More Rumblings!

Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:09:52

Hey guys! We just had another crazy week that was full of surprises. As you all may have heard, there was an aftershock this last week on Thursday that was pretty strong. The epicentre was 7.2 on the richter scale, but here in our pension it didn´t feel that strong. We got a little spooked from it, but then in died down and nothing bad happened. We were doing our weekly planning when it happened and when in stopped we just kept planning. Then last night we had another crazy thing happen. So the night was sultry and elder Zmoos and I were just walkin along to our next appointment. We began to cross the street and out of no where everything just goes black. The street lights, the buildings, the lamps, everything. The only light there was were the head lights coming from the cars. So we decided not to go to the appointment and we just went back to our pension. Then when we got back our district leader called us and told us to go back to the pension, but we were already ahead of him, heheh. We heard that there was another quake in the south and it cut a line for the power to the city, so there was a complete black out. It was kind of cool to see the whole city without light.

Oh yeah, somebody told us that there was an earthquake in Turkey just recently. Is that true?

Hey so wanna hear some good news? I finally got my Christmas package! Hohoho! So now we know that if you guys wanna send me a package, you´ve gotta do it about 3 months before, haha. Also make sure that it´s a tough box because this one is pretty beat up, but don´t worry it looks like everything is all there. I´ve got to thank you guys for all the treats and the ties. Oh, I just had some of those truffles last night and wow they are good! I also enjoyed the Christmas tree and stocking. I´m gonna save those for next Christmas, hmhm.
