So, my brother is on his mission now. He's in Pennsylvania as we speak preaching the Gospel and sharing the blessings of Christ's Atonement in his life and our lives. It's been nice sharing the letters I sent him everyday in the MTC. I enjoyed sharing the Testimony of the Gospel that I have with him. I know that the Gospel is on the Earth today, restored through Joseph Smith. That we have the literal power of God that we can exercise when needed. It is called the Holy Priesthood of God. My life is so much the better for having the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in my life. I have great parents. Sure, they are not perfect in the least, but they have been a help and guide to me in my life in everything I do.
I'm a Peruvian young man, well, half Peruvian, half white. I live in California right now, with my parents, although I am thinking of moving back to Utah for a time. It'll be a period of self-discovery. Not just that, but in the past month I have started dating and become boyfriend and girlfriend with a girl who lives in Provo, Utah. Her name is Sarah Rebecca Trefflich and she is an amazing girl. I am blessed to have her in my life. I met her through a mutual friend. Tyler Hudrlik, one of my very best friends from the church, recommended her to me. She is his coworker and he thought we would hit it off, and hit it off we did. We still haven't met personally, but we are sure that our meeting was not an accident or coincidence and that we were prepared for each other. Me having had 3 previous relationships and no success in the dating game in my YSA ward, and she having had a difficult journey as well. She works at a call center and just recently got a new job in Salt Lake, as well as a life coach to several clients that she has. She is very inquisitive, which I love, always searching for the meaning of words and actions that I do. She is from a family of nine, being second youngest. She is extremely wise and I love her for that.
I told her tonight that I am getting Cali nostalgic, and I haven't even left the state yet. I still haven't told my parents my thoughts of moving to a new state. Well, not that new; I've lived there before. But I sure do love California and I love my ward. I will be really sad to leave it. I am the Executive Secretary to Bishop Elliott Ellsworth. He's only been my bishop for a couple months, but I do love that man and his counselors, Brothers Brian O'Neill and Brother Harris. However, some of the do know about my new relationship.
I like tennis, but I don't know if I love it. I'll play it every time someone challenges me, but watching it can get so monotonous. I bring this up because Wimbledon starts on Monday of this month and go for two weeks. I watched the final between Nadal and Wawrinka on tv during the French Open which was completed a few weeks ago. I was so bored until Wawrinka broke his racket in frustration at the end of the 3rd set. That was exciting! Nadal creamed him, it was not even fun to watch. I challenged some of my friends, Chris Chandroo and Bethanie Stott to a match, but it still hasn't happened. We'll see if it ever does happen.
This is my second month completing an online journal. It's going well.
I love music with a passion. I just recently bought myself a new ukulele and it has been really fun and a bit easy to learn. I just got a capo for it and I'm learning all the songs I love so much. I'm also playing out of the Children Songbook as well.
This month, next Friday, I'm looking forward to seeing the Marvel Cinematic Universe's newest installment: Spider-man Homecoming. I'll probably see it with my two friends and brothers, Gus and Axel, plus the rest of their family, Sandy, Arcy, and their friend George. I have been waiting for this movie ever since I have heard about it. I can't wait to see it. I now own all the MCU's movies, thanks to dad buying me the ones I didn't have that were pirated. I do own quite a bit, though.
Our family is really close. We love each other to death. I love being the oldest. Even though sometimes it was hard being the first, I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love my siblings with a passion.
I'm looking forward to a new six months for the year 2017. I expect great things coming. I can't wait to see what transpires.
