1st Week Back

Quick Updates:
We had a Jewish History Test yesterday and now we've started the modern state of Israel. 
We observed Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day) this week. Next week is Yom Hazikaron (Memorial Day) and Yom Haatzmuot (Independence Day). 
We had two full day tiyulim this week, both to Tel Aviv. If Jerusalem is the spiritual center of Israel and Judaism, than Tel Aviv is the secular center of Israel. Its really cool. I got cool sandals.
The SAT is soon and APs start soon. AH!
Its finally getting warmer. Israel has a quick transition for winter to summer (about one week.)
I didn't talk about my roommates last time. They are David, Josh, and Rob and we have the best room by far. 
I'm wearing tevas with socks right now. It looks really good. 
And here is an article that David, my Jewish history teacher, sent me. It was written by Reuven, another Jewish history teacher here, and its about Hebrew.
