Some Nativ days

This has been such an insane week, which it why it has been so long again since I've posted. I have 3 papers to write (freshman writing, foreign policy, and talmud), and I want to get those all done before my mom and Rebecca come in 9 days! I also filled out my USY on Wheels staff application and learned some Torah for Weinstein in 2 weeks.

I've had normal classes all week.

Last Tuesday night for Erev Nativ, we were supposed to go on a hike but it was raining, so Eyal's grandparents talked to us about the Palmach. Wednesday and Thursday were normal days... but Thursday night I went to this really cool concert at the Yellow Submarine of a band called Marsh Dondurma. It was 15 people all playing different musical instruments. The played some jazz songs, some more Middle Eastern songs, and some straight up marching band-esque songs. It was a lot of fun!

Friday morning I went to the shuk and then it was time to get ready for shabbat. It was a closed shabbat, so everyone stayed on base. Friday night we had services all together and then dinner on base, and Saturday I went to services at Kedem and then had lunch on base. I napped a lot, and then Saturday night I went to Waffle Bar and walked around Ben Yehuda a little bit with Jake.

Sunday morning Jake and I woke up at 4:15 a.m. to go to Hadaya to get a bracelet for Jake's sister, because if you're the first customer, you get 50% off. Unfortunately, we were not the first, so that was pretty sad.

The rest of Sunday was normal. I had classes and then did a lot of work, and today so far has just been normal classes.

Bye!
