Thursday(11) was my last day of volunteering! Some of the kids made us thank you cards, and the english teachers want to get together with us for a goodbye thing on tuesday. On thursday night we had a valentines day party, it was ok I suppose. Like all our other parties.
Friday I went to Tel Aviv with Elana, she's leaving in a week so she wanted to get gifts and whatnot for family. Friday night I went to Bar's house for dinner, and realized I lost my wallet( Don't worry mom, I cancelled my credit card and let my bank know. I also still have my passport. I don't keep it in my wallet.)
Saturday...well...I'm doing this. I have a phone date with my long lost brother tonight, and I'm gonna try to call my bank and see what I can do about getting money over here

Tuesday I worked at school, then cleaned the floors, then went to Bar's house
Today I did absolutely nothing, except watch charmed and eat schwarma with Bar. Then I went to tutor. Now I'm planning to watch TV, and go to bed.

feb 3-7
Hey guys, so I kept kinda forgetting to write... but no I am not dead.
On wednessday I tutored for an hour and a half. Thats all, since I had no work
On thursday I DID have work...school...Where I lost my voice. Either because it was gonna happen anyways, or from yelling at kids all day
On friday I did basically nothing, until around 5 when Bar came back from Be'er Sheva and we went back to his place
Saturday I did some stuff I've been putting off for too long... such as finally set up my macewan account so I can check on my application, change my contacts in my gmail so they actually have the right email addresses, and update my pictures on shutterfly. I didn't , however, write a blog, which apparently led some people to believe I was either dead or deathly ill.
Sunday(today) I don't work anymore, so I am sitting on the computer at Bar's house. I was aimlessly surfing the net, when I decided to let everyone at home know I am, infact, alive and kicking.
Fyi:
-My voice is still half gone, but I feel alot better- I went to the docter and she said it was just a cold anyways
-Apparently I suck at judging how much food I need...even though I've been doing this for the better part of 6 years
-My 'student'(tutoring) has 2 tests tomorrow...wish her(and me) luck

Monday I went to school and had 1 group. The kids went to a play at 11. Then I went to daycare, and got sent home to drink tea and sleep. So I did
Today I wasn't feelin g much better, so I went to the doctor. She, of course, didn't speak english, so I spent an extra 10 minutes trying to explain I HAVE a cold, I'm not cold. Needless to say it was a fun filled morning. I also met an aspiring english teacher who offered to pay me to help her with converasational english. Yay for being a native english speaker in a foreign country.
Well I went home, I took a cold pill (courtesy of morfiks hebrew english translater) and slept for a bit. Then I went over to Avi's house (aspiring teacher) and talked with her and her son for an hour, and finally made some money.
Now I think the cold pill is wearing off, I feel less than 100% again, so I think I'm gonna go drink some soup( yes I mean drink...it's cup of soup:)) and watch tv, or read, or play שש בש (backgammon) or do somthing else not to active, and hopefully I'll be better by tomorrow.
Btw: Evangelical christians are fricken INSANE!!!(and no, not in a good way. )

Thursday night and friday I stayed in bed...wasn't feeling top notch
Saturday I went to Richon and hung out with Omri there for a while
Today(sunday) I went to azriali mall with Elana
Today there are 3 weeks left on our program. I'm leaving Israel 2 weeks later. I'm exited to see all my friends and family, but I will miss Israel. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, 5 weeks is quite a while for a vacation. I think I've done most of what I wanted to do here. Some things even two or 3 times.
