| | good riddance,boulevard of broken dreams,places i remember | ] | so this is my first friends only entry since i have been to israel, because i dont want my parents and grandparents to find out how much leaving israel is going to break my heart.
that being said here we go: so for the first time ever i am going to admit that ben is my boyfriend
for the first time in a long time i feel as though i truely care about someone. and they time that we have spent together really means something to me. and yes we have not been together for a long time. but the way our relationship is going to end is going to be the hardest thing i will ever have to do. getting on a plane and knowing that your relationship is ending not because you want it to and not because something is wrong with your relationship but just because you can not be that far away from each other. it kills me.i am going to have to get on a plane in ten days and maybe never see him again. with all my heart i hope that is not true but it could quiet possible be.i am going to have to leave him in the israel airport and just move on. i have not told him how this is going to kill me. he seemed equaly as upset when we were talking about it yesterday. but he brings out this side of me this happiness that i have never seen in myself. i smile so much and through him i have learned so much about myself. and it just kills me that this amazing experience i have had this once in a life time opportunity that i have had is coming to an end and i feel like i have taken so much of it for granted. i have not explored as much of this country as i should have. i have not explored as much about myself as i should have. but in so many ways i feel so complete. i love this country so much and i love who i am when i am here. i am missing him holding me already. i am sorry guys just get ready for alot of pictures and crying entries

so i dont know what is it but something in the air here is really cool.i know it is getting really close to passover stuff and i still get a kick out of all the passover matzos in the grocery store here i mean i know it should not be funny but i mean it kind of is. i miss home. i miss people from home i feel so disconnected right now. i mean i used to love going to school and seeing all the jewish kids eating matzo. and we were all different. but here if you are eating bread you are the weird kid. as happy as i am right now it is also lonely, i dont have a family here to have sedar with and i mean it is not till you are away from home till you realize how much you miss them. but i realized yesterday i am really having fun living here in jerusalem. and i mean i feel like i am really starting to open up and enjoy the people in my program here. yeah i know way to go rachel there are only two months left but you know i will carry this with me for forever. i really like it here and i am going to be so sad when it is over.

well alot has been going on here in jerusalem. i love it here. i mean just in israel. i think i am honestly having the most fun now. i mean yeah classes suck but i love the dorm room enviroment. i went on a hike in eilat (for those dont know eilat is the southern most point of israel.) It was so much fun. and next week during passover we are going to eilat again to be near egypt. i mean it is crazy that i can stand on one side of a mountain and look over and there is africa. i have lots of pictures i promise promise to post them later
but for now back to studying for mid terms |
|
|
| so i have a question? |
[Mar. 23rd, 2006|11:28 am] |
since living in israel my view on alot of things has changed. one of them being my view on the arab/ israeli conflict. and you can call me inhumane what ever but dont try to tell me i am wrong living here and being close enough to hear a "suicide bombing". spending ten days here and watching the news is not enough so my question is...
they have recently said that bird flu has been found in gaza. should i feel bad? |

so things here have been very hard lately. i have been sick alot. and although i love working at the safari it is at the point where it is just starting to not be fun any more. i wake up at five o'clock in the morning and i am soaking wet and cold by seven i am just rolling through things right now
so at the safari... the safari is in ramat gan it is a city right next to tel aviv. i work in the predator section so i work with the bears, tigers, leopards, lynx, puma, racoons, fenex, sand cat, coatim, honey badgers, alpaca, nandu, some animal with a t that is like half pig half elephant it is gross, a bird that is related to the ostridge, african wild dogs, hyennas, and israeli wolves.
it is really cool dexcept for i work with the carnivores so i deal with alot of dead animals and meat. i liek working there alot but i mean every thing in my life seems to kind of be on a weird bump right now
JESS I JUST GOT YOUR LETTER TONIGHT I WILL RIGHT YOU BACK AS SOON AS I CAN ( I FOUND A REALLY COOL POSTCARD I WROTE YOUR LETTER ON. I AM MAILING IT TO THE ADRESS THAT WAS ON YOUR LETTER TO ME.) It means so much to me that you wrote.
