I'm back from my Pilgrimage to the Holy Land! j/k During this time of year, Israel is full of Jewish-American students, and Nigerian Pilgrims. Wherever we went, the Nigerians were right behind (or sometimes in front) of us. They were at our hotel on the Kineret (Sea of Galilee), then at the Dead Sea (where they enjoyed taking pictures of American girls swimming/floating), and they were at Yad Vashem (Holocaust Memorial), not to mention at the Kotel (Western Wall) on Shabbos morning.

I've renewed my committment to Shabbos. I'm going to start with the smaller things this time, and hopefully once I have those conquered, I can build on them. So I think I'm going to really try to light Shabbos candles every friday night and make a Kiddush with my new beautiful glass Kiddush cup that I got in Jerusalem. And I'm also going to try and make Havdallah on Saturday evenings using the new Havdallah candle I got in Tzfat from the Safed Candle Co, and of course, using my new Kiddush cup. hehe.

I'm moving this weekend! Getting out of my Ghetto depressing apartment and moving in with Katie in tower 2. It's a much better apartment and better room (eventhough it's not the one I originally wanted). It'll still be a very big step up.

There's too much floating through my head right now to get a thorough post (which would be way too long anyways), so I'll just write random snippets over the next few days.

Happy belated birthday to everyone who's birthdays I missed. And good luck with new semesters and all that!

Ralph Lauren. A hopeless romantic, you love love.
You are a free-spirit, who paints and explores
nature in her freetime. Ever so girly, you like
flowery things that capture the innocense you
project. Often a bit Bohemian, your style is
usually relaxed and comfortable. Guys adore
your cuter-than-life-itself nature and free-
love philosophy.
