It’s nearly two years since I made aliyah. There are a lot of things about the experience I’m over at this point. Some highlights of what I’m over:
– ‘Making aliyah’
– The intrigue of being a secular Israeli
– Being called by my Hebrew name
– Speaking English in the street
– Visiting the States
– Maps of Israel
– Philosophies of Zionism
– Conflict
– Conflict Resolution
Is that a downer? Not sure. I don’t feel down.

I’m not an olah or planning to be, but I can’t see why you wouldn’t want new olim to read this. It sounds like an encouraging summary of how well you’ve adjusted to being part of Israeli life and society. Kol Hakavod. If you really are over speaking English in the street, that’s even more impressive. Now what’s interesting is what you still you’re not yet over…. and what you feel really up about.
Thanks, man.
A few things I would add to my own list –
Marzipan Rogoluch
Walking Everywhere
Blogging
The News
The Politics
Which Supermarket really is cheaper
Bank Charges
I actually don’t understand the speaking english in the street part. You are over getting mad about it, or you dont do it anymore?
Neither… I’m over it being a big deal, being embarrassed to do it.
