The weeks are starting to go by faster and its getting bettter and better here except the fact that the food is still straight aids. Its so bad. Last thursday i went and got a hair cut and its a little shorter then I wanted but its probably for the best. Saturday we thought the BYU game was at night so we all got out of class and went to the top of T4 which is the new building and from the top you can see all of utah and we were gonna try and watch some but we got up there and realized the game was at 1 and had been over for a really long time which sucked but we ended up with a bunch of kids from our zone and just sat around and told stories and it was way fun. Sunday all the DL and ZL got released because we were getting new kids so I am no longer DL and I didnt get a new calling so I am just cruising the next three weeks. During the temple walk that afternoon it was Elder Rigby and Slyvesters last one so they told people to come and see them so I got to meet two of their friends that are going to UVU which was actually quite enjoyable. its nice to meet people who arent wearing a nametag and just want to know where you are from and where you are going. I also ran into President Cusick. I know he sent mallory a picture but he was actually way cool. He talked to me for a while and said mallory was the best missionary so I get that was good. That night we went and watch the old teastament movie. I think I have seen that before but it was still really good.
Prolly two weeks ago while Elder Rigby was doing service he found 14 squirt guns. They were in this trashbag that was in the trash so he took them out and kept them. So for the last two weeks at random times we would just get soaked and he thought it was the funniest thing. So tuesday night the night before he left we went into his room and took all the guns while he wasnt there and oh boy he got it. Its so enjoyable just knocking on someones door and screaming "Mga misioneryo Taopo!" which means the missionaries are here and when they open the door just soak them. Nothing but good times.
On the spiritual side last night was probably the best. Bro. Giblette our teacher sat us all down and we went over the First vision and all about it and it was so good. We are working on memorizing the first vision in Tagalog which is super long. (words in tagalog are super long so like in church meeting on sundays the sacrament prayer goes so long its awful. like the single word faith is Pananampalataya.) anyways he had us all resight it one by one and then he told us it was good but he challenged us to read it with more pauses and truly visiualize what Joseph was doing and so we did it with companionships and then after we kinda all bore are testimony. The spirit was so strong it was almost tangible.
On the sad part the top part of our zone left yesterday. so no more rigby and slyvester. Elder Labrum and I are going to have to host auditions for new best friends. But they flew from SLC to LAX and then they had a big layover till one oclock this morning and then they got on a plane to Hong Kong. So they are still flying and will be flying till about 4 or 5 this afternoon. I am really not looking forward to that. On the bright side because they all left we got all their stuff so our room now has 2 basketball hoops which is dope.
I hope you are all doing well! Thank you for all the letters and packages and prayers! I really appreciate them.
Love,
Elder gsack

Meet our classroom people. Paige is our class girlfriend. her name is paige because we wanted to name her page 33 from the white bible but page 33 isnt a catchy name. Steve and Unis are our mom and dad and then we have snoop the freak dawg which is our pet. You can tell we get really bored in class sometimes
