Well, I had a very good time last night. I went to a stand-up show by Uri Orbach called 'Karnaval birshut ha Torah', a show which was "strictly for religious people" because *quote* "there are some things that non-religious people just won't understand". And it's true. Like saying Shma and your mind wanders and you suddenly find yourself at the end ( Read more... ) -

A special update should be coming any day soon but in the meantime I'll share a little something from this week. And for anyone interested and brave enough to ask for elaboration, I assure you there is a whole story behind each and every one of these.
Things I learned on my four day hike up north:- When you take the 6:30 bus on Sunday morning to ( Read more... )

...And now the week's almost over. Only Shabbat left at midrasha. Although, as I've said before, that's not entirly accurate for me, what with the two weeks in the middle of the summer and more than a month next year. Still, there's a distinct feeling of 'end of year' -ness in the air. The past three nights have all had something to do with the ( Read more... ) -

Hiya, I just felt like I should drop a quick line, what with being gone for a week and all.
I just want to say that I had a really good Shabbat this past week (yes, even though I wasn't home). I met Batya's friends and they were just such cool, sweet, great people. And of course I had a great time with Batya herself. Admittedly, I wasn't expecting ( Read more... ) -

I have come to the rather late realization that myposts tend more to the factual side than to the emotional or philosophical side. Reading 'The Companion' has helped me get to this realization, because Naomi, im all her coolness, incorporated some of the more inspirational LJ entries into it, and none of the entries, so far, have been some of my ( Read more... ) -

I have noticed that lately (if you can call three posts within the space of three weeks 'lately') my posts have been purely of the squeeful, happified, Abi-esque type. Not that that's bad, just simply a-typical. And given that I do not always post when I'm feeling less than on top of the world, my posts tend to give a slightly slanted view of what ( Read more... ) -

I's haaaaaaaaappy once more! I'm told that my new bed came already, I got my hair cut by one of the girls in midrasha (not too drastically - I don't think you'd notice if I didn't tell you) and talking to someone on the phone makes me happy.
In other less interesting news; I went to Tel Aviv today for yet another army test, but this time it was for ( Read more... ) -

I think I had one of the best Yemei Zikaron LeChalalei Tzahal and Yamei HaAtzmaut this year. It was the first time I really felt that they were connected and really flowed into each other.
We started the Yom HaZikaron things on Sunday when an older couple came in and told about the two sons they had lost - one at 13 to cancer and one at 20 during ( Read more... )
