Conference weekend and Guarda Chuvas

I ofically loved watching conference down here! It was really cold, and we were kinda ghetto and brought blankets with us to the broadcast....because there are not heaters in the building and since it is made out of brick it was colder inside than out...but its better like that than it being super hot! I watched the General Relief Society Brodacast finally in Portuguese and all but one session in English. Nothing aganst portuguese, but it is still easier for me in english to get the stories, jokes, and most importantly the basis and themes of the talks when Im listening in English. I must admit sometimes I was sitting there wishing I could be in SLC watching it there, and that I felt homesick at times, but Im trying my best to get used to things here, and to enjoy where I am.
This weekend we stayed at Camilas parents house, her parents are super nice and I love her mom's cooking, she cooks good things from Brazil and also great japanese food...its like the best of two worlds. She sent us home with lots of fruit, so i dont have to go buy any for a while...shes such a nice woman. We used our umbrellas all weekend because its been raning here since like friday off and on. I love when it rains, as long as im not walking around in it too much!
Today was a big preparation day for when Camila and I start teaching tomorrow. Our bosses are going to watch us teach, and so are two of the other teachers....eek! Im crossing my fingers that things will go well! I'll let you all know how things go. We went to buy some papers for our class, and some treats and some other random things, I felt for a minute that i was getting ready to teach 3rd graders because of the things we bought, but whenever I teach like all interactive people usually respond well so it should be good. I ate my first straberry bom-bom, its not like the bom-bom's in the US....it was so good, like ghiradeli chocolate good, and only like 75 cents...even better!
Tonight Camila and I are going to start our own little FHE and then hopefully go dress shopping for the dance this weekend. I'm excited to go the dance....everyone here is going, even adults go and they grab tables with their friends and bring their kids and everything...people sure know how to party here in Curitiba, and people say the South of Brasil is cold and boring....lol yeah, sure.
Well I had better go, so we can get home before it gets too cold outside. It was warm this morning when we left so i didnt bring a jacket, but the wind is back again and its drizziling... so ill probably arrive home purple! Thanks for everyone staying in touch with me, I think I'm doing a lot better job this time that last time I was here...lets just see if I can keep it up! sorry there are no pictures...ill try and get some up tomorrow!
