Day Three of the Strike
Too exhausted to blog in a manner deemed sufficient for my readership. Must crawl into bed and lie there with tongue sticking out to signify exhaustion. Full body pain.

Day 2 of the Strike
Where do I start? I guess from the beginning. I crawled out of bed to find out that even though school started two hours later, I only had “an hour grace period” to be at work. Good thing I left home at 9:19 and I had to be at work before 10:19 to make the… Continue reading Day 2 of the Strike
Awe of G-d or G-d is awesome…
I am dropping my Hebrew II class. I can’t stand it. It’s so boring. I am going to have to study on my own and try to learn along the way but I definitely cannot continue. Maybe I can pick up the same class next “session” but I feel like I’m too tired to learn… Continue reading Awe of G-d or G-d is awesome…

Hunger Pains and Sniffles
IHOP is not kosher. NOT kosher. Sniffle.
ET Phone Home!
Okay, not ET but Igor (yay!) called from Machon Shlomo in Jerusalem to discuss the prospect of flying over for an interview with the Fellows program. That’s how I got started teaching and I’m already set to finish my MS in Secondary Education in May of 2006! Anyway, Igor’s call automatically made me think about… Continue reading ET Phone Home!
So you want to be Jewish?
My principal threw a fit because I took off the first two days of Sukkot to observe them. She said that because I was “only studying Judaism” and not “entirely Jewish,” she felt that it was utterly ridiculous to take the days off. She said that she’s “pretty sure” that Jews don’t have restrictions for… Continue reading So you want to be Jewish?
Blast from the Past
Check out what I USED to do part-time before teaching:My Movie Review! This weekend was quite a spectacle. It all started because I had massive back pain (which is now just left-hand pain which will make me stop typing soon!). Anyway, instead of crashing with the fab Devora, I stuck to KJ and its peeps… Continue reading Blast from the Past
Fasting, Back Pain and Rain or How I Barely Survived Yom Kippur
Greetings from my couch where I am stationed thanks to the rain, the back pain and trying to fast on Yom Kippur. Trying, you say? Yea, I couldn’t hold out. Instead of fasting entirely, I had Cheerios for breakfast (gone stale, no less) and for lunch there were chips, soda and two donuts. Gross? Yes.… Continue reading Fasting, Back Pain and Rain or How I Barely Survived Yom Kippur
