My Friend Guna












SO.. today i went to the salon again, and i finally got to wear my hair down. (odd i know, but i cant use my straightener here so i never can fix it) so Guna fixed my hair this morning at Salon, then we went to talk around Madona. We had to get ingredients to make food for the youth Bible study this evening. so we walked to eat lunch and then to Rimi, the other local grocery. shopping was interesting, becuz i have to tell her the things i need but she doesnt always know what i am talking about. so it was fun. i had to explain to her what lard or shortening was... that took a while. but we got it all figured out. Fun Fact #1 about Latvija they carry nothing in bulk! which to a costco shopper it was odd. but i like it here very much. Then Guna and i had to walk all the way back across Madona to get to my house, with all our food. and we took the scenic route... but it was worth it. we went through Lovers Park (the pictures with the ducks) and we went to see a fountain. and the local ampitheatre.  Fun Fact #2 about Latvija , whenever people get married you take a lock and lock it into a bridge and throw the key off into the water. so there are pictures of some locks. i think it is a kool tradition. and if i ever get married i want to do it to. and then back to the day, Guna and i came back to my home and we hang out, make food, talk to each other about many things. Guna is a great person, and really loves God. so we had youth Bible study here at the house. normally like 20 kids come but 2night only 5 girls came. Diks lead the study and he would ask me questions and i would talk some. but 2mrw i am goin to go see a girl form youth group becuz she wants to get to know me better. then at 6 i have womens Bible study and then at 8 i have volleyball with Diks. i am excited. people are starting to take an interest in me.
