Its currently 12:26 at night, and I am completely wiped. My sleep schedule is so distorted, I hope I'll be able asleep within the next half hour. I'm happy to report my apartment has a computer with internet, making this blog very easy to access ( well not very easy, some of the links are in Hebrew). Everything is going better then I could have ever imagined. I love my apartment and everybody in it. I share it with four other poeple on the program as well as two madrichim (counselours) who are both my age. They're all awesome people, and we have gotten along so well so quickly, our optimism for the upcoming three months is sky high. We have an amazing view of Ayalon, the main street in Bat Yam and most of Israel. Tonight we walked around Bat Yam, grabbed a beer and sat by the beach shore. It was a perfect ending to a hectic day. The plane rides to New York and Israel totalled 18 hours, with a hefty layover inbetween. I slept intermittently on both, but overall they weren't so bad. Upon arriving in New York at the International JFK airport I met up with so many old friends from camp that I was happy to see. It had been three years since we had seen eachother, and we picked up right where we had left off. I'm hoping I get to see everyone and stay in touch. We received our Israeli phones, but I have no way of getting in contact with anyone and have no clue which cities they're staying in. Facebook may just save the day.
I must go to bed, adventures await in the morning

I'm so glad everything is working out so well - and that they didn't give you a difficult time for not having an Israeli passport... what a relief ! I have to go now, Rosie is yelling at me. Chava aka Mom
