Hi,

It’s been a crazy week. I usually have three to four days, and sometimes even a week to seat down and learn to each exam. But that week I had four exams in five days (I think the only reason I didn’t have another one was only because the week was over….:-). Well at least that was over, I still have two more exams, and still got some homework and projects I have to do. I did most of the exams, although I think I will have to do some of them again because I did do them as good as I wanted to.

I am on my way to Haifa now. It Sunday morning, I usually take a bus on Saturday night from Jerusalem to Haifa but I had to teach someone that lives in Jerusalem, and I don’t have more lessons so I took the morning bus. Sunday morning are horrible over here. Our week starts at Sunday, so all the soldiers and the students that went to a weekend vacation at home are going back to the army, that and the fact that it’s morning and everybody driving to their jobs making bad traffic problems. I looked from the window of the bus at the privets cars and I was thinking how do you make people use more public transportation or at least share a car on their way to work. Somehow those who navigate that country really think that building more roads will solve the traffic problems. The road we are on is only 5 years old, it was all clear when opened but it is all jammed now.

After having a test on Friday morning I drove to long day of eating (I sure you would have enjoyed it…:-). We were invited to to family events. One was my grandfather birthday party. And the second was dinner fo Nili (Nathan girlfriend) undrafting from the army! (after 3 years – she was an officer). A friend gave me ride to Tel Aviv, but I still had some time till the birthday party so I jumped to say hi to my aunt. She, of course sited me by the table and started to feed me. At that point I was still hungry because I didn’t have nothing from the morning. But since that point all I did was to eat. I don’t knew how but I managed to pull myself out of home to sit down with a friend on a glass of beer after all I have eaten.

Take Care
