Not that much has happened this week other than power outages, getting locked out for the fourth time, an earthquake drill, and a district vs district game of soccer.
So on Tuesday we had another power outage the entire day which I think was pretty fun, and then around 8:30 p.m. all these sirens started going off and a bunch of missionaries (mainly the hermanas) started freaking out. Turns out it was just an earthquake drill and that protocol calls for being calm if such an event were to happen.
Today my companion and I got locked out for the fourth time. Our doors have electric locks, so we could get into the apartment but not into our own room which also has electric locks. They've had to come fix it every time because not even the master key works. They tried changing the batteries the last time, but that didn't work apparently. My guess is that the internal hardware or programming is just messed up. We've given up on closing our door so were now just leaving it open while we're gone.
Also today we played an hour long game of soccer which felt amazing. We have a rival district that we played kickball with and we won, and today we won again 2 to 5. I injured my leg last week when someone I was playing soccer with stepped on my leg, and it's still bothering me which is really frustrating.
The Spanish is coming along better. I'm able to speak pretty well now, but it's still super hard understanding Latinos.
Sorry that there isn't much today. Let me know what else I'm leaving out that you want to hear about.
Nos vemos!!
