So ya i got to Eldoret somehow with all my stuff. Ha i did not get the bus to here this time. They put me on a matatu with all my stuff and ya that was kinda scary. They tied my big bag on the roof and i was worried it was going to fly off since the driver was feeling crazy and wanted to drive super fast around every corner. But ya somehow made it. Ha they crammed it with people to. I had my guitar in between my legs and a guy next to me getting to close for comfort. Ya was not that comfortable of a ride. But i made it. Me and my comp have been put into a threesome till wed. When my zone leader comp comes. So ya we have been enjoying that threesome. So ya Saturday we had to help him with all the small things he needed to do. So that meant carrying a 60 pound gas tank to the sisters which had to have been like a mile and half or 2 miles, I don't know why he wanted to walk but he did. Anyways that was fun. And then it rained making everywhere muddy. Esh scary i i thought i was going to fall. It looks we will be living at the zone leaders flat for a couple of weeks since our flat is not ready. And so that means i stay here and sleep on the ground till we can move into our place. You know I miss having my own bed and not just a tiny mattress. Anyways though that's mission and these things are just there.

So ya imagine this place is cold. Like freezing cold. Like wow I'm gonna die cold. Ya i don't know how people live here. Its always so cold. And it rains alot leaving the place very muddy. Like very muddy. And that's not fun to walk around in. I know before i leave this place that i will fall. Esh i've already had a couple of close falls and i've only been here two days. Esh i don't like mud. And here there are not too many paved roads. So ya i better get used to it. Anyways as for the area, ya we are still learning it. The sisters helped us out for a few hours but i just hope i can remember all the places they showed me. Ha but for now its just walking around trying to figure out where we are. But i hope this week will be better. I know all we do is walk around and try to find people investigators or members. Ha ya me im just worried if i can even find my area. And esh people call this phone like crazy. And its driving me crazy. Anyways though ya should be fun this week.

So ya my comp is cool though. He is new on mission, 4 months out. Ha ya but he is cool though he is a good worker. Anyways though ya not too much to say for this week. Ill give you the update next week. But for now just now that eldoret is cold and muddy. Esh i die in the mornings. Its freaking cold. I dont know what ill do when i get to Utah. Anyways though my comp is cool though. ESh he is cool i like him, he is a hard worker but still likes to joke around and have fun. So it works for me. I dont like having those work hard, serous, no fun, no emotion people. Ah not for me. I like to joke around and have fun sometimes. But i know those people, esh they are not humans they don't even smile. But ya luckily my comp is cool. It should be a fun transfer for us trying to figure out the area. Anyways though ya that's it for this week.
