so i survived my first week in my first area. It was pretty sweeet. japan is way cool. I still dont understand anything that anyone says but its alright. im studying and trying to learn the language but its going to take some time. The food is way good and way weird though. I dont know what im eating ever but i just eat. So its interesting but good. we had a dinner appointment last night actually, it hurts my legs to sit on the floor for so long. haha. the tables are so low and we sit through dinner and spiritual message. its tough.
We havent really taught anybody but yesterday we had sunday school and lunch at our little eikaiwa room in beppu cause theres no church in beppu. Everyone thought it was a party so we had 4 eikaiwa students come out of like 12 and we have a teaching apt because of it so it will be my first.
i got my bike this week it is sweet, it just wish i could use it on mountain trails, but its cool, so i actually got to see beppu, cause we could go somewhere farther then our classroom. well we do a lot of finding and housing its pretty tough but my trainer is pretty cool so we have fun too.
Theres so many people. We went to this really cool place in beppu and talked to this lady that was buddhist, it was in a place filled with onsens she told us that we should stop studying jesus and study onsens and invited us to go. it was interesting and funny. i made friends with one of our eikaiwa students he likes music hes like 27 but looks way young he plays his guitar at the eki. so maybe someday hell want us to teach him. i forgot his name though cause i cant remember anyones name in japan, there all crazy hard, i think i know only one name of a ward member, his name is okada hes so old but way good at ping pong its nuts, i need to play him.
so my apartment is pretty cool, i like everyone. get along with everyone, its prettty fun. we went to a yakiniku last p day and it was pretty sweet you just cook your meat at the table that was prettty fun. and we also went to a sushi bar, there a little conveyer belt that moves by all the tables and you just take little plates with sushi on them off, then at the end they count your plates each plate is 100 yen like a buck. it was sweet.
So my japanese is coming, its fun to try to talk to people, people listen to me more than my comp cause my japanese is so bad haha but eventually they shut the door on me. haha its fun though. its tough. But there are people here that are ready just have to find them, its hard work but fun as well. its frustrating because they dont get it. they dont even know how much this gospel would bless them if the just listened. I wouldnot be here in japan if these things werent true. if joseph Smith never saw God and Jesus Christ i wouldnt be here. The restored church is on the earth today and that why im here, to share that with them to help them. We know the path to obtain never ending happiness, i wish they could see it that way but everyone has there agency.
anyways I still cant believe im in japan still, its crazy. nothing is the same here. all the people are small and speak a weird language called japanese, it hurts my head oh and tonight we are going to kunamoto for zone conference tomorrow so that should be cool. so thats about it for my week, finally got settled things are good, im so tired everynight i fall asleep instantly, and this week has gone by so fast.
well anyway way i think thats about it. have a great weeek and ill talk to you next week, its a some kind oif holiday so i hope we can find a place to email. we should be able to we just might have to pay anyway, take it easy
愛してますよ Martinez 長老
