Bens update

Crystal palace

Hey Momma!
For sure it was great seeing you guys!  You may sound really American, but we can work on that later.  I hope I wasn't too boring, I was really tired haha.  I was thinking, maybe we should do video logs or something.  Well, first let me address the elephant in the room.  We have moves calls and only one person in our district is moving.  That person is me.  I am going very far to an area called Crystal Palace.  It is two areas over from me.  Yes, I am staying in London haha.  I don't really know how to feel about that.  Apparently they have a pretty sweet flat though!  Also, I already know my new companion, and he's a bit of a waster, but that's okay, it'll only be 3 months maximum since he goes home in 3 months.  So wednesday I move in to Crystal Palace.  
We just played games and watched movies too.    It was okay I guess.  The Doctor Who was alright.  Funny thing is, the channel switched right before he regenerated, so we missed the end and had to look it up online.  It was a weird episode wasn't it?  Also, I saw the Sherlock clip, that was cool.

Wow, well hopefully I do some unintentional missionary work with people back home. 
Thank you for complimenting our choir, the ward I'm moving to has the choir director in it :D  So we are gonna chill and I will probably be here for the Easter concert as well.
I have had a good week and eaten a lot.  Tomorrow I may have to say goodbye to some members... At least until stake conference.   The ward I'm going to has stuff happening, so it should be good.
I wish I heard Truman's talk!  I bet it was... interesting!  That's too bad that Brady has to take a break.  Hopefully that doesn't affect him.  But I do know his wrist is bad.
I don't care what you do with my facebook, feel free to do whatever you want!
What are the altitudes of cardston? Chief Mountain?
Man, I'm going to miss being in such a high class, fashion conscious area.
My companion today was looking at my tree and he said "I thought you only had one sister!?" Because he thought you were my sister and he was confused.  Just thought I'd let you know, and you should take it as a compliment haha.
Anyways, I love y'all!  Have a good week!  Do something cool!
