Hey you guys! Thank you for your letters this week! It´s keeping me sain. So much has changed this week.
First off, I love my new companion, Hermana Beecher. She´s pretty rad. She´s like a foot taller than me and from Arizona. (Gringa... girl next door type) Also it´s kinda strange because I´m learning more spanish with her than I did with Hermana Irala. haha Oh the irony! But she´s super chevere! And a fantastic missionary. With mucho animado to mejorar our sector. (Sorry, I forgot how to explain that sentence in English... ) So things are great between us. Also, Hermana Jerónimo recieved her new comp... so there are 4 of us again in the casa. 3 gringas and 1 latina. It´s kin of ironic, Now she knows how I felt for 3 months. haha But her new comp is super cool as well.
Speaking of time on my mission... I have a lot more than I thought. I have casi 3 months here in Ecuador. I´m on my 12th week here. So I´m finishing my 12 semanas training at the end of this week. And with the CCM, I have 4 1/2 months on my mission. This October I´ll only have 1 more year here in Ecuador. It´s actually going a heck of a lot faster than I thought it would.
This week we didn´t get to teach much... because it´s bien loco aqui! haha I´ve had a meeting or conference everyday this week. And on top of that, I was sick. That was somewhat kinda fun. Lemme explain, because of my new calling, I was the person that got to diagnose myself. hehehe Also my medical training was fun! It´s been so long since I´ve used a bp cuff and stethascope! Estoy feliz!
I´m not sure, but it sounds like I´ll be in this new calling for 6 months or more. It´ll be interesting because my comp only has 7 months left of her mission. So it looks like she´ll finish off her mission with me. So tha´s pretty cool. I{m glad she´s the one I´m stuck with for the next 6 months though. I´m pretty stoked for a new area tambien. Since we have to be closer to the main office, we have to move districts. New church, new people, new Zone. But that´ll be kind of weird... because our new zone is all of the assistantes. But they´re pretty cool as well.
Oh! I have a photo!!

Those are all the pics that I have for today. Also I´m out of time... again. ugh! This week has been great! It´s been wonderful to hear from you guys! I´m glad you´re doing well and living the gospel. To answer a few quick questions: I don't have the bat pics... it was a night and we didn't have it on flash... so it´s just a really dark grey screen (that I look fondly at, remembering the awesome time I had holding that bat.) haha I know, super sad. But I search every night for another bat. haha I´m doing well. I´m tired and super tan but loving life. Especially now that I get to study a bit more of medicine. The food here is sometimes really good. My favorite food is paticones and 1 other thing I don´t know how to write. haha My comp is awesome! Ok. I´m out of time. Love you all! Keep the faith! And help out the missionaries in your ward! We need it! haha
