Dear Family and Friends,
I have never been called a German so many times in my life. Ever since the German team creamed Brazil 7 to 1, everyone has started to think that I'm a German even more every day. It's gotten so bad that I don't think we went an hour of work without someone asking if I'm German or whispering to their friend, ``The German!´´ or shouting at me, ``GERMANY!´´ this week. I decided to just start having fun with it, and brush up the German I learned a million years ago by responding in German to a select few that I knew wouldn't kill me. The reactions are usually pretty priceless. The shock of , `holy cow, he really is a german´ passes the faces of the kids, and we get a good kick out of it. However because of the World Cup, this week was the hardest yet. We had p-day on Monday, as usual, a Game on Tuesday, work days Wednesday to Friday, another game on Saturday, and the World Cup finals yesterday (Congrats to Germany. Now the situation is even worse. Even the lady who runs the computer lab today asked me if I'm German). SO...not much progress was made. Now that the Cup is over and done, we'll be able to really get some work done, and I'm pretty excited for that.
I really don't think I have more news than that. I'll have much more to tell you guys next week. I love you all, and I'll see you soon!
Elder Crapo
