I am writing one of my friends' who is on a mission in Japan right now (he's on the south island, so he wasn't affected by the tsunami), and he brought up something I found to be pretty funny. So, it turns out that my buddy who's been out for a little over a year, absolutely HATES missionary work. He loves Japan, the culture and living accommodations, but he is so fed up with being a missionary and living the missionary lifestyle. The funny part of this story, is as I was reading his most recent email he sent to me, he said that he was so fed up, really wanting to come home, and his companion was insane, he went out and bought a bunch of cigs and would buy alcohol and get trashed in his apartment on a lot of nights. HAHA! I probably shouldn't think that's funny, but I do. He even went and saw that movie Tron on his mission too haha. His comp eventually narked on him, and he was sent to a therapist, but not sent home. He said he is doing better and has a different companion, but that he is going to try and live out the last year of his mish as chill as possible. And he always talked about when the second he gets home, he is going to light up a huge bowl of weed and have sex with lots of girls ;) Anyway, not that this has to do with anything substantial, it just made me think of how many missionaries do these kinds of rebellious things on their missions... Or is my friend just the exception?
