I DONT WANT TO WRITE MY ESSAY!!!!

SFKGJBD;GKJBD

This is the poem that I am analyzing. 

Graphic design is the new Israel APUSH class.

The email that I just sent to Auntie:

"Right now I'm in dumb boring stupid graphic design class that I am only taking to fill a period. It is actually the most annoying class ever. 

I zone out until she (the very VERY large teacher, whose name I forget all the time) stops talking. THEN thats when I ask her what to do, as if I should have payed attention to the past 20 mins of class. After that I wizz through the petty assingment, with a few road bumps, and amazingly finish the work with 25 mins to spare until lunch. Wow, what an intriguing class. NOT.

I just read this email and laughed out load in class. No one knew what I was laughing at. As always. I expicially love the end: your right, mom should just work there. She needs a life."

Hmmmm...what a wonderful life I lead.

Unfortunatly its all true.

I dont know why the font is magically so large. 

Hello friendly readers.

Once again about not keeping up. I was at camp for 2 months as you read last time, but MUCH has happened since then.

I made some AMAZING friends at camp this summer, especially my israeli ones. 

Sia, Shimi, and Anat, I miss them all.

Yesterday was really hard for me because I went to vball for the first time in 6 months. I started out fine and then broke down after shanking 3 balls in a row. I told coach that I had to leave and betach he had no clue what I was talking about. Baruch Hashem that mom was in the parking lot: I just got in and drove out to the highlands and cried while parked on the top of this mountain over looking the coast. It made me feel a lot better, but I still missed everything.

Then, last night I got into bed at 9:30 [Keep in mind that I woke up that day at 3 in the afternoon], and layed in bed thinking about Israel and playing the game "name all the hebrew words you know". All alone. For 2 hours. 

I finally went to bed at 12.

BUT. TODAY WAS MY FIRST DAY AS A SENIOR!!

It was SO awesome. I had lunch with my friends, met my great teachers, went out to sushi, chased around the chickens, then did homework. 

Tonight I'm going to watch the meteor shower. Achla bachla. 

P.S: I love Aaron Arkin (see picture above). 

swine 09.

Hello everyone. Sorry its been such a long time since I've written anything. Since leaving Israel my life has definitly had its ups and downs. While I was at home for 2 weeks I got my permit, went to graduation, hung out with friends, and watched every episode of the office ever made. Then I went to camp for a day...and then OFF to Mechina (kutz camp in new york). I went on the religious and cultural trip and then got to bond with my central western region board. I love them SO much. It rained and all I had at night was a top sheet, awesome. I wore my scooby doo costume, it went well. I learned SO much and I am so proud and grateful to be jewish. 

Now I am back at camp, I got in at 12 at night, and the next day I woke up with swine flu. 

Swine 09. Wassup?

In quarantine for a week, but I get out tomorrow cause my time is up. Noice. 

All I want to do is go back to Israel. 

Israel. Israel. Israel. Israel. Israel.

ugh

im so tired

im drained

im studying so hard but i feel like im going to fail my ap tests

i have to make my yearbook page but i havnt

;djsbf;dkfjb

1. poland

2. passover

3. yam l'yam

4. DRAMA

so much dumb stuff that happened that was un-necessary. 

i dont really know how much into detail i can go into now AVAL....today i had sat prep in the morning and then these little ethiopian girls came and hung out with a group of us. 

we went to the m'ay'yan (spring) and make pitot and spray painted shirts. they all spoke in hebrew and taught us stuff. they loved taking pictures on my camera, it was a BIG step for me. 

the said that in their native language that gazoov was good job. 

i made a little friend that growled and screached (in a cute way) at me the whole time.

independence day was fun. fireworks. pictures. re-making friends. rikuuday am with tzuba people. then dancing in jerusalem. but no ben yehudah because the drunkards ruined it for us. 

color war with alexandar moss kids. they were dumb little LA rich kids. we won expect for vball. sorry guys.

