skill
level in spanish.
I hope you havent worried about me too
much! Things are all well here, and I didnt have any difficulties
figuring out what to do to get here. Ive already made friends, and im
feeling pretty comfortable here.
Hope you all havent shed too many tears!
Love you,
Elder Abel
