first email

hey i've finally got my email set up. our pday is on tuesdays. ive got the email but can only check it on my pday. there is this website called dearelder.com that you can log onto and send me a letter, anyone can do it all u have to do is enter my info and write the letter. send it and they will type it up here and i will have it by dinner. kinda cool. 

thanks for your first letter. it had a lot of good stuff in it. my companion elder hoyt is from southern utah(imagine that) and hes a real good guy. he has a hard time leaving his girlfriend behind but theres a few people here that are like that. im feel so stinkin busy i danot even have time to really think about you guys! its wake up breakfast, study till lunch, class till dinner then class till ninethirty! 

sunday was a really good day and the spirit was so strong i felt like i was gonna cry. i get all choked up all the time now. it wierd but i really do get those "swelling in the breasts" alma talks about. this place is incredible. never before have i craved searching the scriptures before. everything else seems like a burden. i especially love the book of mormon, its got a tender place in my heart right next to london. she is here sometimes and i think about her alot... grandpa too. one time our district was being kinda roudy at dinner after gym and i thought of him at dinner and i realized i need to be more reverent. 

we have really good teachers. its amazing how fast they teach us spanish an we can learn it. i can pray, meet people, and testify(vrey basically) in spanish. i didnt realize i would be a spanish tutor but here i am helping my comp. its good. hope everything is well at home. sounds like a high power electric fence should be on back order huh? stinkin cows. its wierd thinking about home because it feels like ive been here for ETERNITY. it was like my premortal life ha. 

well mom i hope this is long enogh for you cuz im running out of stuff to say. no i havent had any cold cereal yet. im stuck on eggs, hash browns, sausage and biscuits and gravy =) im playing extra hard in gym period though... the gym is closed so were playing soccer and suprisingly im the best out of us gringos. give my love to everyone in the ward and family. i can really say i know now that this is His work. D+C 35:13. i hope thats the right one they are all jumbled. so much info... ik love you all soo very much. adios -elder preston
