Landed!

Oh wow... so today, or i guess the past 2 days have been crazy. Like I might die tonight from exhaustion. I had a flight from salt lake to new york and then from new york to tel aviv. Getting dropped off by my parents for the first flight wasn't exactly what you would call enjoyable, it is going to be hard not to be home for anything this summer. And im not exactly in a place where I can just pick up and leave, im so far away from home, and so far away from any culture I know. The first plane ride wasn't a terrible 5 hours, but let me tell you.. the 11 1/2 hour flight was awful. Like holy! Who in their right mind expects me to sit still for 12 hours?! But it was fun for the last 3 hours because 2 of my new found friends and i were able to talk to a few Hasidic Jews for a long time just about everything. They were some of the nicest guys I have ever met and so funny. So that made the last 3 hours go by quick.

Driving from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem was an amazing experience. It was like we went from a modern city to an old school San Fransisco with houses built on a hillside so tall and just back in time. It is so gorgeous here. Like nothing anywhere else. The center is amazing. It is so huge and spacious and you can do anything here. Okay well i know im cutting this short but i only slept for about an hour and a half on both plane rides combined and its a 9 hour time difference so it is almost one o clock in the afternoon utah time and it is almost 10 at night here. oh and i have to wake up at 6, so im peacin out :)

Test!

This is part of my birthday this year! I dont have pictures of anything else, but the 4 of us went out to dinner at applebees before everyone surprised me with a party back at my place! So this is me, Paul, Mer, and Kevin!

2 Weeks!!! (again)

So this was the blog I was going to post a few days ago, then I changed it to tick kenzie off haha.

So I have two weeks from yesterday until I leave for Jerusalem! I just have to make it through this week of finals and then I get to go home and hang out with the family and get completely ready to go for a week before I leave. I'm getting really excited, but trying not to think about it too much, even though my best friend and roommate kenzie keeps talking about it haha. She is so funny and is really excited for me to go, so I love talking about it with her! But I have a meeting for it the day before I leave, so the 26th, which is when I figure out what time my plane takes off! Well, just thought I would write while I am studying for my finals, wish me luck!

2 Weeks!!!
