Hey family!!!!
Honestly this whole thing has easily been the hardest thing I have ever
done. It is ridiculous but yesterday I got called into the MTC presidents
office and the first thing he said was, "Elder you are not going
home." Then I was like, "OK." So anyways I'm not coming
home. I have thought about it a lot and I realize that I have to
give all the poor chumps back home a chance to woo the girls that are waiting
for me.
Anyways thank
you to everyone for the letters and packages. Honestly mail is the greatest
thing in the entire world. I look forward to it every night. So please
everyone, even if I don't know you in the slightest write me!!! (that was
desperate) Hey Jerbear I want to let you know it was honestly the hardest
thing leaving you and I love you so much. You are such a stud and I
love your 10 letters in a matter of 2 days. I look forward to seeing you again
man. Whatever you do man you be the best at it.
Jacob, thank
you for the letter it really changed my out look on life and I just wanted
to remind you to send my highlight film out to the schools again. Also you are
not allowed to kiss any girls because I have to be here. Bro you would not
believe how many foxy sisters are here its ridiculous (no pun intended). Like
it is honestly hard to flirt so I just say hey good to see ya sister which
is code for "let's kiss in 2 years".
Cassie thank
you for your letter I laughed my head off. I miss your sarcasm.
Sarcasm isn't allowed around here believe it or not. Caty I hope you
enjoyed my picture. I thought of you the entire time about how I miss
my little princess.
Mom and Dad
thank you so much, I love you guys for everything. My companion looks like
he is strait outta of Compton. If Compton were China Town. I could not tell if
he was terrified of me or hated me for the longest time. MTC is pretty super
spiritual and something that I am clearly not used to. When ever a cute
sister comes and asks me where I am from I say in my Irish accent
"Dublin." I'm pretty sure most the MTC thinks I am Irish. Thank
you for all the love and letters it means so much. I miss you all. Shout out to
Elder Garfield, Jeremy, Krieger and that Nadauld kid who are coming in tomorrow.
Thank you to Steven Bashann, Mac Troy and Megs for writing me.
My room mates
have a wall dedicated to their girl friends and since I got no pics I
drew a picture of me and some nameless girl in stick figure form holding hands.
It was completely scandalous. Thank you to Sister Noll and the Miles family for
the package. I love him. It turns out that Elder Miles is two floors above
me and its awesome because I see him every meal and at night. He is
honestly a life saver and a reason I'm still here. God bless, Send more stamps,
write me and stuff. Love you all. See ya next week. Also send back that memory
card.
Much love, Elder Buhler.
It is so good to hear Josh's early experiences in the MTC. I remember getting a call into the MTC President's office once. Initial thoughts were concern because you rarely got called into his office. Ha! Thanks Kim for sharing his letters!
