Elder Caden Rogers

This weeks email is as big as the ocean I'm in the middle of right now, so bear with me, and try not to get killed by that psycho carjacker guy.

So, first off, I went to the Disney resort this week. One of our members took us there for dinner because they have connections! So not only have we been to it, we've been in it! The food was so great! Disney really does know how to entertain. Also they bought out 20th Century Fox. When I find out who it was at Disney that made that happen I'm going to hurt him. Now I have to worry about Alien products showing up in Disneyland! That's awful!

So, as many of you know, my new companion is Elder Maxwell of sweet home Alabama! To tell you the truth, he's a great missionary, and I'm honored to be able to have this chance to serve along side him! We get along great, and already have our own little inside jokes and stuff! We've been tracting all week, and aside from a few potentials and a homunculus car sticker, we have not seen much success. We are both working as hard as we can though, and are united in the work despite having different interests. He's a football and sports guy, but he likes rap, so that's a thing. He's way funny too. I think we'll definitely be great friends, and like I said, we're keeping very busy out here! So busy in fact, that I collapsed from exhaustion on Sunday and had to sleep it off. I've been feeling really dead at night lately, but I'm sure it's just because I'm not used to working so hard. It's going to be such a fun transfer! Lots of good hard work in store!

In other news, I got an Akibento box! A whole slew of anime goodies came my way, but I think overall I'd prefer a loot anime box instead. I think if I ever decided to do it again I'd go for loot anime box. (I think I'll wait until I get home before I do it again, as fun as it was.)

I had a surprise visit this week from Russell and family. It really threw me through a loop, but I loved the experience! It was really great to get to see them. I hadn't given a hug to a family member in six months. That was weird. But hey! I got to see my cousins! It was more awesome than weird.

On exchanges with Elder Ellsworth before he left at transfers, I was able to teach a Japanese family about missionaries and what we do-IN JAPANESE! It was such a blessing to be able to use my studies to preach the gospel, and I pray I will know the joy of having similar experiences in the future!

I'm really getting to know and love the people of Hawaii, and I'm starting to love this island a lot!

Until next week, this is your favorite idiot, Elder Rogers, Signing off!