I was late to APUSH today.

We had a half day tyiul today. 

We learned about Islam and went to a Mosque.

Then to an Arab street market where I bought this scarf hat thing.

Then when we got back I slept for an hour and a half.

I still have to do my physics homework.

I would really like to shower right now.

I STILL have to write my speech. UGH.

Time to take notes now.

L'hitraot.

Weight.

Oh yeah,

I've gained a whole lot of weight.

All off of this freaking Bisli grilled:

Long time no blog huh?

Hey Zachery,

I know we havn't talked in a while.

I'm in APUSH right now, we are talking about Japanese immigrants.

I'm still waiting to here if I got into the CIT session at my camp. I'm really nervous that I wont get in. I also have to write a speech because I am running for religious and cultural vice president of my NFTY region - aka I am the one who writes services for all the Jews. 

This past weekend we went to a street in Jerusalem and I had really good frozen yogurt and spicy chinese food. 

Then, Auntie I know you will read this, I bought a present(s) for my aunt. I think that she will REALLY like them. I also bought Harry Potter and the order of the pheonix on dvd (in hebrew).

Then on Friday night we went to the club that is on the Kibbutz and hung out in the giant hamster wheel in the park.

My mom will be here in 2 days and I'm pretty excited.

AH, right now it is raining REALLY hard. Its almost hailing.

Last night Naomi (my madricha) said that I reminded her of Rori Gilmore. YESSSS.

Aparentally, according to Ori and the rest of the boys, women are made for the kitchen.

Thus, Ori tells me every minute of every day that I should just go cook him food.

Its kol beseder, Ori is the one that eats it all.....

"Every where he goes... Ori wants to know..... Wheres the food????"

New Roommies.

I just got home from our 10 day trip.

We went to the army. I got an award for my group. Acknowledged achievement or something.

RITA ROTATION!!!!!

Then off to Eilat. Jordan on the left and Egypt on the right.

I didn't go snorkling because I'm scared of fish swimming next to me.

I practiced throwing rocks with my toes.

Shopping. New boots, shirt, scarf ( I already got chocolate on it, NOICE), hair wrap, earings, bracelet.

No more EB :/ whatevskeets, still friends which makes me happy.

Jordy is in my room now. 

No roommies = devan, rona, and adina.

I'm having home withdrawels. Thats not how you spell it, I miss the following:

Vball team, NFTY friends, BIRTY, school friends

And of course the parentals.

I had a quite day today.

I have hebrew homework and it makes me want to cry.

I'm going to unpack and change now.

Wait.

Here is my phone with some faded stickers that me and Wolfish bought at the markoleet. My pelephone has a GIANT crack on the screen cause I dropped it the day that I bought it: I saw the hamster wheel, screamed, ran, and dropped the phone.

And here is the Pooh Bear phone case that I found ON the ground at Ben Yehudah Street

Solid eh?

Hey Jude.

My roommate Judith has to go home because she has to get surgery on her arm.

Her dad is really not a good person.

I hope he knows that.

Gadna is next week and I'm semi excited and semi nervous. I know ill have fun in the end but im just scared that my asthma will give me problems.

I thought that I lost my camera today, but it was just hiding in my backpack. So no worries.

School is really hard here.

But math is taking a U-Turn and starting a subject that I know about.

Me and Lou spend all our time with the boys just sitting in their room.

We're super cool?

I learned how to pop my gum, also super cool.

I had SAT math prep class last night, it made me really frustrated and mad. I hope I do good on it. Tomorrow I have an apush test and I don't know what to do. I've been working hard? But tonight we're all going to have a study sesh.

I still have to do my CIT interview and regbo letter of intent and everything. Ugh, I want it all to be done and over with.

I'm going to get assigned a house to stay with over Passover. I'm excited for it. 

Ben Azriel comes home tomorrow I think. Weird huh? One leaves and one comes back.

We're going to have a memorial service tomorrow night in honor of his dad. I hope that his adjustment back into eie is smooth. 

