So since my last post I had my last week of Ulpan! My real classes start next Monday! (I have Sundays off!).
On Tuesday I met with the professor that I will be doing my independent study with which was exciting! In order to meet with her I had to navigate Jerusalem all by myself and sure enough on my way there my cell phone died so luckily I figured everything out!
I also got accepted into the class that I wanted in which I get to do a fellowship. I will be contacting the school on Sunday (Israeli weeks are sunday-thursday) to see if I will be able to be an assistant teacher for English in their elementary school!
Quick funny story-- The Israeli neighbor downstairs came up and was visiting with me, Shayna, and Rose (the sisters next door) and said he was breaking up with his girlfriend... when asked why he replied that she was too "sticky" haha (clingy)
We caught a bus back around 5 am and landed back in our beds around 7am ... much different than my nights out at home! Shayna and Rose have been here for a long time so they are much better at hebrew and able to navigate around so I feel like I was in good hands! It was a blast and in the summer we will stay the night and then spend the day on the beach but its too cold to do that now. We will have many more crazy adventures in the weeks to come i'm sure :)
Before I forget here is a shout out to Cody who is proof that if you nag me enough I will put you in my blog... JUST KIDDING! Cody is one of the friends that came on my first trip to tel aviv along with Dana, Andrea, Zach, and of course Shiri. Cody is super cool and hilarious and is the best person to sightsee with because everything becomes suddenly funny.
ANYWAYS Thanks for keeping up with my blog! I will probably post again after my 1st day of class on Monday!
