Secret Language

Changes just happened and Jaydan is staying where he is with the same companion. He thinks that is just fine and cool. His comp is finally wanted to work again and so that makes Jaydan excited as well. (he's ready to go)

They have been working with the Branch on a few things and things are looking up. The members seem to respect the Elders more and have more of a desire to help them out. Jaydan is hoping the members will accept the less active and non members better now.

This week was tough and there is a lot of time being wasted. The Elders are spending a lot of time at home or just in members homes and getting home late. Jaydan said there are too many rules being broken also. He will say things to his comp that he can't take it anymore and they need to stop and his comp replies with "who will stop me". (oh the joys) Jaydan really does love his comp though in spite of his attitude. They are good friends learning a lot from each other and they are able to work with unity together also. Jaydan said: "I am super dooper, alley ooper, excited for this next change.

Jaydan and his comp made their agendas into plates like the golden plates. They are pretty cool. Jaydan and his comp also came up with a secret language to write with. It's a mix of English and Spanish, Chinese, Arabic and Hebrew. It's super cool looking and they can send each other little letters. There are only four Elders that know this "secret language" so they will be able to communicate with each other throughout the mission and others won't know what is being said. Jaydan thinks that is "super cool".

Jaydan's comp had a dream about Larry. He said he is for sure going to come and visit us. In his dream he was at our house visiting and joking with Larry. The things he was saying were really close to how things really are.

Did a lot of traveling this week. Jaydan had to pay for all the tickets (bus) since his comp doesn't have any money left. Jaydan even had to use personal money which he really doesn't like doing. The Elders are suppose to get reimbursed for their tickets but right now they are three weeks behind in getting them and so Jaydan has to spend his own money. He likes being on a mission though and loves Uruguay just a few little things bug him.

Jaydan really likes that the people know him now and like him. Some even know him better than his comp who has been there longer.
