Hey
You know kenyans, and TZ both dont care about time. Like at all. Its just there. If you tell someone to be here at this time they wont show up till like 45 minutes to 2 hours past the time. And its ok cause they are in no hurry. And i have to say even me im starting to be like that. You know i hope people at home will be cool with that. Just you know there is no hurry in africa. And its ok, everytime we have an appoitment, you expect the person to be late. And if they ever tell a time like 20 minutes away, you just add another 20 minutes to that and thats the actual time they will come. So basically if they say 20 minutes they mean 40 or more. But you know dad thats waht i love about africa, there is not rush. I dont know what everyones rush is anyways. Just cool a bit and enjoy life. Why are we always rushing somewhere. Just chill. And as for the accent well i cant promise that i wont have one, when i come home. Ha when pres. daughter came here with her husband, he was telling me that i have an accent. And so did the tuttles. And they can understand me kind of. Now that im thinking about it i did have to repeat myself a few times. But not too bad i think. And thats pretty awesome i have a new cousin. Im super excited for uncle john. I hope you tell him congrats for me. But anyways, in kenya i had a pretty good week. We had some confirmations done, and it left me pretty happy. This was our first week of real work, you know no interuptions, esh last week was to much busy. Ya though now for me's and muntasi, we are now looking for somemore people to teach. And on sunday we got some referrals, man i love members in our ward. They just know when they need to help us out, pretty awesome. So yesterday too was good. We were at elder usi's house. His daughter is leaving the U.S. She going to attend BYU-Idaho. She seems pretty excited for it. So she invited us over for dinner. And you know it was nice, but they be big peoples there. And all i can say was it was awesome. And you know it was fun. But ya other than that my week was pretty boring. We manly just stuck to finding people. You know contacting at all that fun stuff. I never relized though how rude someone can be when you go up to talk to them. There are some real jerks out there. But you know me i cant let someone get the best of me. So ill mess with someone if they are being a jerk. But you know i never really thought about some of that stuff. And i realize back home, i would never go up to someone and just start talking to them. And now you know it just comes naturally. Kinda cool. But ya that was pretty much my week. And by the ways me and munatsi are still having fun. Fetch i love serving with him. I think that why the lord wanted us to serve together again. But anyways, ya thats me for this week. I hopes you yourself have an awesome week. And whoever reads this. Oh by the ways i just thought of something i have now starting to say hello with an s on it. Also how are you with an s on it. I think im turning more kenyan. I just say it now i dont even think about it. Kinda weird. But anyways i talk to you next week.
love, matt.
