ok well i am still here in israel. a little over 3 months? since the war came to a break. i spent half of the war in tsfat and the other half in other places in israel. i love this country. personally i think it is the only place for all jews to live, religous and non. it really doesnt make a difference i have lived here as both and there is definantly something special in the air and land here.
moshiach now
ok well this is really going to have absolutly nothing to do with learning to speak hebrew other than i wish mine was better so i can better understand the news.
a couple of days ago i left the katusha filled city of tsfat. desided that it was just a bit to nerve racking for me to be there when at least 3 times i was almost hit.
i dont know how many have actually fallen but i do know that at least 100 fall about everyday into the old city and surrounding waddies.
i am writing just to let everyone know that tsfat still stands and not everything has been destroyed and to say that israel will come out on top. as we learn from the torah everyone who goes against the land of israel always falls. this is true from the times of the torah until today.
thanks for letting me vent for two seconds.
so there is this new band out called kabbalah dream orchestra. it is one of my teachers bands in seminary. i would just like to tell everyone you should check them out they are great. you dont have to take it from me you can listen to them yourself @ http://www.myspace.com/kabbalisticdreamorchestra
also a few other good bands are simply tsfat and moshav band
support israel
listen to good music
well im back in israel and am studying at machon alte, in tsfat. i am absolutely loving it there. the people are great and the learning is intense.
spent 5 months on a kibbutz milking cows then learned real quick why my father told me to go work in the dairy and not in the kitchen. must say it was the best advise i ever took. people in the kitchen are just too wierd.
so the cheapest plane tickets i was able to find was from israir. they had a sale where the tickets were only $249+ tax each way. it is costing me about the same just to go to NY, how sad.
3 weeks and counting and im back in israel. but it will be only 2 weeks and i will be leaving home to go visit fam. before i leave (hopefully this time for good). :)
so for hannuka a friend of mine and myself made sufganiote (filled donuts). they were sooooo good, but we gave most (less the 2 we tasted to make sure they were edible) to the israelis working in the mall. it was so nice how greatful they were and to be able to put a smile on there faces.
i love shabbos. its a great way to to rest up for the new week full of mitzvot.
well in just a few more weeks i am going back to israel. i lived there only for a short while and i learned some hebrew i just wish now i spoke to more people in hebrew while i was living in the states cause i have forgotten quite a bit of it. hopefully it will all come back to me when i am there, except maybe my grammer could be better that the last time.
i cant believe it in a little over three weeks i leave this little country town of mine a get to go to tsfat, israel and study in seminary. yeah, i am sooooo excited. it will be so much fun. yeah
so i really have no explanation for this except that i love to travel. but it has always been a dream of mine to work on an airplane. i just think that they are really cool.
so there are some people who collect shirts from all of the colleges that they have ever visited or new people that whent there, well i am going to try to collect as many shirts from chabad outreach centers as possable. so if anyone is a member of chabad and their shul or house has shirts let me know cause i want to get my hands on it.
i learned to speak hebrew in israel while living there for 2.5 years. unfortunantly since ive come back to the states i have forgoten a lot when it comes to speaking (not understanding). oh well hopefully it will only to take me a couple of months or less to get back to speaking once i am back in tsfat in january.
sooo worth doing. only been to 4 countries so far and cant count the states. still would love to see more.
im so frustrated, i needed a cheap ticket like yesterday. if anyone can help please do so? and if i find a really good deal i will let all know about it.
lehitraote y’all
i so wish i were better at this. i have so many friends over there and i just can only seem to keep in touch with like 1 or 2 of them. mainly cause they contact me and not the other way around. oh well hopefully i will contact them when i am back in january or at least run into them on the streets of jerusalem.
