FIGHTING THE COLD IN JUNE!?! MY STOMACH CANT DO CHICKEN AND RICE EVERYDAY!?! I was always telling myself, "dang, I just want the cold. I have been in summer for like a year now." I forgot how much I hate the cold. This whole week it was in like high 30s or low 40s. At one point we thought it was snowing. I had to bring out the scarfs, gloves, hats and sweaters. The worst part about all of this though is that all I could think about was Christmas music. So when we were walking in the street, I be singing Justin Bieber in my head.

I FOUND A PANTHER!?! I'M IN THE JUNGLE?! Another week here in good old Paraguay and yes I definitely found a panther here...nah just a cat. However, it was pretty lit though and got a sick picture with it. We had a pretty chill week last week. Had a great lesson with our friends Maria and Ronaldo. We are making great progress with them and are hoping that they will accept their date for baptism soon. We had zone conference this week. After all the training and stuff, our asistentes asked me if we could do exchanges the next day, however, we had to do exchanges with our Zona leaders that day. Moral of the story, I had 2 exchanges that day in the morning and in the afternoon. It was pretty fun though. I learnt a lot from the older guys and how I can become better. Later that night we had to cross this river in the dark and I was in the back and couldn't see very well. I slipped and got my legs soaked, yeah, wasn't very fun. I think I got food poisoning for the first time here...
