Feb 16: You get to meet lots of new phusaansaadsanaa (missionaries) going to many different places. You can't believe how many phusannsaadsanaa are going to Thailand. Like over 40-50. You have 3 hr long classes and 4 hour long study periods. Food is alright here, no asian food though. I met lots of new friends, especially from my district. My companion is Elder Roberts, he's a nice guy and he knows a lot about the gospel and how to teach. I got to go do sessions at the Provo Temple today. (I asked him about Valentine's day) Val...Single Awareness Day was alright I guess. I got free cookies and candy and such, even though I'm trying to reduce my sugar intake. I started speaking Thai on the very first day. Phom chxx Elder Chanthakhoun Khab (My name is Elder Chanthakhoun). Phom ben tuatEEn khoon(g) phrayeesuukhrid (I am representative of Jesus Christ). 555 (HaaHaaHaa) thats Thai LoL.
Mar 9: I'm doing well here at the oh so fabulous MTC. I can almost speak like really good, somewhat decent Thai now. Most english speaking missionaries only stay here for a week and a half. We have to stay here for 9. The MTC has really good Sunday and Tuesday Evening devotionals. Yesterday's devo was about the Holy Ghost. It was a really good talk. That's all I can really think about the MTC at the moments. It is really repetitive in the MTC but this place is good place to learn.
Mar 16: I have to tell you of this funny story about me. So during last night's Devo, the speaker asked a volunteer to state our missionary purpose. When they panned the camera to the volunteer, apparently I was in on the big screen. I wasn't paying attention the screen at all and I was making this funky face. When everyone saw my face, most of the crowd was laughing. Oh my potato chips, that was embarassing.
