Shabbat Shalom!

Quick update! This past weekend was the first Shabbat since I've been here. Although most Shabbats are "free weekends" where we are allowed to stay with family and friends, this was a "closed" Shabbat. We basically had services and a decent amount of free time. Today was our first Tiyul (trip)! We ventured out to Tel Gezer for half the day as a mini introduction to the whole Tiyul process. Every morning, we have continued our Core Classes (Israeli studies) and tomorrow we begin our General Studies (classes from home) in the afternoon. It's gonna be hard getting back into the mindset of AP Calc, APUSH, and Physics but it will be nice being practically one on one. On Tuesday, we have our first overnight Tiyul to Gilboa and Jerusalem. I have bonded a lot with my roommates and I'm getting to know a lot of other people, as well. Not too substantial of a post but I have been writing in my journal everyday so it's all good.

with love :)
