Hey its been a little bit since i wrote to everyone. But here is what is going on. Some events for this week.
1. We are moving apartments. We have been living very far from our area. So me and my companion Elder Adams  found a new apartmrnt to live in. It will make things much easier for us. and accelerate the work
2. We went to an activity called skytrex. i send some pictures. it was really cool. it was like a ropes course that was really high up, and it was a ton of fun.
3. Janet is progressing towards baptism!
So ya, the work has been pretty tough since i got to KL. But i havent stopped. Its definately wayyy different than my other areas. and the work is slower than i am used to. But still, i am working hard, and learning about myself and Gods works. But everything isnt all bad. I am having a lot of fun, and learning to just put my trust in the Lord and that he will progress the work. And on the other hand, Janet, is doing quite well. She is fellowshipped by all the members of the church, and will be getting baptised on November 10. it will be the first baptism my branch has seen in over a year! so things are going quite well. I feel like there is not a whole lot to say to everyone other than i am trying hard to find new people to teach, and its been tough. But i know that God never really gave a baptismal number that we needed to reach. so it will be fine. ALso, my grandparents are going on a mission to the Washington Tacoma mission which i think is so great!! im glad to have some fellow missionaries in my family! and i am glad that i have grandparents that are willing to serve. I might not see them for a while, but im sure they will be just fine. Anyway, hopefully some cool stuff happens this week so i have somethings to write about next week!
Love

hey everyone whats up?

its been a while since i wrote but things are all good. I am in my new area. Its in west malaysia. Its the big city of KL. and things arent going too bad. The work here is a lot harder, but im getting it figured out. So i am also training a new elder from the MTC. His name is Elder Adams. He is a way sick guy and we get along great. Me and him are sticking it out in the city, and making things happen. We have had a lot of new investigators and everything. Our area has a reputation of being the hardest area in the mission. It hasnt had a baptism for over a year now! And i guess thats why they sent me and Elder Adams here. So we could do work and get stuff done. Anyway, i have already been here for 3 weeks now.
So im still kinda freaking out about the whole new ages to go on missions. I feel like i am gonna go back to BYU when i get home and there will be NO GIRLSSSSSS when i get there. honestly, this is a legit concern of mine. haha. not only do i get screwed by a dear john a couple of months back....now there isnt even gonna be anyone to date when i get home!!! dang it. if only good ol' tom decided to do this AFTER i got home it would be all good.  But whatever. im sure ill manage.
So we have a really good investigator that we found our first week here. Her name is Janet. She is from the philipeans. Which is cool becuase i feel like i am teaching in tawau again. ANd she is progressing great. Im pretty sure shell be the first baptism that our branch has seen for a year. ya, i have also noticed that there are random connections here with the other places i have served in the past. Like there is a family here that is innactive that just moved here from tawau. and i knew them when i was in tawau. So we have been working with them. also, there are a TON of random connections like member's siblings and stuff like that from my other areas. if that makes any sense. anyway this week was pretty cool. We went to a place called Batu caves. It was infested with monkeys that love to steal stuff and eat bananas. but i got some cool pictures out of it.
By the way, i made those shorts as a joke for the shock factor. they were pretty funny. anyway, love to get some more emails from everyone soon! thanks!
