Hey There

Update:

Shabbat Shalom, everyone. It's friday, no classes, no real activities. This morning we did Tz'dakah (like charity) at local preschools. It was fun, but it was hard to communicate with them because of the language barrier. They were adorable, though. We got there just in time to see their simulation of an Israeli family celebrating Shabbos-we chanted prayers and played with them, as well as preparing for Tubeshvat (the birthday of trees and plants and other such natural things). We planted small plants and I really enjoyed it =]

Some sad stuff has come to pass in the past week, so things here have been a little off..people in and out of the hospital, family emergencies back home, it's all been a bit strange. Just when I was getting comfortable with the friendly faces, they start going away. 

I don't know.

Everything is still good around here. 

I miss everyone a lot.

I miss my family (weird, no?)

I miss school...even though classes here are far more fun and engaging.

I miss my friends.

You are all wonderful people.

Thank you for reading.

I'd post pictures but this website won't let me-i'll get up a few albums on facebook in the next few days.

Hope to hear from you all soon!
