So, the most prominent part of the whole week has definitely been the
food-lots of it, and most of it really weird. I've been fed chicken
liver, chicken feet, pig kidneys, whole fried fish, and a ton of other
stuff. Most of it is pretty good (not the liver), but you have to
convince yourself to eat it. The weirdest thing I've had is balut. That
is where they take a duck egg, let it grow and develop for a while, then
boil it and eat it. That was one of the worst things I've ever eaten.
It has the texture of styrofoam, and looks like...trash.
We
waited the whole week in suspense for transfer calls. That's right,
transfer calls 3 weeks after the last ones. This mission and my last one
have opposite transfer schedules. So here, we were unsure what was
going to happen. Elder Brown was going home for sure, and Elder Nawaia
was probably leaving (he's been here for 6 months). That meant I could
go to either side of the area, or just plain anywhere in the mission.
But, I ended up staying where I was at.
Apart from that, not much happened. We dropped off Elder Brown for his trunky run- going home. We also
spent a lot of time running around the squatters. Funny thing- in India,
a squatter is a type of toilet. Here, it's a slum neighborhood. Either
way, we spent a lot of time proselyting there.
That was about it for the week. See ya!
