"February...I would have to say that is sure weird. Time is sure flying. Today was a good one though, and I had a good time. This morning, I got up a bit late, but that is because we stayed up fairly late last night finishing the map. We got it done, so that is good, but we headed off for a tough day. We stopped by to a store where they have a tone of discs and they are way cheap. After that we went to some more stores, and I found some good stuff. We then went to play pool, but I didn't play because I am not a huge fan. I went with them and just ate some bread that I bought. I watched some guys playing slot machines and thought of how much a wast those games are. They just suck people in. We went and wrote home, and I typed the talk up in Russian by President Benson. It is a lot of work, but it will be worth it in the end. We had English, and there was a couple of girls there, and that was cool. We sang in choir, but that didn't mean much. We came home, and are getting ready to take off to Samara. The joys of the mission. Time sure flies."

Exchanges
29 December 2005
"Today was pretty sweet day with Boster, and we had a good time chattin. He is such a good guy, and he wants to do the best he can as a missionary. He is not quite sure what to do, but he is a great guy. Well, we talked about how to do better that way, and how he can work more effectively. He is really to do it, and is going to try.
We went and contacted a bit. That went pretty well, and we had a good time. We stopped by to a huge magazine and looked around for a bit while we tried to decide what to eat, and what else to do. We went home and grabbed a bite to eat. That was good, and it gave us some good time to talk. We then started our day of trying to meet with people by stopping by to some members. Of course no one was home, and we just chatted a little bit with some people there close by. We did meet with Герасимовы's and that was cool. Люда и Настя are sisters, and they are way cool. We read 4 Нефий with them, and it was cool. That is a really awesome chapter about the power of pride. We then ran over to the branch apartment where we had молодежный вечер. It was way cool as we went out on the square and played tag on the ice rink. It was insanely fun, and we all had a good time. Everyone was watching us and thinking we were crazy. We just laughed and enjoyed ourselves. I am ready to die now I am so tired. Tomorrow should be a fun day again."

Snowball Fight
26 November 2005
"It was finally a snowy day. That is right - there was finally white streets, and trees were white. That meant we were finally able to slip and slide around and have a good time on the snow and ice. It made for a good contacting on the the street and it was a lot of fun. We actually did talk with one really good guy and there wasn't much else besides that. We had a meal like I always had at home - top ramen and tuna fish sandwiches.
We ran off and met with the Хозяйка (landlady) of an apartment, and set up a договор. I really do not like to do such things but that is part of the job. Сестра Макарова did help out a lot though, and so I am really glad that she came. After signing that we went back and had a big snowball fight - it was our sport time activity. That was way sweet. The snow was perfect for making snowballs and there was quite a bit. We also threw the frisbee around, and that was fun with the snow coming down. We were all wet, and tired, and so we went to the branch apartment to warm up (we were in our shirts and ties still). We had собрание миссионеров which went well, and then we hiked out to Афина's house. She is so great, and she needs some more friends in the church, because whenever we come, she is so happy. She is a really good girl for being only 13. She understands well, and that is good as we tried to teach to the law of chastity - we just beat around the bush, not wanting to come out and say it. We played some UNO and then we came home. We are doing well, and have a big day ahead. I love the snow, and wish it wasn't already melting (it started to earlier this evening)."

Blessings
12 February 2005
"We had a pretty cool day today. We had the собрание миссионеров this morning, and that went well. After that, we came home and ate quickly. We then ran to Галина's and blessed her apartment and then Вера Сомко. After all that, we went to Старцевы's and blessed their apartment also. Well, we took off to молодежный вечер. That went pretty well, and we had fun playing uno and yahtzee, and it was sweet. Tomorrow should be a good one again."

Mad
9 February 2005
" Well, its time to get a new journal going. I don' know how long it will take me to finish this, but we'll see. I am sure I'll finish before I have to go home. So today was crazy, and I was way mad earlier. So we wrote home this morning and then Elder Елзинга wanted to send a package home. Well. After 2.5 hours there, I was fairly upset. We went straight to help Володя and that took another 2.5 hours. Well, I was even madder after that because it was already 5 and I hadn't eaten and I was tired. Well, Елзинга made some пелмены and I caught a few zzz's and then our appointment fell through so we went and played Jenga at an FHE. Now I feel better. A long day, and right back to work tomorrow."

Fun Time
3 January 2005
"Today was a blast! We had a way fun time up the hill in the forest. There was tons of people there. We headed up at about 12 today and we found a place and started a little fire there. We played soccer, buried each other in the snow, and had hot dogs. Well, after the fun we went to Айдаровы's and had a spiritual thought before playing UNO. We then came home and it was about 7:30. We ate and got all ready for bed, and now I am dead. I will sleep like a rock tonight. Today was perfect as it was snowing and it wasn't too cold. It was sweet."

Big Ankle
21 December 2004
"We headed off to contact today, and we had no success at all. We tried to talk with people to 3rd Дачный, but no one was interested. Well, we took a break for lunch, and Elder McCain noticed his ankle was huge and so we just sat – I just worked on my lessons. Well, Айдаровы called us and we went over there to help them with stamps again. Well, we helped them and then we played UNO. We came home, and bought a bunch of junk good and now we're relaxing. Well, tomorrow is p-day, so it will be more relaxing!"

UNO
20 December 2004
"Tonight we had FHE with everyone, and that was a lot of fun. We played UNO and chatted. It was way fun. Before that we stamped for an hour and a half for the Айдаровы's. It was a lot of fun. Before that we stopped by to see some people – Артур on the рынок and Катя the member. Other then that we didn't do a ton. We had собрание округа , and ate some good fajitas."
