i know i said i'd finish writeing about mission team BUT THIS IS REALLY INTERESTING!!!

today i went to yugioh (yawn, you don't wanna hear about this, do you?) and since me and one other kid were the only people who signed up for the tournement they canceled it. which was fine with me becuase it meant i could take a break from losing. so then i spent most of the time trading and playing with this one guy (who i later found out is named Vlad) who spoke russian, estonian, and english quite well. so i after that we left and walked together to the R kiosk where he bought a lottery ticket and some gum. now as a missionary i said to myself, "a lottery ticket? dude, this guys like 16!!". and so as he was scratching the thing to see if he won i talked to him about the lottery, asking him if he ever won, (he won 10 kroon once, impressive huh?) and i asked him how much money he had spent on tickets. he didn't even want to think about how much he'd spent on lottery tickets, and with his current total earnings from the lottery being 10 kroon, i think i made my point when i said "see, thats why i don't play the lottery". so then we went and played cards on a bench for an hour before he had to go home, and i almost invited him to youth group at kolgata tommorow but i thought that would totally freak him out. but now i'm kicking myself, becuase what i should have invited him to, but didn't even think of, was going up! duh!! big kewl teen concert!! come on!! stupid, stupid, stupid!! loll, loll, loll!! well what ever. i'll see him next week. so now i can almost officially say i have a friend in tartu, now i can no longer complain to meaghan and sarah and say "you think your lifes bad...". but seriously, it's about time. whats it been, 10 months? more? well who cares, i kinda have a friend now, so i am officially happy. good night.
