One year down, one to go

Well,
     in two days I will complete a year in the mission. Wow. I don`t really know how I feel about that. Anyway, I will most likely be coming home two weeks early, instead of four weeks later. The only way that I could be here for four more weeks would be if I extended, and I`m not sure what I want to do yet, but I will keep you informed.
     I`m writing on tuesday because they changed our preparation day so that we could go to the temple today. It was pretty cool, and interesting in spanish, to say the least. I understood everything, and was able to translate somethings in my head correctly. I really enjoyed going to the temple again after almost a year. The temple in Santiago was remodeled in 2006, and it is very nice. It`s not very big like seattle, but it`s beautiful all the same. 
     About the puzzle, I haven`t used it yet, but when I do, I`ll let you know. We had a great ward activity this past week - a talent show, and We, the missionaries, won first prize. If you can imagine the missionaries and other members of the ward, including the bishop, dancing to the popular song "Gangnam Style", you can picture the first of our two acts. The other had something to do with glowsticks, pitchblack darkness in the gym, and dancing. The videos are a little too big to send via email, so you`ll have to wait a year to see them. But it was so freaking cool. 
     Thanks for all of the love and support. It will be nice to count down instead of counting up, but, I still don`t know how I feel about that. I love ya, and I miss ya. And I would like more info on my seahawks please.

Chao,
Elder Hjelm
