hey mom! yes dying in PA is a very grand opportun haha baylon died here and her trainer died her so i gotta keep up the tradishh (tradition) but my greenie is good! her name is sister falkner and she is from sandy, ut and she does remind me of myself as a greenie and its cool because i can see how different i am. she says she wants to believe God is real and is out here to see it in action. which was what i wanted to see. i need experiences to show me that God was real. so we've had a lot of fun. eljin didnt get baptized.. YET! kabreena is living with him and thats agains the LOC (law of chastity) so we gotta get that all figured out and when eljin mentioned it to her she wasn't exactly thrilled... and oh my gosh i just forgot the best news that i have that happened last week on p-day!!! MOM I SAW A WHALE IN THE WILD!!!!!!!!!! it was NUTSSSS! i freaked out and ran down the beach after it like a child and if you know anything about the beaches here in washington they are rocky beaches and so i was running on huge rocks and almost tore a ligament (sp?) i'm sure but it was soooo coooL!!!!!!!  it jumped out of the water and then we just sat there and followed it down the beach. man it was nuts!! it made me so happy cause that was one of my goals before the end of the transfer to see a whale in the wild haha but anyways! this week we had a lot of meetings and we have been doing a lot of finding which is fun. i just make my greenie do everything hah jk i'll ask her oh hey wanna knock on this door and she'll say no your doing a really good job at this. and i just think well i hope i'm doing good i've been doing this for 18 months... haha but dont worry i just knock on the door and tell her its her turn and she does juuuust fine. but bakc to eljin (sorry im pretty sure ADD is contagious) but eljin reallly realllly wants to be baptized and kabreena doesnt really have a whole lot of options on where to live so we are trying to help them out. eljin is just so awesome! lets see lets see.... what else happened.... i dont remember haha other then we went to tacoma twice and we knocked a lot of doors... but it was a good week! stayinf busy working hard. welp i love you and enjoy your art classs! love tay
