"Mi companero is the youngest in the district and I am the oldest by far.  I get along with him very well.  He just has a hard time being a leader.  He has the great thoughts and mind of a leader but has troubles making decisions.  The district will ask him something and he will tell them to figure it out.  When we plan at night he has a hard time making choices that make sense.  He picks random times to do things.  He doesn't think through the planning.  I always have to keep us on track time wise.  I tell him where we need to be and when.  He doesn't care if we are late.  As a matter of fact, he doesn't care about many of the rules.  After saying all these bad things about him, I think it all comes down to that he isn't very organized and he hasn't had to be.  He is learning very quickly.  He's a very smart guy.  He really wants to do great things.  He spirit works between us.  We teach well together.  He asks me for advice a lot.  He's humble.  We have the same sense of humor.  We've pulled pranks on each other a lot.  It's like having a little brother.  He has some cool ideas.  He's altogether fun to be with.  I'm learning stuff from him too. He's getting way good at spanish.  He's better than me, but I'm working on that.  He's a good companion and I'm lucky to have him."
