Leben auf Magnolienstrasse

Long flight. I slept, read, and listened to my iPod. The reading lights on the plane were broken, they would randomly flicker on and off. Everyone thought they were bumping the switch on the arm rest, or that they were going crazy. I think the people were going crazy. Muahaha! Jk... So they finally shut them all off.

I don't think I really realize I am here yet, it's a strange feeling. I'm sure in a week or so I will feel settled and I'll say "hey, I'm a thousand miles from home!" I love it here so far though, but miss all of you.

Zurich is a beautiful city. We can walk anywhere we need to get, or take the tram. Went to my first meeting tonight. The congregation is so warm. All the accents are so neat to listen to. Field service is alot different over here. I am going out on Saturday, so I will tell more about it later. I haven't taken any pictures of the city yet, but here are a few of our apartment and Kingdom Hall.


German, English, Tamil, Italian, Spanish, Turkish and Yugoslavian congregations.

Deliverance At Hand!

I think the finish line's a good place we could start

At the end of a good, long week of service, there is nothing I look forward to more than soccer on Sunday with my friends!

I am moving to Zurich, Switzerland for 2 months. My dad's job wanted him in Europe for some time so my mom and I are going to live with him there so he is not alone. My parents are already over there, so I fly over alone on the 28th of this month, the morning after the convention. I am excited about living there, it will be a great experience. I put in my regular pioneer application a short while ago, so I will be starting off the service year over there, which I am excited to start. My dad found the English congregation in the city for us.

I will miss all of you!

Your glare is killing me

Long weekend. But a good one. Soccer was great! We played at a new field up by Mike Vergara's house. It is bigger and better. Note to self: bring more water next time.

I can't wait for the convention! Just a few more weeks.

My electric guitar amp was delivered today. It is super portable and has a great sound for its size. $7 on eBay. No joke. Just because it had a little scratch on the top and some guy used it a few times. Mechanically, it is fine. To my sister in the next room behind the paper-thin walls of our house, not fine. I should crank it up at midnight. Then I'll end up sleeping in the garage. Haha!
