Girls football VICTORY, school, and Thanksgiving!!!

I've done so much since I last updated!! Monday was a regular school day, and then Monday night we WON OUR FIRST FOOTBALL GAME!!! It was against some Yeshiva girls and it was super exciting. Tuesday was a regular day and we had a short Erev Nativ, pretty much just announcements of what is going on over the next few weeks, because everyone had midterms this week and some people were stressed. I only had 2 finals: Art History and Talmud. Wednesday was also a regular day.

Today was Thanksgiving!!! I was kind of sad to not be at home with my family but Nativ made it really fun for us. At 5:30, all of the Nativers and lots of Bogrei Naivers who made aliyah gathered in the chapel where we davened minca, watched the new Nativ promo video (which I'm in by the way), watched a video that some Nativers made about Thanksgiving, and then Kol Nativ (the Nativ a capella group) performed 2 songs and they were amazing! Then we ate a delicious, traditional Thanksgiving dinner: turkey, sweet potatoes, green beans, pumpkin pie, etc. They surprised us by giving us envelopes of letters from our families! That was a wonderful surprise. After dinner we watched another video about Thanksgiving that Nativers made and the staff told us why they are thankful for us. That was pretty cute. Then we watched all of the Thanksgiving-themed Friends episodes- they are all very funny. After that I went out for a little with some friends, and now I'm going to bed.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!
