February 10th E-mail! 4 Days Until Mexico!!!!

Ok yesterday was crazy.  CRAZY! really this week has been.  so first off Elder Ragland spranged his ankle in gym two days ago and now has to wait at the MTC for an extra month now before he can go out to any field.  that was tuesday.  monday our district went to the travel office even though we weren't supposed to and asked for our status.  we figured out that we were getting reassigned for a while.  so yesterday i'm sitting in the doctors office waiting for elder Ragland to get checked up and get his x ray results.... and my district comes storming in "Elder Day! they called you to the travel office!"  i'm like what???!  thinking since i'm the leader they are going to have all our visas yanno?  i get down there while Elder Mullen waits at the office for elder ragland.  and they said where are you going?  and i said my district is going to mexico.  and they're like. "ok Elder Day your visa came through you need to go to consolate tomorrow at 1 o clock to get it signed.  only me.  HOLY CRAP!  apparently the visa list has like 89 people on it.  and out of that only 6 elders are going to consolate today with me.  i can't even believe it.  i am so blessed!  i'm leaving the MTC on time! and am going to be in mexico on monday or tuesday!  hopefully monday. my district was a little bitter, not too much but i could feel the energy lol and it was a tid bit bitter.  but ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHHH!  i'm going to Mexico i'm so excited!  a little nervous but i know its going to be great!  the rest of my district is getting reassigned though we don't know where yet.  crazy though huh?  i'm going to probably have a native mexican companion right off the bat i heard from my teacher who served in Guadalajara that theres like a 90% percent chance i will!  Can you believe it!  how blessed am i?!  i know for a fact i have to find someone immedietely when i get down there thats the only reason i know i'm going on time.  i can't wait its going to to be great!  ok so thats that! ok yesterday was crazy.  CRAZY! really this week has been.  so first off Elder Ragland spranged his ankle in gym two days ago and now has to wait at the MTC for an extra month now before he can go out to any field.  that was tuesday.  monday our district went to the travel office even though we weren't supposed to and asked for our status.  we figured out that we were getting reassigned for a while.  so yesterday i'm sitting in the doctors office waiting for elder Ragland to get checked up and get his x ray results.... and my district comes storming in "Elder Day! they called you to the travel office!"  i'm like what???!  thinking since i'm the leader they are going to have all our visas yanno?  i get down there while Elder Mullen waits at the office for elder ragland.  and they said where are you going?  and i said my district is going to mexico.  and they're like.
