Greenie and the Third Wheel
So I have now become the third wheel, seriously our verdinha she's a contacting machine, she's really outgoing which me and I. Svedin are not. She's a really cute girl (she looks like the girls Trevor dated before his mission) probably a sister that Elders ask “WHY (are you here)” it's good in a way but bad because she's a bit nieve and just a greenie (that explains everything) and we're in the land of young college boys and of the drunks, we'll see how this transfer goes. She's good she's very diligent with the language, something I'm not good with hence the fact that I still speak so crappy. It's good and all but it's hard, in so many different ways, because I'm not comfortable with her, but I'm comfortable with I. Svedin. She's got that little greenie fire burning strong and bright though, she's all about contacts which is different because none of the other sisters here are big on doing contacts. She does have to learn that the piano has 88 keys and it's not going to make music by only pushing one key, so it is with missionary work. It's been good though it's been forcing I. Svedin and I to talk to more people. It's weird because I've always been the one that speaks the worst Portugese or can't understand people. Every transfer brings something new, some kind of challenge to work and deal with. Only two more transfers to worry about-whew. It was kind of funny, basically her first day here was all English, because first of all basically my whole district came to Porto to pick up people and to see others off. It was good I was able to see most of the Elders in my MTC district that made me happy, Elder Yetter finally came back from Madeira. Then that night we went to the Hinckleys for aulas de Portugues. It's so weird having a greenie again.
