Transfers were good. I hated leaving Mannheim, but its gotta happen. My new comp is Elder Decker, who goes home in 4 weeks. Yeah, we´ve got some investigators, and one guy with a baptismal date. We´re getting along fine. The branch is good, but i haven't introduced myself yet cuz the branch president wanted to wait till fast Sunday. We have bikes, and it rains ALL THE TIME so its taking a little adjusting. Our apartment is a mansion. Its soooo nice, ill have to send pics. We´re also on the 8th floor of a building, so we have a nice view of the city, which was way cool for New Years. And who says I'm not happy? I'm doing fine. Talking to home had nothing to do with anything. I just never know what to say, and i was wicked tired. I was just upset about being transferred, but other than that I'm fine. And yes, I thought that joke was kinda funny lol. But yeah, nothing much to talk about.
JOKE Alex is referring to:
Three friends die in a car accident and they go to an orientation in heaven. They are all asked, "When you are in your casket and friends and family are mourning you, what would you like to hear them say about you? The first guy says,"I would like to hear them say that I was a great doctor, and a great family man." The second guy says, "I would like to hear that I was a wonderful husband and school teacher which made a huge difference in our children of tomorrow." The last guy replies, "I would like to hear them say ... "Look, He's moving!"
OH, for i forget, heres my address:
Friedenstraße 55 a/WNr. 61
67657 Kaiserslautern

So, I figure Id just call you real quick on Sunday to figure out what time we should skype. E. Keetch is skyping home at 5:30 (here time) which is 11:30 your time, so Ill prolly get to you at 7:30 here time (1:30 you time). Bishop has free calls to the US, so maybe Ill call during church or somethng. But yeah, im excited. The Christmas songs are mostly the same here, a couple differences, like how its in german haha but it doesnt translate the same into English. I just got the package from the Gardners yesterday,(nice surprise) but nothing from you guys yet. Its okay, i dont really want anything. haha Id love to drop Travis off at the MTC when he goes!! Thatd be sweet. Yeah, Giselle should just write me lol...just sayin. Eh, its okay. Our chirstmas party was pretty good. But I dont wanna say too much, im talking to you guys in a week, so im not really gunna say much so TSCHÜß

I think we've been sick just cuz the weather has been all over the place here. Lots of rain, no snow. I hate it. Yeah, we went to the temple with our ward on Saturday. But, for whatever reason, E. Keetch and I wernt aloud to get in the water. They (the temple people) said we´d swim away, which doesnt make any sense, cuz as missionaries, we baptize people. So we just did the confirmations and I got to be the tauf recorder. It was pretty cool. We then went out for chinese. I got squid. It wasnt fried kalimari like I thought itd be, it was legit squid. It was pretty good. But later that night, we were at a baptisim for a girl in our ward, and the squid destroyed me. I spent alot of time on the toilet lol. On Friday we went caroling with some members from the ward. It was also pretty cool. Not much else happened this week. I need a time that ýou´re gunna be able to skype. Bishop said we could do it at his house, so we just need a time. Its in 2 weeks. gah. Hey, do you want any cool German thing for christmas? Ill give you a list of things to look up and you can decide from there:
-Raucherman
-Nutkracker
-Pyramid
-a house for your christmas village
