Shalom!
So today was the first day of ulpan, and I'm happy to say that it was actually a great day. I started of the day by buying myself a steady internet connection which may have been a little expensive but will totally be worth because the internet connection that i am stealing off of now kinda sucks. Then we walked to school, stopping, of course, for coffee on the way. I began the day in ulpan bet 3, which I figured would be a good fit if not maybe a little easy, well it turned out to be way too easy, so I got moved up to level gimmel (Jason, look how smart I am at hebrew!), which is a little difficult for me but i'm glad because i want a challenge so that I will learn alot more. I think i have some homework fo that but I missed most of the class due to the slowness of changing levels in the middle of the day. I also got to see alot of people today that I hadn't seen since the group flight and it was nice to reconnect and begin to make real friendships, everyone here so far seems to be such sweethearts and i really like everyone. Soon, I am going out to dinner with some kids who go to the Columbia/JTS program, they are really nice plus all of us can shabbat together which is great.
Oh, so if you didn't get the memo (J/K) I switched rooms yesterday because I could not stand my disgusting french roommates. So now I am living in a suite with 4 Israelis. Last night, I met all four of them. 2 boys and 2 girls. The girls are Rotem and Rachel and they are best friends, they are both really really over the top nice to me. they are very eccentric, in a good way and want to include me with everything tat they do. The boys are Eshai and Eli, Eshai speaks great english and is just a nice guy all around and Eli is just kind of crazy but in a very funny and nice way. The suite here is so clean and they share everything which is great for me because then I can learn to cook Israeli food and all that good stuff.
Ok I have get ready to go out to dinner. Please email me or call, I would love to talk,
Miss you all!!
