Quick Hits

It has come to my attention that there is some information I may have assumed everyone knew regarding my summer.
I am in Israel for the next three and a half months. Next week I begin classes in Jerusalem at Hebrew University. It is not an ulpan course (an intensive language program)--instead I am participating in the Summer Institute for Israel Studies, which is a fancy way of saying I am learning about the history, culture, and future of Israel. I will be living on campus during the month long program.

After that I am working in the Stagerim Program (a professional internship program) until the end of September. I am still getting details but I will probably be living outside Tel Aviv working at Bank Leumi doing international business stuff. We shall see. For those two and some months I will be living outside (or in) Tel Aviv.

I have a cellphone here. I would love to hear from you, even if it's just a quick hello.
From the USA, dial 011-972-52-386-8142
If you are also in Israel, just dial 052-386-8142... but you probably already could have figured that out!

Lastly, I tried to change the name of the blog when I started it, but I couldn't figure out how. SO, due to the number of responses requesting a change in the title, I would love to have some ideas.... and instructions on how to go about changing it! Please feel free to comment or email :-D

Hope you all are doing well, I will update, as promised, about New York soon!
