5/3/2011 News From Mount Si!!!

Hey Family,
Things are great here, we had a great day yesterday, that is why we did not have p-day yesterday. So yesterday elder Yoshihiko Kikuchi of the seventy came to the mission and talked to us from like 1-5:30 pm,that was a very long meeting. I can still feel my brains a little fried, but other than that it was a great meeting, we talked about how to become master teachers of he Gospel, he wants us to spend half hour each companionship study memorizing the concepts of each lesson, and then he wants us to learn the 5 10 and 30-40 minute version of each of them as well, so like 9 total, arg, shall see how that goes, I am very bad at memorizing stuff like that, so yeah. Talk to ya next Sunday and have a great week.
Love,
Elder O'Brien

Hi Family,
Doing good. Oh about my comp yes he has been out shorter time that I have. He's only been out for nine month not even a year, man if I still had that much time left I would slit my wrists and do push ups in salt water, just kidding, just kidding, figuratively speaking it would not be fun to be him and not me, and did I say he is also a district leader, and yes it has been very nice not having to make all the decisions so yeah lets see how long president will keep me junior, probably for this transfer only, and then I'll be senior again who knows what president is thinking these days great man.
Love ya,
Elder O'Brien
