Like a chicken without a head...

Or at least that is what I am feeling like lately. To my great happiness, Mariele came into town on Wednesday. We went out to dinner at a lovely little restaurant, called Timol Shimshom. On Thursday morning, I sent her down to Eilat - to sit on the beach - and to Petra in Jordan - to go see all of the beautiful archeological remains that are there (see my entry about Petra over the summer for pictures of Petra, etc.). I am jealous of her trip, because it should be so much fun, and I hope that she enjoys herself. As for me, I had a Hebrew test on Thursday, plus make up classes, plus volunteering, plus the beginning of my weekend with my NFTY course. I will be in the course for the rest of the weekend, from breakfast to past dinner. Then, on Sunday, I have a huge midterm, and on Monday I am leading my first worship service since I was, like, 18. I am really nervous for it... but I am hoping that it goes well.

Needless to say, things are busy and I am spending a lot of time studying.
Hope all are doing well!
