General Conference was AWESOME!! It's literally like candy for
missionaries. Haha so if you want to get just a little bit of an idea of
the Spanish I have to listen to, compare the speed of the Spanish of
the two Spanish talks. Elder Zeballos is from Chile and his Spanish was
notably faster than Elder Pino´s. Now take that speed of Spanish, speed
it up more and take away the diction and enunciation then cut off the
endings of about half of the words and add a lot of sayings and words
that don't exist in Spanish (only in Chile). Once you've done that you
will have a bit of an idea of what I get to listen to every day - and I
love it!
Besides General Conference nothing much
happened. A few temblores no más. Oh, a temblor is a weak earthquake. A
Terremoto is a strong earthquake. In Chile a terremoto is 8.0 and higher
and everything else is weak. Haha in the rest of the world a terremoto
is everything stronger than a 6.0. Ya, Chile gets a lot of temblores.
Now when it happens at night I usually sleep through them and don't even
realize that we had one.
So ya, That's it for the week. Love you all. Don't die, that would be unfortunate ;)
