I just sent Brian an e-mail, he only has 11 days left, Next week I will send him the last e-mail to his mission. Hopefully he will be as excited to see us as we will be to see him. I know he has a lot of things on his to-do list to check off. One of his frustrations is not being able to work as much in his area as he would like. Here is one of his latest e-mails:
familia!
pues otra semana ya pasó y no tengo mucho que contarles. Another week gone by. We finished up our zone conferences this week. It's strange to think that I wont be going to another zone conference ever again. We're trying our best to work hard in the area, but there are the normal unplanned emergencies and errands to run. We did divisions with the zone leaders from comayagua on thursday and friday so that was nice to get out to the are all day for that. Yesterday we were going to be the whole afternoon (2-9 pm) in our area, but president called and we had to go plan emergency changes again. I think I've learned in the office to always expect the unexpected. So we're trying our best to work hard despite of everything. Today we're planning on going to Ruby Tuesdays for lunch, which is a bit expensive for missionaries, but I think it's probably worth it. This next week we don't have a whole lot planned out with President so I think that means for time to teach which will be great. I hope the boys are having fun at Father's and Son's. Dad, ojalá pudiera haber estado allí yo, pero te quiero mucho. Cuidate. That's crazy that Jeff Paxman is already coming home. He left just before me, so that kinda makes it seem like my times running down. Tell him I said hi. Oh and tell Andrew Cannon I said hi as well. Have fun at the museum of modern art. Well family, I don't know what more to tell you. It was nice to be able to talk to you for mother's day. Mom, I hope you had a great mothers day. I love you! Family, I love you. Take care. hasta la próxima,
Elder Brian Wright
It kinda expresses his frustrations about office life. Here is the latest:
Family,
Well, it's kinda strange to think that Jeff is already home. He left just a few weeks before I did. I guess that means my time is running down. You all can count the days if you like, just don't tell me how many. At district meeting this last week (rare, because we hardly have time to go to district meeting) one of the elders going home this change was there. He came up to our room and wrote on the window of the door "21" and then made a hand signal and sound of a plane taking off. As hard as it is, I'm trying not to get baggy. I still have a lot to do in these last couple of weeks. We're trying to work hard with our investigators to see if we can get some baptisms before we leave. If not, leave somke investigators for the new assistants. One of the new assistants might come in in a week so that we can train him a little bit, but we'll see... Today we went to la Tigra again... the forest national park with a waterfall. It's always fun, but after three times you kinda already know what to expect... Next week we might go out to Valle de Angeles again and the week after I'm going to say goodbye to converts/members here in the city. Tell Jeff I said hi and I'll see him in a few weeks. For the mean time, I'm here working hard until the end. The time struggles between the office and the are as normal. This week might be worse because they're supposed to finish our new office, so we could be boxing stuff up to move it to the new office. I think they should wait until June 12th or so to move. It would be more convenient for me. Brent, how did your AP test go? Kyle, how are you doing with your piano piece for when I come home? Brad, how's the girlfriend? Brent, did you end up going to prom? (I went to one, and thought it was very overrated) Well family, I guess I'll write you next week. Have a great week! I love you!
Brian