Tomorrow and the next day = TUILIM SUCKAS!

Super excited for this weekend, I dont really know why though.

Alright, free period now. 

Later dudes.

Pooh Bear.

When we went to ben yehudah street I found this REALLY cute Pooh Bear phone case on the ground.

the festival was SOOOO cute and fun. 

I'm glad that I went and ignored most of my homework, I mean, I would rather experience things and catch up than never experience things and be diligent and what not.

Its just my lack of motivation flaring up again.

anyways.

the festival was on this part of a kibbutz that we had to walk on this long path through grape fields and what not. 

aka BTZIRRRRRR.

grape harvesting into wine.

first day.

Hello friends.

Today is my first day in Israel.

I absolutly LOVE it here.

The plane ride was not fun because my head hurt and I couldn't sleep even though I bought stuff to make me sleep. 

Right now I'm in my room with my three room mates, all fromthe east coast. I'm so tired. i dont want to make real sentences.

my tummy hurts.

im sitting on the balcony looking out upon the lights of jerusalem, its THE single most beautiful thing that i have ever seen.

it looks like there is fog all thgougout the city.

ahhhh.

the internet here sucks and i almost freaked out because when i went to sign onto my blog i realized it was all it hebrew.

thank god that one of my room mates can semi speak hebrew.

i love you all and miss you like crazy.

Quick.

I realized that the baby powder smell was coming from me, it was the body wash in the shower.

WHY?

In The Heights.

Today mom, me, nancy, sam, and joseph, went to a matinee of In The Heights the musical. It was a very interesting show. All about these Latinos who wanted to make a better life for their community in New York. The dancing was kinda a mix between hip hop, modern, and salsa. It smelt like baby powder throughout the whole thing, and I knew that it wasn't me. Then we had to go back to the place where we had lunch (I didn't eat anything because I had just eaten grape nuts with lactaid chocolate milk for breakfast an hour earlier) and get my scarf that I forgot there. Then me and mom came home and I played wii for about an hour and a half. I've gotten really good I must admit.

I'm all packed up now, unfortunately I had to get rid of a whole bunch of stuff, and tomorrow I'm off off and away to the land of milk and honey.

If I don't get a chance to talk tomorrow then here:

My plane is at 11pm and I'm nervous/excited/giddy/all emotions jam packed into one.

LALALALALALALALALA.

Alright.

Oh, ps. I love all of my friends and my family so crazy much. You all mean so so much to me. Thank you all for everything that you have given me.

Sleep well my friends, for this is the last time I shall be speaking to you from America for the next 4 months.

Sianarah.

Leather Jacket.

Hello friends, today I bought a leather jacket.

But first, lets go over last night: mom and I went and saw Chicago! Yeeee. It was great. Bob Fosse dancing and all. But what was a little odd was the choice of Roxie Hart, who was played by Michael's boss in the office. Weird huh? But yeah, she wasn't a great dancer, which was a bum because that was what the role was all about. Whatevskeets though.

Umm. So today, mom and I finally left the house at 2 and went to the plaza. Ahhh, I've wanted to be Eloise sooo bad ever since I was a little child. The plaza was as beautiful as ever. I never wanted to leave. Then I got to show mom the cool apple store, and soon it was off to H&M to get my leather jacket. I LOVE IT. I'm so excited to wear it tomorrow. 

AH, seriously, cab drivers hate us. 

We tried to get a cab and he just said NO. Who does that? Really?

We finally got one of those black cars the drive us home, he was super nice, but he drove wild (just like the rest of um).

Oh. We had really good pizza and pasta for lunch. 

So when we got home I taught mom how to play wii. I think that I peed my pants laughing so hard. Then I challenged myself to a game of wii tennis by holding both remotes in my hands and going back and forth between the screens...everyone should do it....SO FUN.

Afterwards:

Coffee ice cream/yogurt, brownies, more wii, and facebook. 

I'm leaving in a day.

