On Dnepropetrovsk

 That's D-ne-prop-ye-trov-sk for those of us who aren't familiar with Ukrainian. If I never learn another word in Russian, at least I'll be able to say where I'm supposed to be. Днепропетро́вск is how it is spelled in Russian, so be thankful you get to read it in English!

I can't wait to get to Ukraine and serve the people there. Hopefully my time in the MTC will be as short as possible. Of course, that's a double-edged sword; the less time in the MTC, the less proficient I will be at speaking Russian! I hope that I learn quickly.

As I'm writing this, it's my last day in San Antonio. I'll miss home, I'm sure, but right now I only want  to be on my way as expediently as humanly possible. It was nice having one last hot summer before I get sent to a place with actual seasons.

I love you all!
