We have reached our limit on how far we can drive the car, so we have been biking this whole week. It’s been fun, and my legs have been sore. It’s the first time in the mission that I have had to walk or bike the whole week. It’s crazy that Riley has to do that for his whole mission. Idk, I would have probably gotten used to it though.
This was a poem that my flatmate made for this week. It’s pretty good.
'Twas the week of an elder whose last name is Crowton
This week was a lit one, you know I'm not boastin'
Here's an account written by mine own hand
Of how my life fare's whilst I'm in this great land
Monday
Today was a beauty, just like my mom
It's also her birthday so sing her a song
We did all the normal, shop, email, and such
Then strapped on our boots and hit the field to play touch
Came back and changed and then hit FHE
"Hey you go home soon," was a very constant theme
Now 10 p days left wow and that's how it stands
Hectic as but, I can count it on both hands
Tuesday
Our day started good and we made a man cave
Included: 2 chairs, couch, plus one microwave
We also did service, yard work, what a day
She then gave us shave cream, Vanilla Olay
We hit up the chapel with Terry at 5
And played some piano, my holla and drive
Headed over to dinner with Helen Pene
Ate food then we talked 'bout that gospel, hooray
Wednesday
It's Wednesday today and we visited our 'gator
Stan is his name and you know he's no hater
During tracting today we knocked on a steal
Met a lit dude named Semi who plays for the Eels
Found out he's a star, so you know that he hustles
He gave us some protein to get shredded muscles
Finished off our day with a meeting, great 'twas
Pres Boden presiding to lead the stake cuz
Thursday
Meeting today, with Pres Back and his wife
Gave us some counsel on the way to live life
Went to the library, girl yelled "SECURITY"
Because of a man who stared at her curiously
Then we went knocking to plant those seeds mate
#KnockedEmDead now we've knocked two-twenty-eight
Went to the Mu's for a feed, got some grub
Homemade mac & cheese was the dish that's whaddup
Friday
Today I turn 21, Newman as well
So many months down the drain, oh how that's swell
Went to the chapel to meet up with Terry
Talked about how we can pray when life's scary
Then went to Sifa's, he was cutting hair doe
Dude getting cut sounds like Bruce from Nemo
"Don't lose your faith..." starts a quote that's so true
"...Just know that the Lord has not lost faith in you."
Saturday
What a day, what a day, 'twas a beaut after all
Woke up at 5 cause you know we got ball
Today we biked heaps, better workout than burpees
Then Ferris came in with a clutch shout of slurpees
Then we knocked doors, "how many?" you wonder
42 mate, what a beaut of a number
Met up with Sanches tonight what a lad
With Tiatia's smiling face he couldn't be sad
Sunday
Sabbath day plus church day I'm all the way up
Fariba and Marco at church that's wassup
Dunk date was set for my soa for Marco
Then had Ward Council to start off our arvo
We went to the Ormsby's for lunch and a chat
Ate, talked, then hit the bikes quick like a cat
Biking so fast you'd think we're on a chase
To Gomez for Za, with a nice tomato base
And now we see just how great life can be
Over down under where it's cold as can be
10 weeks to go never felt any better
I finished my poem, time to put on a sweater
--
Haha, hope you enjoyed the poem. I had a great week. Talk to yous next week!
Elder Newman
Cheeto and the Boyz District
Biking to service.. had to bike like 45 min straight.
