• Bla (pt II)

    One of the hardest, deepest casualties of moving away from your close friends from your hometown is the speed and harshness with which you are forced to realize how they don’t feel so close to you anymore. Maybe it’s something about being in the same place when you’ve moved away and still remember everything how…

  • Dress is more.

    I found, what I guess is, my dream wedding dress in a magazine that a friend gave me. Then I found it again in another magazine. Then again in another.Then for fun, I walked into the largest Macy’s in the world yesterday and went straight to their bridal floor (the 8th, mind you). …And there,…

  • Star-5-bucks-a-cuppa-cawfee.

    My tall Mocha coffee from Starbucks this morning was dedicated to all my Israeli friends who would kill to be in New York City right now.

  • Homesickness.

    I don’t know if it’s because today is one of those days where I have been having trouble coordinating myself for the day ahead (my jeans need washing, I’m wearing open-back suede shoes in slushy snow, I’m behind in work, my pen leaked all over my right hand and I see a potential clash with…

  • 3 Blas.

    O.K., now 3 sucky things about living far, far away: 1. You aren’t around to help your friends work out their problems. 2. You aren’t around to celebrate with your friends. 3. You have to plan your wedding by yourself without your mom or closest friends.

  • Home & away.

    My homes… from sea to shining sea… Israel New York

  • Roooar.

    So this is a tuition well-spent (Note: I’m not spending any). Being back in New York is also – surprise! – making me realize something else: how much this conflict management course has changed the way I’m open, relating, speaking… it’s probably a mix of that and living in Israel in general… that I just…

  • Desserts before dinner?!

    Courtesy of… God. I keep wondering what I did to deserve for all of the events of the last year and a half to come so relatively easy to me, but it keeps ammounting that I haven’t done anything prior to deserve it. So I feel I’m supposed to be a good person from now…

  • Change for a dollar?

    I should have seen it coming, and I guess I was mislead by coming back here in the summer and everything seemingly the same in New York. It seems, though, that nothing escapes it – change for a dollar. Or, change for The Dollar. Maybe it’s them that are different: working hard, working too hard…

    February 12, 2006 Lives Suddenly, the Same Thing By ETGAR KERET “I just hate terrorist attacks,” the thin nurse says to the older one. “Want some gum?” The older one takes a piece and nods. “What can you do?” she says. “I hate emergencies, too.” “It’s not the emergencies,” the thin one insists. “I have…

  • Neo-Zionism.

    Brought to you by Kumah.org: Neo-Zionism I have comments, but I’ll keep them to myself. Kumah to me is complex. I know people involved heavily, and at the same time, I know people involved heavily. I know what they are thinking. I get the message. Although, I do have to say: using Keanu Reeves as…
