Time passes incredibly fastly slow here. I feel like I've been here for at least a month, but it's only been 1 week!
Today another group of Elders and Sisters arrive, and they all get stickers to let us know that they are new, and I get to be the one saying 'Welcome to the MTC,' over and over again.
The beginning of the week sucked because our schedule was printed wrong, so our entire zone was lost until they got us a new schedule on Saturday. Also, there are no Italians here except us, (or Romanians) so our Italimanian Branch has no leaders, and we all kind of make stuff up when we have no answers.
Like, today, we did laundry, but nobody in our Zone knew where it was, so we all just wandered and asked until we found it.
Our branch presidency is amazing, they all speak Italian except one counselor, and they are all fun and nice to talk to.
My district is composed of Me, my companion, Elder Mortezazadeh (More-teh-zah-zaday) from Highland UT, and the other companionship, Elder Cowden from Holiday UT, and Elder Segura from Houston TX. They are great guys, and were already good friends. The only problem I can see is that they are all Body Builder types. 2 play rugby and they do like 75 pushups a night.

I kind of miss Layton, but every time I think about it, I realize I don't miss it at all. There's no babysitting, and no Dairy Queen, and I get to sleep in until 6:30.
The food is better than Northridges, but worse than Mom's, but the worst food they have is the Italian food.
On Saturday we have service (we vacuumed), and then Sunday we had a devotional and watched Character of Christ by David A Bednar, it was great!
Tuesday (yesterday) we went to the Italian consulate (in SLC?) and we took the train to get all our papers in order, then, that night, Quentin L. Cook talked to us about missionary work. It's amazing to see what an apostle can do with the spirit.
Now I want to open my mouth and Invite, invite, invite.
This whole week we've been teaching Claudio (a role-play investigator) in Italian. Somehow, we can understand him, and we've been teaching him great!
The only thing I love more is Language study, I already have pages of Vocab memorized!
Anyway, sorry about the disjointed letter. I have to go! Ciao!