Ah. 

My liffffeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

Alright, I should go to bed, its currently 1:42 am.

Keep on smiling.

Uhhhhh.

Today me and mom went to Soho to go shopping. 

Cousin Sam gave us his subway pass so we got on for free. 

We decided to follow three French girls around the tube...they got us lost. 

Of course, because I hate getting lost in situations like this, I freaked out.

We finally got to Soho and it was freezing again. I didn't buy anything but some earings, and now I regret not buying this really cute leather jacket from H&M.

Ahhhh, I didn't have the best of days today.

It is now official that New York is crossed off of my optional states to live in when I grow up.

What else.....hmmm....

There are soo many accents here. That is one thing I like about New York.

To make up for my badish day, mom bought some baclavah. AND I recycled in New York, I thought that there was too much trash here, thus no hope. But no, I was relieved to know that there are bins about every 2-3 blocks.

I saw this video on youtube by this guy:

Livelavalive

and it was sooo funny. I was laughing soo hard when I watched the happy birthday remix thing.

I never really realized how many friends I had at home until I left.

Now I'm semi sad that I didn't make the most out of Carmel people during 1st semester and what not. But at least now I know that when I come home, there will be a great greeting for me.

Anyways, tonight mom and I are going to go see chicago, and of course I'm stupid and forgot a nice dress. I have nothing to wear. I want to go hide under a rock. and I'm tired. and I'm whining, which I dont want to do because I SHOULD be having fun.

Blahhhhhh.

Oh, Ps. That picture is me being a bamf aka me erryday o' mah lyfe.

Kay, bye <3

Mean Cabbys.

Today mom and I went to kill time at a mall right down the street before our matinee of South Pacific. Man do I love musicals. The show was very good, but VERY VERY long. I got really tired about halfway through. We left at about 5 and got into a cab. That was my first experience with a mean cab driver, he was SOOOO rude. Mom had a bad taste in her mouth so she spit into a napkin and he FREAKED out. Saying that it was a way of  public transportation and that it was gross and unpolite. I thought that cab drivers were weird, but I'm sure that they have seen way worse things and not fliped out. Now we are back at the house and I am really tired. 

I also have to REPACK all of my stuff because I have too too much.

Oh, ps. - shout out to Hannah. I love you a whole lot.

I'm going to eat now.

Goodbye and Lilah Tov.

Sperm.

I'm videochatting with Sperm right now. I'm going to miss her a lot while I am gone.

Yesterday I bought the rest of my clothes for Israel and I spent the day with dad.

So, last night...

First let me talk about yesterday, aka worst day of my life. I had 2 finals as well as a math test. My brain was on the verge of exploding when this kid in my English class made THE most anti-Semitic comment to me. He made his fingers into a Hitler mustache raised his arm and started to say things in German. I was so offended that I just left the class. 

Then after class I chewed his head off. He deserved it. 

Then, more bad things happened: Couldn't take my permit test so how I'm going to have to wait until June. No fun. 

But things started to lighten up in the evening, no worries:My dad came over and gave me my new Toms. YAY.

Then Emily came over and we got ready for the "red light green light" dance.

We went to the dance, made up some new dance moves, and then walked home when it was over.

THEN, we went over to Zack's house and played video games.

Emily became really delirious and started to laugh at everything, and then she crashed on the top bunk. 

We left at 12:15 am. 

Blahh.

2nd Blog.

 I'm having a bad day. I'm scared that I will never graduate high school, go to college, and never get a job. Thus all of my family abandoning me and hating me. 

All I want to do is make them proud, but its so hard for me to do so when I dont have that natural drive to succeed. 

I would much rather do the work that I am able to do without my teachers being horrible people and hating me. 

Finals are on thursday and friday for me. 

Lets hope I pass.

Also, I dont like this kid Jeff who goes to my school. He is ignorant and dumb.

Welcome.

This is my first blog entry. I am still in America. Leaving in 2 weeks. 

Over.
