This week has been... better. I learned this week that elder Basilan used to be a video game tester. Also, Friday night we had a brownout, that was pretty cool. It was so hot we couldn’t sleep that night because the electric fans didn't work. And brownouts are actually very common, that's the second one this week and the 8th since I've been here.
On Saturday I got about 5435436612 bites from an ant, I’ll email a picture in just a second, my foot got all swollen, but I never felt any pain. I taught 23 lessons this week, which is really low for the area. President wants us to get 40, but we usually average between 29 and 32. The weather here is just hot. I complained about it when I first got here, and in January it was relatively cold, but this is hotter than a human body should ever be subjected to on a daily basis.
We generally eat rice and whatever we bought at the palengke that week. Basically it depends on what they are selling at the market.
Our district usually meets twice a week, once on p-day and once for district meeting. The culture and I get along really well. I actually don’t want to come home because I already almost died adjusting to one culture, I don’t want to have to do that again.

(p.s. tell McKenzie happy birthday. I sent her a gift).
