Hey, Mom,
Thank you for
the packages, myself and the rest of the district really appreciated it! Sunday, Tuesday and Friday's are
honestly the best. Sunday's are so chill and for me most of the day is in
Korean. Tuesdays we have the big devotionals which are just straight
awesome! Gordon B. Hinckley's son spoke along with his wife. They took a
panoramic picture of all of us because I guess we're the most
missionaries they've ever had so they are going to hang us up on the wall.
Side story... there is this building 4M and it's SOOO
nice. It's where the English speaking missionaries go and they put all Ktown (Korean missionaries) and the
rest of the Asian speaking missionaries in the same ghetto building. So we always
joke around how they are treated so much better and actually feel loved
while they're learning because they have windows, REAL desks and
paintings with actual real frames not just a picture of Jesus taped to
our 2 by 2 window. Also they're bathrooms have real urinals not just a
toilet with the door and seat ripped off.
A kid in my zone got TB and almost got sent home so we
built him a sauna. With a bed sheet we taped off the door way and turned
the showers to hot and had like 15 kids on chairs just chillin there in
towels we're doing it again today haha.
So I bought a backpack and two days after they came out with a new mission rule that no missionaries can have backpacks we're only aloud to have sidebags and there's no returns on backpacks so that kinda sucks. (From Nikko's mom, if you have a son or daughter going on a mission, don't buy a backpack, I let Nikko buy his in the MTC and we still didn't get it right.

Note to my friends coming in:
The MTC is the most boring and yet funnest thing you'll ever do.
I'm not going to sugar coat it, it can get rough and you will get home
sick. But when you start to question why your here and you start to get
home sick just open up your Preach My Gospel and read what your purpose
is. You English speaking missionaries will have it a lot easier here over in 4M, but work hard everyday. Make sure in personal
study you get in touch with the gospel and
spirit. Love all you guys see ya when you get here.
Love you,
Elder Nikko Meza
