Well, life is good.  We didn't do much for the 1st, I cooked food, but none of it worked out.  The french toast didn't have flavor, and the no bake cookies well, lets just say a stick of butter is a lot bigger here.  I used 250g which is about 16 tbsp. so they tasted like butter, they were bad.  But I bought some Pringles, they were 5 dollars, but they were amazing.

At night on the 31st it was so loud, there was so much music, and they have fireworks here.  But everyone just uses these fireworks that don't have any light, they are just loud bangs.  So it was an interesting night.  During the day it was fine when we went to lunch, but walking back to our house a lot of girls were giving us interesting looks, so we quickly got back to our house.  All the men dress up as women and stop cars and dance in front of them and don't let the cars pass until they give them money.  It is really weird.

I´ve been a little sick this past week, but it has been on and off.  I know I'm starting to go crazy because, one day, we were driving with a member and I thought we were going to die at how fast he was driving.  But then I looked at the speedometer and it said 45km/h, that is 27 mph.  I'm going to die when I go back to Utah.

My Spanish is coming along.  Sorry I don't have much to say, but I love you guys a lot and hope you have a great week.  I have pictures, just the computer is being dumb so I will try next time.  I love you guys.
