South African adventures!!!!

Hi tigerripanelly! December 6ths 10 questions!
1.Do you tease your flat mates like you do all the kids here at home or are you the model roomate of reservedness in missionary hood without a twinkle in your eye?
2. Can you buy that kind of technology stuff there meaning mp4 player, Dad wants to know since its close to China?
3. Have you met Elder Craven, his Dad is following my blog most likely because it says Johannesburg in the search titles. He would have just arrived in Nov since he left to the Provo MTC till his docs arrived late. He looks kinda like Will Casper.
4. What are the Christmas phone calling agendas going to be like? Do they use Skype?
5. Do you call us or do we call you?
6. Do you have a primary song book?
7.The kids want to know what time you start studying the scriptures in the morning, after breakfast or before, and all four of you like on that movie or only with your companion?
8. Do you need a rain hat or do you ride with your umbrella out on your bike?

1.My flat mates aren't little kid's so no not really, and i'm not really sure what you are asking about the twinkle in your eye thing but i'm pretty much the same tyrell you know.
2.Yeah you can buy all that technology stuff here. like i said it's pretty much like america but more black people.
3. I didn't meet Elder Craven, but i saw him at transfers.
4.the christmas phone calling agendas are that my companion have to find somone who has a land line that we can use and we asked the second counselor in the Bishopric and he said we could. You guys are going to have to call us at the given time which will be at 7AM SHARP! (your time) i hope that is ok. If you call the first time, and i'm not there, just call again soon. that's is on christmas day. So don't loose this information. if you have problems, i will try to iron out the kinks.
5.You are going to have to call me.
6.no i don't have a primary song book.
7.we wake up at 6:30 and we prepare for the day. Get Dressed, Shower, Exercise, and eat. Then at 8:00 we do our own personal study and at 9:00 we do companionship study for an hour. then we go out and start the day.

10.Our p-days are all of those things.
11. i'm not sure about my comps family.
Tell dad I'm sorry for him that kind of sucks and he should probably stop drinking all that dr. pepper, not sure if that has anything to do with it but that's all i can think of. He's the medical pro so he knows.
Anyway, this week has been good, We were finally able to baptize Kabelo yesterday and that was super awesome. He is going to be an awesome follower of christ. Things have been going good this week. We were able to find 18 new investigators and we have 14 people on date for baptisim. we hope that we can get them all in the water but that dosen't always happen.
WE had some interesting things happen this week though that were pretty scary. The first one was on thursday, Elder Macombs(Our district leader and flat mate) was on exchanges with another elder from our district named Elder Kampoy (African from congo) They were riding the bikes that day and we got a call from them just after our last apointment that elder kampoy had wrecked really bad and was not in good shape. We got back to the flat and he was all scraped up and his arm was hurting really bad from how he landed on it. So we were advised to take him in for x-ray's. turned out that he was fine and we had to wait along time while they fixed him up. We were there until 2 in the morning, and the next day we were all super tierd. but we are all on schedual again now so that's good.
The next scary thing happend when we were waiting to pick up the other elders on satruday night. While were were sitting there waiting, this big group of tsotsies (not good guys) came running up to our car, so we took off and they went back to where they were. It was so freaky and it was a good thing that we had left the car running or we would have probably been in a lot of trouble. So after that the other elders took a really long time to show up to the place that they said tey would be so we got really worried. and they finally showed up at like 9:30 so we quickly picked them up and went to the flat. My companion was mad because they had said they would be there at 8:30 and they didn't show until 9:30. anyway that's pretty muck it for the excitement for the week and i'm out of e-mail time so i'll talk to everyone later

Love
Elder Jones
