I love it here at the MTC, it's really going to be an awesome place for me.  Already I have learned a great deal about many things, including the language.  Slovak is very difficult.  It is complex in ways very different than English or French.  It even sounds very strange.  I know I am going to need the blessings of the Lord to help me to learn this.  My companion's name is Elder Williams, and he's a really good guy.  I think we're going to get along very well.  The two of us are the only one's in the language class that are going to England, the rest are all going to the Czech Slovak mission on the Slovakia side.  In fact, I was told by my branch president that we are the first Elders that they have going to England speaking Slovak!  I guess there won't exactly be anyone to train us when we get there.  From what it looks like, we'll either have English speaking companions or we'll be with each other over there too.
