HOLA!!
The days are all starting to blur together. I can remember things that happen, but I can't remember when exactly they happen. Last night in our room, we were trying to remember what had happened that morning and it was hard. We kept suggesting things that had happened this week, but on other days. Its weird. Eventually we remembered what we did in class though.
This week, especially towards the end, we have been really trying to speak more in Spanish. Yesterday we tried to speak for the whole day in Spanish. Most of us did really well. Our class average was 94.8% of the time. (I am pretty sure Hermana Braddy is using a different percentage scale than the rest of us or the average would be a little bit lower). It is so much easier to speak in Spanish when we have been talking in Spanish.
My companions are still driving me crazy, one in particular, but we are learning how to deal with her and I am doing A LOT of praying. On the first day they told us we must always pray in Spanish, so that is what we do. It is weird to go to a devotional or something and hear a prayer in English. Also, sometimes things come out in Spanish without me even noticing that I am speaking Spanish. That is true, especially for little things, some of the more complicated sentences are a different story. Anyway, the Spanish is going really well. Pretty soon we will have covered all of the grammar concepts in class then we will focus solely on reviewing and practicing.
Each week that new missionaries enter the MTC, I see more peope that I know. It is really weird. Especially when it is people that I didn't expect to see. Haha
The food in the cafeteria is okay. I don't really enjoy much of it.  Usually it is okay, or decent, but occasionally there is something so disgusting that we dont eat it. There are different cafeteria lines to choose from for food so that helps when there is something gross for lunch. Because we have no choice but to eat in the cafeteria, usually I just suck it up and eat what is there. I think I pretend to like it so that I can survive. :)
I still love the other two Hermanas in our district. They are both great. I think we will be friends after our missions. Which is a plus, because Hermana Ruesh's family lives in Hawaii and she invited us to come visit her after our missions. I am totally going to take her up on that! I just have to pay for a plane ticket and I am good. :) Haha. I would like her even if she didn't live in Hawaii though. Funny thing though, Hermana Bumstead doesn't like Hermana Ruesch. I am not sure exactly why they don't like each other, other than that their personalities are different. I also like Hermana Gwynn a lot. She is wild and crazy and loves to sing all the time.

Love, Hermana Bair
