Second e-mail Later that same day

Hi Mom! Yeah you can forward those emails. the branch president said we could. Thanks for the contacts and the bath towell. My schedule is so busy! i always have something to do, somewhere to go and something to study. i'll try to look into that dearelder.com where you said you made me a website. what are you going to put on that by the way? Are you going to tell everyone about my life without me knowing or what? My companion Elder Nicholes is great, he strives to be a great missionary and learn all he can. when you go on facebook you tell them it's my mom right? you dont need to go on there alot. i only have 30 min on the computer on p-day. i can only send emails to my family, but I can recieve emails from everyone. so can you let my contacts, friends know my email and mailing address? i'm glad everyone is liking my stuff :). Who got my room? I want to see what Q looks like. i miss all of you. I love you so much. I can only check emails on monday. but i can get and read letters any day of the week. I got the dearElder letter typed message like on thursday in the mail so i can read those. i like getting letters and packages:). thanks for the tic tacs and flip flops. Can i get some snacks like bags of candy, like m&ms and fruit snack and stuff. i would also like a pair of jeans. i am almost out of time so i will write you some more and tell you of my experiences and everything. i love you. thanks again - Love Elder Pennock

Elder Pennock entering the MTC Jan 6th

Zak was dropped off at the MTC on Jan 6th by Tara & Brian. He was super excited! Those are the same suitcases his dad used on his mission. He wasn't so excited about using them. He bought some fancy new ones, but was told by some ex Philippine missionaries that they were going to be thrown from buses and land in the mud and get thrashed, so he opted to use the old ones.
