Long time no posting

So sorry that I have left it such a long time with out posting anything. A whole month and a lot has happened. Most of it Hebrew work :)
My classes are going well, I am not sure that Modern Hebrew is going as well as it could be but there you go. My other classes are History of Zionism, Second temple History, Biblical History, Biblical Grammar, Bible and the Israel Seminar and I think that all of them are going okay. I as have two Teruma projects and so far I am enjoying both of them. We have also had the Yomim norim...the days of awe. I found these good but homesick making at the same time. However Yom Kippur is amazing in Jlem the streets are free from cars and full of people walking home after Kol Nidra. And of course childern on rollers and bikes.
Then before Succot the streets are full of people selling lulavim and etrogim...amazing!

Laura and I then went to England...I stayed with Mum and Dad and after one night Laura headed off to London...I went to the dentist (So yeah no tooth pain!) and went down to see Laura in London for Monday and little bit of Tuseday. We met up with two of my very best friends (Daisy and Mandy) and did some sightseeing, which is something that I wouldn't normally have done and it was nice to have the excuse so to do.
Then it was back home and off to synagogue of the evening of Simchas Torah...lots of dancing and singing. Before we fly back home to Israel...It was nice to be back in the UK and to get a chance to chatch up with at least some of my friends (I will have to met with more next time) and to speek with both my big sisters and to see my little Nephew and Rebecca. Am now back in the hussel and bussel of Jlem and the stuff of life (bills and buying household stuff) and work. But hey in a few hours its shobbos! I will try and post againg before too long but no promises.
