Less than a week left in Israel, and less than two weeks until Boston. Oh, Boston. My city, my home, my heart. If you’ve read my first few posts on this blog, you know how I feel about my hometown. I dedicated the first ever post to my city after the bombing, and how proud […]
One week left in Israel as of today. It’s surreal. I feel like I’ve just gotten here, and I’m about to pack up and leave again. My emotions are a jumble; I can’t imagine leaving my friends and my love, but Boston is calling to me. Israel is my homeland, but Boston is my home. […]
As of today, I have three weeks left in Israel. I can’t decide if I’m more devastated to leave, or thrilled to come home. I find the promise of family, friends, holiday cheer, and my own car and bed to be very alluring, but I can’t imagine leaving the people I’ve come to love here […]
First week in Tel Aviv, first week at a new university… Obviously I have a lot to say. And I will say it. And you can feel free to read it, or not. But for the visual people who don’t want to peruse my ramblings, here’s a photo post about my first week in Tel […]
It’s my last week in Boston… oh my god. I am not even close to being packed, having started watching Parenthood yesterday. I now have a half-empty suitcase and a full-on obsession with the Braverman family. Anyway, here’s a photographic/link-o-graphic (my new made-up word) recap of my week… I can’t stand the music video for Miley […]
It’s September 1st, Labor Day weekend, so summer is over. I’m getting ready to move to Israel for rest of 2013, and I’m very excited about that. But there’s always something so heartbreaking about the end of summer. Summer is a romantic season, full of adventure, late nights, and beach days. Tomorrow, I’ll drive over […]
Tomorrow marks the end of our big Cape vacation. Sadly, we’re not just going back to reality, we’re also going into fall. I’ll either be spending my semester in Israel or at Harvard, so the idea of the new season is technically exciting. But i’m always so sad to end summer and leave the Cape. […]
I remember reading Tuck Everlasting in fifth grade, and wondering about the dog days. As a girl with a fish for a pet, I couldn’t imagine anything better than dog days, because who wouldn’t want to play with their very own puppy for days on end? Anyway, the quote goes like this: “The first week of […]
This weekend, two of my best girlfriends from Columbia came to visit me on the Cape. We swam, sunned, danced, drank, and laughed. Even though I can feel fall fast approaching, I’m definitely a summer gal, enjoying everything this season has to offer. What’s making me happy lately: My drink of choice: a root beer […]
