no, i will not share it with any of you. its mine.
this week has been freaking insane. romance, adventure, thrill, suspense, and heartbreak. all in one week!!!! it's been a wild ride, so hold on tight as i try to paint the wonderful picture that is week 5 at the MTC.
so a new group of Thai missionaries came in last week and the group is full of real thirsty sisters. all week I've been fighting them off as they try to get at least a small piece of this manly piece of meat. one by one they have tried and failed as my newly found missionary instincts allow me to be more awkward and lady-repelling than ever. also the 15 extra pounds helps for that.
all the Cantonese missionaries left for Hong Kong this morning and my favorite Swede, Oqvist, left me too. it's alright because he said i can marry his sister when i get home. I've never seen a pic of her but i know she's hot because she's Swedish. everybody loves Swedish girls, right? or is that Swedish fish..... idk. same thing.
this week Elder Slavens and I have been having competitions of who can super glue the weirdest part of their body to another part of their body. fingers to everything, toes to toes, and even earlobes. the winner as of right now is Elder Slavens by super-gluing one of his nostrils shut. i have to beat him now, so if you have any suggestions let me know.
speaking of Elder Slavens, he's our new zone leader.... lol. we are going to have the weirdest zone of all time. i love it. last night for his inauguration we took 15 tattoos and put them all over his back. every leader needs tattoos right????? i think so.
WE ESCAPED THE MTC!!!!!!!!!
for 2 glorious hours my companions and i got to ride off into the sunset through BYU campus and straight to the dentist's office because Elder Maurer had a dry socket or something. I'm thankful that he's such a baby because without his 7 year old girl-like pain tolerance we wouldn't have gotten out at all. the real world is magical and everything I've hoped and dreamed of. I'm so excited to be there one day.

SPIRITUAL SHPEEL: Heavenly Father doesn't usually give you any answers if you don't have a question. this week i learned how important it is to have a question in mind as you study the scriptures and pray. i learned that whenever I study it's best if I write a question down that I am wondering about. it can be anything. if I have a question then my studying has a purpose. i find that i get so many more answers from the scriptures when i am actively looking for them. my favorite scripture of this week is Alma 40:11-14. way cool.
anyway, g2g.
elder Lambert is the new DL and he's ruling with an iron fist.
i love you all. pray for me.
love,
Elder Osborne.
