I was done with that phase 6 months before my mission ended. It used to piss off the sister missionaries who were still trying to learn the language when I would speak english 100% of the time whenever other missionaries were present.

The best part of Double Dribble was the way you could run up and down the court with your fist up and ready to deck someone, and then you could unleash a punch on your opponent. Very realistic, especially for NBA or LDS Church basketball.

I have no memory of the fist or the fighting element of that game.

Maybe the punching mode required a code.

I made it a point to speak Spanish around the American Hermanas, just because I didn't want them to understand what I was saying. Start using those subjunctive or preterito anterior tenses and they were as good as lost.

yes, that was also an enjoyable activity. But I believe you are speaking more along the lines of casual conversation.

What really pissed off the Hermanas was when I would conduct an entire Zone or District meeting in english. Good times.
