The truth is, I still use facebook. But since my hard drive failed, I've been doing less blogging, stalking, and alone boring chat time. I know I've let down anyone who reads my blog, but its a good thing.
The day after Independence day we threw a shabbat dinner at my place in Herzliya. 25 people came, including 13 people from our Jerusalem crew. It could've been perfect, but the combination of girl roommate's analness and the fact that I didn't tell her about it until 5 hours before didnt help my cause. The night started really awk, with jerusalem not bonding with IDC at all, but eventually it got better and ended with an awesome pop song session. Good stuff.
Funniest part of the night involved Jules, my best friend in the whole world who I love dearly. I've always thought of him as a good guy, a good friend. It turns out his first impression isn't as good.
Julie, Girl Roommate Liat's best friend, approached Jules in the middle of dinner. Immediately, in her Danish accent, she says "I do not like you." Jules was shocked, and asked why. Her response: "You are arrogant, bitch."
If you could hear the accent, you'd laugh your dick off (or breasts, for the ladies). He responded "In our country, we would say to that 'go fuck yourself.'" She laughed. He said "No, seriously, go fuck yourself." We were all very amused.
Since then, things have been pretty busy. Sir Sean Wallis has been in town on birthright, along with other cool peeps like Ariel and Haley. Been partying with them, showed them Jerusalem, where the amount of people we ran into almost made me look cool. It seemed like everyone I knew from Denver, WashU, Toronto, Camp, and Israel decided to hang out in a two block radius, and even if they had seen me the day before, acted like it was a special occasion. I felt super sweet. And I was wearing Jules' blazer. I've never worn a blazer really, even moreso a Courderoy one. I looked borderline metrosexual, sort of "peacock theory" (The Game reference anyone??) and it worked.
I frickin love Israel. I have been thinking of a way to give back to the country without joining army like our lame friends who'd rather "fight for a cause they believe in" than "sit around drinking in a frat basement joking about porn."
I think I've come up with a solution. I want to do what the Ivery kids at Western did. I want to plan a trip for the Olin B-School where Jews and non-Jews would come to Israel on a business oriented trip to learn about how the country engages in International Business amidst the turmoil of the middle east. It could be frickin sweet, people could get a lot out of it. Any interest? Holler at me.
Ya i know, my blogs used to be funnier and less serious and long and shit. Well, I actually do stuff now. Ive never been happier in my life, things can't get any better. But I am coming home soon, living in NY this summer starting June 21st. Get ready for me big city, I may have lost weight, but I'm still huge where it counts--- my drive to succeed, obvi. I'm gonna start paying attention in class, this teacher has lost everyone, and I will ask a question so he thinks that I actually care. I will let you know how it goes.
