Guess what? I got to go tour a submarine
this morning! It was sweet. It was an Ohio class sub, the kind that
carry those trident missiles to blow up ornery countries. (Sidenote: I
love the word ornery. I use it a lot more than necessary in my day to day
language. Shenanigans is another keeper)
It was pretty tight. figuratively and literally. (haha)
Anyways,
week was good :) We got transfer calls, Elder T is going to Tacoma,
I'm staying here and getting former AP Elder B. I'm nervous, but it
will be a really good learning experience I'm sure, I hear he's a great
guy, and a stellar missionary.
We're also having twins! that's right, double training boys! It
will be an adventure. Especially since an enhanced sense of direction
isn't one of the talents I've developed on my mission, and we're getting
3 new people, which makes a total of 4 who don't know where anything
is. I can always find my way back to Little Caesars, though. That's kind
of my anchor, and I branch out from there.
Guys I'm really sorry, but extenuating circumstances
(legitimate ones this time) left me with only a few minutes to email, so
this will be short, but I want to talk about one more thing briefly
that's been on my mind.
I really like my heroes. I really like having them, they are fun
to have, and they give me ideals :) In the past I've looked up to
MacGyver, Ace Enders, David Belle, and tons of other people. On my
mission, I continue to admire MacGyver a lot, but I've developed a lot
of new heroes: Captain Moroni, Teancum, Mormon, and tons of others. I love my new heroes and I love my old heroes. I don't
have a perfect definition for Hero, but I think it would be something
along the lines of someone who you look up to (to whom you look up?
still a dangling preposition?) someone you respect, admire, someone who
motivates you to be better, and gives you a hope you can be more than
what you were/are. My favorite hero is my dad.
