On Saturday I woke up at like 2 and just enjoyed Shabbat. I hung out with friends and read. For dinner i went with rach to her family friends house (she has never met them, but rachel's family is friends with the mom's sister). They have 2 kids. One is 20, hes in the army and picked us up and the other one is a girl who is a year younger than us. The girl knew some of the brits on our program, because she worked at a camp with them! The mom is american and the dad is israeli, but he speaks english really well. Dinner was really nice and so good. For dessert rach and i helped the dad cut up/pick out pomegranate. it wasnt too hard! After talking and laughing, the dad drove us home. I was so tired and didnt get to bed too late. I woke up though 2 times, forcing myself out of bed to a toilet because i thought i was going to puke. Luckily i ended up not puking. When I woke up to go to volunteering i felt really sick, my throat hurt (not killing--like it was when i had strep). I forced myself out of bed though because it was my last sunday going to the school! Volunteering went pretty well, we all hung out with our friends and it was funny because we all talked about our nights and how we saw each other in town.
After volunteering I ate lunch and then went to my optional classes. In between them i took a 10 minute nap and then i went to my Holocaust Films teachers house (3 minute walk) for our last class. We had a lot of munchies and he got us pizza. yum! For our final movie (which we are doing a final review on for our final) was "The Devil's Arithmetic." I was so excited because i wanted to see that movie. It was decent. I then went back to the apartment, had an apartment meeting, and then went back to his house to watch the extra credit movie. There was only 4 of us who could make it. I freaked out after watching the first minute of the movie...it was "The Unborn." I started to walk out, but then decided that it will be good for me to see a scary movie and talk through all of the bad things about it. I had to cover my eyes for some parts and controlled my screaming pretty well. When i got home i went to bed soonish after.
wowzers jess. i just did a quick read of your last 10 days. sorry i was focused for a few days on my life! i hope you are feeling okay, i know it's not "posted" in your blog, but after skyping i thought i could mention it here. i like that you guys play games - my fantasy world on shabbat is to play games. i even looked for othello and couldn't find it. i may have to buy apples to apples...i keep hearing about it.
