Bright and early tomorrow morning I'll be on my way to Montreal to meet with Pripstein's. At this point I really don't know if I'm going to take it. There's a lot we have to discuss. But there is one thought that keeps lingering in my mind: Zach Braff, star of the endearingly funny show Scrubs, writer, director and actor of Garden State fame, and ( Read more... )

I made a decision months and months ago that I wasn't going back to camp this summer. Don't get me wrong I love Pinemere, anyone who knows me knows I'm a camp person, but I just didn't feel like it would be worth my while to go back.

Between the Kabbalah craze that has led celebs like Madonna and Britney to keep kosher and celebrate Jewish holidays and the intro of Hebrew and Yiddish words in to every day slang, and the countless popular TV shows with Jewish characters (hello OC) Jew-wannabes seem to be popping up ( Read more... )

I spent a good part of the afternoon in Pages, my favourite coffee house on campus, leisurely reading "Authenticity and Surreality: Bob Dylan, the New Left and the Counterculture" my assigned reading for my Art of Politics class. I couldn't help but contemplate how we have no real modern day Dylan equivalent. Throughout Dylan's experimentations ( Read more... )

I feel so lucky that everything is falling into place for me. A few months ago I went to training session run by the Multifaith Resource Team. During the program we discussed "The Golden Rule" aka "Do unto others what you would have done to you," and how many of the world's religions hold this belief in some form or another. In Islam, the ( Read more... )
