7 Days
I've never "blogged" before. I feel incredibly egotistic to think that anyone would read my writing. That out of the way, I've heard it's easier than mass email. So, assuming you are one of my friends and want to keep in touch with me during the next several months while my internet access is limited, this should be ideal. If you don't, than you're probably ecstatic knowing that you won't be getting emails from me clogging up your system along with advertisements for viagra and pyramid schemes.I'm a week away, plus 3 hours, to stepping onto the ElAl plane. I've already got all my clothes laid out (usually I'm not done shopping until 7 hours before I leave, so this is truly incredible) and they are in neat little piles in my living room. Our living room has no furniture just because it would only get in the way during the Kohn kids many packings and unpackings and massive laundry extravaganzas.
I am not done with my grad school applications. They will get done, because I have to mail them before I go. It's not a question of if only of when and more importantly how. I sit in front of this computer and create blogs rather than write out my goals and achievements. I've narrowed it down to 8 schools, but I'm pretty sure it'll be 7 by the time I actually mail them. No two programs are the same, which is pretty clear evidence that I don't know what I want to do or how to get there.
I've talked to a few of the kids who will be on this program with me. Under all their talk of maybe aliyah and wanting experience and preparing for their futures, it is unspoken that we are all going on this trip to postpone whatever comes after the trip; grad school, jobs, a life not so unordinary. And also to meet an Israeli who just might help us to make the decision to stay much easier. I hate making decisions.
Good Night
