So I am back home for the last time this summer. I love TY. I just do. I love living in a bunk without counselors, I love biking alone from Aleph to Bet in the dark, I love meeting new kids without being responsible for them, I love being able to run in the rain and not get yelled out by the higher authority, I love being happy! It's incredible. I ( Read more... )

It is 1:58 on Wednesday morning and I am just about to go to sleep. Tonight was so akward. It just was. I always knew that the Schechter reunion would be weird but this was extreme. First of all, everyone was really nice and gave hugs and kisses left and right...that defiantly never happened when we were in school. Anyways, it was interesting to ( Read more... )

So Sarahs funeral was...well I dont know what it was...but it happened and the Shiva is over. I gave a eulogy and made everyone cry. Everyone that its except me. Im still really suprised that I havnt broken down yet. Maybe one boring night at camp, when nothing is happening and we are all searching for something to do, I will shed a tear and cause ( Read more... )

So I came home with Leah at 10pm after seeing Yoni's brilliant show and I ate something and went upstairs to get ready for bed.There was a phone call at 11pm when, my dad came upstairs and told me to get dressed. Sarah died. I feel really guilty because I have no feelings about it. I literally sat in a room with my mom, dad, the two nurses, leah ( Read more... )

I just came back from the Salute to Israel Parade - also known as my last YJ event as a member of the movement. It was amazing! I am so happy it went well because I feel alot better ending my YJ life with an amazing parade. I danced the entire time, knew all the words to all the songs they played, spoke to people I cared about and saw Helen! It was ( Read more... )

So yesterday I bought Sophie Solomon's CD "Poison Sweet Madeira" ran home and as soon as I stepped into my house, it started to pour! Second time this week. So I put the CD in the first floor entertainment system, blasted the volume and danced around my house. I was home alone, during a major storm, dancing to my new favorite CD. After dancing for ( Read more... )

I carried my umbrella with me all day just to step inside my house and it starts to rain. No it starts to thunderstorm. As I sit in my room, in the dark, listening to Myk's CD "Saint Dirt Elementary" (which is categorized as Jazz but sounds like carnival music) I see huge flashes of lighting followed almost immediantly by a booming crash of THUNDER ( Read more... )

Yesterday was ridiculous. I went to school with my heavy bag for Boston, carried it around with me till I left, ran to 49th $ 5th Ave to pick up my drugs from Daddy, then rushed to Penn Station for my 2pm train, only to find out it was running 45 minutes late... we left the station at 3:30. I sat in front of two of the most annoying girls I ever ( Read more... )
