Passover - The Celebration of No Eating
Time moves really slowly in Israel. It doesn't drag, but when I glance at the clock, only 4 minutes have passed, instead of my assumed 30. I like it. I enjoy the flow of time when it's not speeding forward, like it does in Canada.
I know I haven't written in about eternity, but I was out having TONS of fun. I mean, loads and loads of fun. So much in fact, it barely fits in my pocket (metaphorically speaking). I will not go into a whole lot of detail about this fun, but I will sum it up quickly by using code language and skipping all the parts that incriminate me in some way (there aren't any, but I think it makes me sound dangerous)
First, out with Dina and friends. There was a challenge, uncontrollable laughter and a walk past the devil's lair.
Next day, reading (yes, it WAS awesome), ring buying, old-people party, alcohol, *mumble, mumble, mumble*, awesomeness.
Next day, mini-reunion at Rakefet, and Michal was there, then left, we went for walk and met Shira, then Mira picked me up to go to her house.
Lots of gossiping, met her boyfriend (very nice guy), met her friends, went out (very late), ate at a place that still sells bread on Passover, then "sleep". We talked for 2 hours I think.
Yesterday, we went to the sea (yay) and it was really nice, because I look super hot in my new bathing suit, oh and also it was the sea, so obviously it was awesome. Then I went to grandma's to celebrate Passover.
Passover was so darn boring!!! I almost fell asleep and starved (in that order). I forgot how torturous the whole experience was until I was reminded last night. My grandpa decided to do his own version of the Seder and all I remember is that it involved a whole lot of talking and not enough drinking. Then we revolted and he got a bit upset, but that's a small price to pay for my sanity. Other than that it was a lovely evening.
I will go to Rehovot again today as soon as I finish like a gazillion errands in Ashdod.
Happy Passover
