Derpy would be proud.

So. Kilmarnock is small. Very small in comparison to Limerick. 
And dark. As I type, the sun is setting at 3:36. And the first three days we were here, it was raining nonstop. So we were very wet. 
AND I MISSED HALLOWEEN. I don't mean I didn't get to celebrate it; I was ready for that. I mean the holiday didn't happen. The people of Kilmarnock celebrate Halloween on the fourth friday of october, so by the time I was here, it was over. So I missed halloween completely... 

So my new companion is Elder Goldie! I'll get yous a picture later, but he's cool. He's quite a bit like me, just a bit less nerdy. XD He actually has the same birthday as me! 4 March 1994! So we're exactly the same age! And he was at BYU the same time I was, in Fall 2012, which is why I remembered seeing him before... 
Unfortunately, he's quite a bit like me, which means we're both a bit more introverted and quiet, so it's a bit more of a task for us to talk to people on the street and in lessons. But we get along well, and have heaps in common. 

So my mailing address (just for post, not parcels) is: 
1/2 6 Jeffery St. 
Kilmarnock
KA1 4EB
Scotland

As for the title, I haven't seen more wall-eyed people in my life than I have in Kilmarnock. So many people have derpy eyes here... X) 
And the people are really cheeky. But they're way friendly, once you're talking with them. Before then though, they are pretty reclusive, and never initiate conversations on the street, and don't always reply if I say hi to them, which is pretty different from Limerick. 

So I hope you all have had a fantastic week! I love getting your emails and post, and I hope you're all doing smashingly! :D 
Cheers! :)
