It feels kinda weird to write an email right now, and I dont know why. But yeah, things are going good here. I was just in Wesel while Elder Hansen was at a leadership training meeting in Dortmund for 2 days. I got to stand on the shores of the Rhein. But it rained for both the days I was there. Yeah, skype was pretty sweet.  By the way, for some unknown reason, our ward mission leader (the guy that you talked to) just went  inactive on Sunday. Know one knows why. He´s not taking calls from anyone from the church, he doesnt want a calling, nothing. He´s only gunna come for Sacrament. It kinda stinks a lot. And yeah, we cant contact people that might be muslim (which is everyone up here), or have any relation whatsoever. Its not that scary here...yet. Elder Hansen and I are doing great. He´s not even trunky, which is weird, cuz Im really trunky. Im not sure why, but these past 2 days Ive just wanted to be home doing something else. I want to come home, but I dont. Its kinda aggravating. 
The Glen Beck thing sounds sweet! Tell him I said hi! I havnt checked stuff for my license yet, because I havnt had the oppertunity to anmeld into Solingen yet, but I think we´re doing that real soon. I dont think I have to pay all that money again. They should just transfer all the information up here, and I can continue with my stuff. HERES MY ADDRESS:
 
Eiland 8
42651 Solingen
 
yeah, so ive been thinking about my birthday...lol. No, but really. Its gunna sound pretty outrageous, but read it out first: I want (not need, but would be cool to have, and if I dont have one I wont die), a 3rd Generation 32 gig Ipod Touch. THE REASON: Its small, portable, and you can put "LDS Apps" on it, which has EVERY church manual (except for the bishops manual), plus scriptures. So I can have more room in my backpack, I can look-up scripture refrences way fast, and If we need a scripture in a certain language for an investigator, it has, like, everything. Its the perfect missionary tool. The LDS APP only cost like $7, and I was looking on Amazon (dont kill me) to see how cheap they went for, because the new ones (4th generation) are €300, and on Amazon I saw one for $145 USED- i dont need a brand new one, and if you can find one for cheaper do it lol. But yeah, thats whats on the list. Like I said, if not possible dont worry about it. But it would be way helpful, AND usable after my mission. And maybe some Raman noodles too :D
 
Yeah, i cant think of anything else. We had Zone Conference last week in Düsseldorf, that was neat. And I had a split with one of the Zone leaders, that was neat too. I had actual A&W soda and REESES cuz they live right next to an international store. Um, I think thats all. Ill write again in a few days (on monday), so you can tell me about the prom, and what your thoughts are for the first of June, 2011. K, i talk to you later. Tschüß
