All is well with me. Although as per-normal I am tired and stressed. I have, however, had a piece published in Jewish News.
Here is the link
Anyway. I am off shortly to do a Song of Songs themed Kabbalat Shabbat Service down in KLS. I have taken an Advil in the hopes of clearing a bit of my headache before I get there.
Shabbat Shalom.

Passover, Emily's Birthday and the Continuing 4th year.
So how I always forget how hard the second semester is, even in a year when it is not overloaded with classes. It seems to drag on and on and on. At the moment I am back home in Stoke because its Passover, or will be the 1st night Sader is tonight. But the semester did go right up till the end. In fact we still have a week of classes left after the Peasch holidays. Plus some catch-up classes. Fortunately the assessments this semester are relatively light. I have a fairly major essay for Rabbinic Texts, a major presentation of Megilot, a presentation (and I think a report) for spirituality and finally a report for Tikkun Olam.
Then there are both of Biennials to attended, one for LJ and one for the MRJ. Kol Bo in the summer and the LBC Day of Celebration and finally Ordination. And then my Fourth Year is over. It somehow seems like a lot and like a little simultaneously. And i have as always taken things for limmud, which somehow I also always manage to forget how much work they will actually be. Although I am sure I will enjoy them as well.
As busy as the year has been I have managed to see a few friends. Matthew and others and last week it was Emily's birthday, which is always a lot of fun.
My extra reading lesson continue, and I am pretty sure that they are making a difference which is great. I am also continuing to meet and train with my personal trainer and I am sure this is making a difference. Last week was the first time that we have been able to properly train out of doors. Because the weather was finally nice enough.
Oh I almost forgot that one marker on the year that is still left is the College Dinner. Anyway this is just an update and really a very profound one at. Things are carrying on much as they have before. And as of today I have 447 days to go until ordination.
