Well its rainy again, no surprises there...
but this week has disappeared again, just like all the
others. I'm really nervous now. I got my call yesterday... and you can guess
where I'm going. I'm going back to ESSEX! Sweet land of the Chav's (kinda like
English gangsters). So I'm going to the city called Romford... but I don't know
the flat address yet, so I'll get that to you as soon as possible. I'll be
follow up training a younger Elder named Elder Ollivera... or something like
that. He's been out for about 6 weeks... so he's really young. I'm just a bit
nervous about being the senior companion since this is obviously my first time.
I'm not really sure how to handle it... but I guess I just have to take it as
it comes. So I'm leaving my good German friend Elder Wolf, and he's probably
going to die here in Luton (he'll finish his mission here). So many of my good
friends go home tomorrow. One lives really close to us. Elder Fisher is from
Lehi, and he gets his plane flight home tomorrow. He's been my zone leader for
6 months and we've gotten to know each other quite well. I'll be sending emails
to him, so you guys can help him find a new girlfriend or something :P He's a
really cool guy. Elder Affleck my previous compadre, goes home this next
transfer, so middle of July. Everyone I know is just getting so Old! There all
going to be gone here :P Besides all my friends disappearing, I'll get the
chance to make more. Plus I took some awesome photos this week for you guys,
you can enjoy my new nerd face... but I actually really like my glasses :) I
guess that is what we were going for :P Not to bad, except when it rains than
the get all fogged up and stuff... but thats just life. Its good to hear that
everyone is still alive in our family, Mark hasn't killed anyone yet (lol). I'm
jealous you guys get to go on Holidays. The closest thing I get is P-day for 12
hours and thats about it. Then its back to work. I'm curious as to why Shannon
is going to Timpanogos. I'm guessing all of her friends are over there. Well
all know that Vikings Rule still :) So tomorrow is a big day, I have to spend
my time packing here today, and visiting all my friends here before I leave. I
think its good that I'm going. I've spent way too long here in this area. To
many people know my face. So Romford will be exciting. I'll send you guys
pictures of my new companion and the area, and we'll see if it rivals Luton in
Dodginess.
Love,
Elder Bradley Smith
