happy holidays everyone!
i didnt fast for yom kippur... i know im a bad jew. but i had to work, because i am taking an extra day for my sukkot holiday when i go to turkey (next week!). and i also didnt go to services, cause they were in hebrew with a bunch of old israeli people who dont like us ulpanists and are kinda rude. the bait kenesset (synagogue) is TINY so being squeezed in with them, trying to follow and get some sort of meaning out of the hebrew, while on an empty stomach, and then after that going to work seemed just not....right. i thought i would feel more jewish here, in israel, the land of the jews. actually i just feel more american, and im okay with that. the people here are not JEWISH, they are ISRAELI. there is a difference. i kinda like the american jew better than the israeli jew. i dont know, its hard to explain. im having a good time and trying to learn as much as i can, but i am definitely excited to go back to the states.
today during work, a few kibbutzniks needed to work on some water pipes, so they shut off our water. i kinda need water to clean, and they didnt let us know when they were going to shut off or turn back on the water, so i got to leave work rather early. yay. i had to work 3 days in a row, which i really didnt like. so while i was supposed to be working but there was no water, i straightened my hair. it looks kinda silly cause its a short and curly hair cut, so straight it looks weird and not layered properly.

Down, where all that I built surrounds me. Just make sure your car's got good shocks. There's steep hills, there's potholes, there's rocks.
ReplyDeletePlease tell me there are pictures of your hair.
none. it looked really bad so i showered and its all good. although, if i had a better hair cut, i would look a lot more like you than i do now. i look really different with straight and curly...like you...
