Counting sheep

Agrepina at her baptism

Well, Last saturday the 15th of April, of 2006, I counted 4 more sheep. 4 people got baptized, and the lady we taught was very ecstatic. She was a little nervous, but she continued firm, and now counts as one of the lost sheep found. This photo is me, Agrepina, Elder Quispe my ocmpanion, and the family of Agrepina. It was a special day, and on Sunday, she got confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and recieved the holy ghost. What an experience! not even 3 weeks in my new area and we had a baptism! Well, I hope you all deem this worthy of blogging, because the worth of one soul is great in the sight of God, and He would surely deem this blog-worthy.

Scorpion Sucker™ = 500%+ Protein

Today I ate the Scorpion Sucker™. That's right, I put the Scorpion Sucker™ in my mouth and I survived. I believe I have my protiens for the day. Eeaccgh (I believe that word describes the feeling of a scorpion in your mouth.)! Give me a pat on the back, and look at these frightening photos, of my quest to eat the Scorpion Sucker™...


1→Just look at the sucker! 2→In it goes

3→In the mouth
The blueberry flavor was helpful to hide the scorpions flavor. In fact, it was worse trying to eat the sucker because the scorpions claws began poking out of the sucker and it just felt really wierd, like a small stick inside a clear sucker, and as the sucker gets smaller, the stick scrapes your mouth. Anyway, after I sucked most of the blueberry stuff off the scorpion, I washed him off so I could hold him without getting all sticky. You have no idea how sticky this sucker made my fingers. Yeach! Taking off the wrapper was a work in itself. Anyway... here are the photos of me actually eating the scorpion:
4→There she be... the scorpion... 5→In she goes.  Aaahh!

6→The tail is in my mouth!  Yuck! 7→They're it is.  Yeeachgh!

After the nightmare was over, I sang a ditty:I sang a ditty And then I threw up. Okay, I didn't throw up, Late-n'-Lame April Fools joke! Nor did I sing a ditty. Another lame-n'-late april fools joke, heheh. But the scorpion eating is aaaallll real folks.
