A Normal Sunday

Well today I had to wake up early because church was at 10. After not being able to sleep last night, this was kind of a problem but now I will be able to sleep tonight. Church was great! There's two young women, one is 13 and one is 15 and I'm so happy that I'm not the only one. There's also two young men besides Weston, one just turned 16 and the other one I have no idea how old he is but I think around 14. They want to hang out with me and Weston on thursday and they want to eat pizza! I'm excited to be involved in the church and have some friends! One of the sisters in the ward is the seminary teacher and she came to my house today and gave me a Spanish Book of Mormon and summer seminary homework. Once school starts, they meet once a week on saturdays at the church and I think I'm going to go, and also do my homestudy for Orem Seminary. It's a lot of work but I seem to have a lot of free time because my host brothers are always studying. The rest of the day I tried to read the Book of Mormon in Spanish and failed miserably! I don't know how people learn to speak that way because it was impossible for me. But when I read Spanish Harry Potter I can understand much better!
Today I also learned that there are a lot of problems between the only boys I know here. For example, Gonzalo said that Miguel and him are not friends but him and William are and William and Miguel are friends, but William said that Gonzalo and Miguel do not like William because he's not cool enough. Also, Gonzalo said that Miguel lies to his parents and lot, which might be true, but he also said that he doesn't drink, which according to Miguel is a lie. I've only been here five days and already I'm caught up in this drama! Back in Utah I believed everyone but now I'm not sure who to believe and I don't really care, so I wish they would stop bothering me about what the other person said about them!
Well it's been a long day and tomorrow I have nothing planned so it will be even longer, but it's fun to be around my family and I think my spanish is getting a little better!
