So, what's done is done. I spent a few delightful days in Delhi sweating in the quiet yet more beggar-infested northern corner of Delhi, preferring to avoid The Main Bazaar which Corey and I swept through 3 months before and could not tell if we were crying or sweating at times there. I apologize that this journal will go to disrepair as usual since i picked up some nice recycled paper journals in Dharamsala and can't help using them. day 1 I spent the first day in solid shock at finally leaving the pleasant mountain air so after the night long bus ride I just went and laid down in the first hotel I could argue a reasonable price to. Since I had my bank card stolen a week previous I was getting more than low ... read more

Well, I have moved out of my friend's apartment, and back to my cousins house for the next 2 weeks. Its nice to be back at my cousins, but honestly, I do miss the independence of being in the apartment, and the apartment itself. Escpecially the balcony! sitting out on the 6th floor balcony every night with a beautiful view of the city doesn't compare to sitting in the computer room in my cousins basement (which happens to be the bomb shelter). Oh well, from one place to another, as I am a traveling vagabond, haha. kinda. So, the last few days at the apartment, I did some more toring of the city. I went to 2 great old neighborhoods, Jaffa, and Neve Tzedek. First, a little historical background on them, to expain the rest of ... read more

WAR, what is it good for, absolutely nothing, sing it again! Its times like this that my brain overloads on the scary reality of our world and goes into "Boy Meets World" mode, that happy little disney fantasy show that i love so much. And i hear Corey and Tapanga singing that song about war.... yes i'm crazy, but only in a good way! (forgive me if u don't know which show or episode I'm talking about). I could launch into several political rages right now, but I'm not going to I promise. Tonight has been scary and frustrating while watching the news. The UN is trying to pass this ceasefire agreement, which Israel has seen and has said it will not agree to for many reasons, and the Israeli military (IDF) has started the expansion ... read more

I FINALLY saw Pirates of the Carribean 2!!! I know most of you probably saw it right when it came out like 3 weeks ago, but I am in a different country, and getting to the movies has been a challenge. More so because I kept waiting to find someone to go with me, and my cousins kept saying they would go tomorrow, but we would never go. But finally, we went! And also, I was totally extra hyped to see this movie because of going to the Premiere of the movie while I was in London. So, I took my cousin to the movie, Sari. She is about my parent's age. She wanted to see Lassie. So needless to say, she didn't enjoy Pirates too much. Oh well. I loved it. It was so much ... read more

So I'm back from the Alps. I didn't post anymore since last Wednesday because with the war going on in Israel it seemed pointless. In fact, the whole trek seemed pointless. However, I did write everything on my pocket PC. So If you're curious to read my stories, I'll post them soon, with the pictures.... read more
