we had another transfer this week. i have a new companion now, but i think i should take a moment out of this journal entry to talk about my old companion elder bacon. what a guy. although, i'm so excited for this next transfer, i was pretty sad to see him go. serving with him was just so much fun! allow me to explain. elder bacon is just this cutest little thing to ever come out of provo, utah. he's a little more quiet, and is just the most polite human being you have ever met. this works against him sometimes in the mission field, however, because it makes him an easy target for pranks from his companion. like the time when elder nichol and i were on an exchange together and we found elder bacon and elder taylor and ambushed them with snowballs, that was fun. my favorite, though, has to be when i used the light switch (which is outside of the bathroom) to turn the lights off on elder bacon while he was showering. it was so hard to contain my laughter as i heard "o, no...the power is out" coming from the bathroom. i ran to turn off the lights in the rest of the apartment. when elder bacon got out of the shower, he opened the door, turned on the light, and realized that it was all a big prank. i just smiled and asked him in slovak how his shower was. when most people would have given me a good punch in the stomach, elder bacon just smiled and laughed. he was such a good sport. i had all of these ideas for pranks i was gonig to play on him this transfer, but o well. i'm still in banska, so that's fun. i'm serving with elder smith, who i served around in blava. he's great so i'm really excited about that. we also have a new zone leader whose name you will recognize. he's a missionary that's one transfer older than me, and his name is elder durrant. with elder nichol still in the picture, we truly have the district of dreams in the city of dreams.
