Are We There Yet?

I’m slowly turning into Grandma Death from Donnie Darko. I’m waiting to hear not only about my acceptance status, but also about whether or not I’m exempt from certain summer classes. Which is something I need to know ASAP, so I can register slash pay. This means daily checking of my mailbox.
Luckily [...]

Not in Never Never Land

A week or two ago, I had a very unusual feeling. I had this distinct moment where I actually felt like an adult.
I had a friend over for dinner. I’ve made dinner before, but this was different. Usually I have a friend over, we decide we’re hungry, and we whip [...]

Mysedumication

I really, really, really don’t like when sexual sadists/masochists are portrayed as heartless individuals, incapable of love. Of course there are those who have no soul, but saying that all those involved in BDSM is like saying all gay guys have a lisp, or all Asians are smart, or Jews are cheap (have you [...]

SO COOL!

I want one!

Hey There, It’s Yogi Bear!

So, we all recall my little foray into yoga. It’s wonderful. Unfortunately, due to a brief illness and a persistent state of po’-dom, I haven’t been able to make it to the studio lately. And by lately I mean a few months.
Anyway, so I’ve decided that I’ve had enough of [...]

Hoping to make varsity

So, as we all know, I’m trying to get into medical school. I was “invited” to be interviewed (in other words – pay a million shekels to be painfully tortured). Basically, it was two days of being pried open like an oyster.
Day one was a questionnaire. Two hours of writing about yourself, [...]

It’s Been a While

I’m sorry I’ve been MIA.  Lately I’ve been feeling socially lazy.  I believe I’m cocooning.  Hopefully I’ll come out a beautiful butterfly.  But I’m slightly worried that I’ll eat myself into a pants-size three sizes up, and neglect my friends.  Mostly, I’m too lazy to initiate anything.
I was supposed to go out tonight.  There’s a [...]

#^&$(^&(#(!>@(!!

Whyyyyyyyyy do I have to pay an extra 170 NIS to add a second major???  I’ve already paid 430 NIS so that I can apply to the damn school in the first place!  Is it really that big of a deal?  Apparently, it is!  This country is slowly sucking out any love I’ve ever had [...]

Hello? Hello?

Introduced the madre and hermanita to my Savta impression.  Apparently, I’m spot on.
Loves it.

Get a clue

Seriously.  OK.  So two days ago I went to the mall (really, terribly exciting).  I walked over to the Central Bus Station, and waited for the proper sheirut to pull out of the lot.  There is generally a lot of jockeying back and forth into place until they settle on a spot that’s not to [...]
