Wow!!!

That is the only thing I have to say about the last 24 hours. Traveling mostly went smoothly, but took FOREVER. I left my house at 5:30 AM EST on the 25th, and got here at around 9 AM Israeli time on the 26th. Crazy stuff, I can't even calculate that.

The dorms are pretty nasty--I'm never complaining about AU again. There are two double rooms and a bathroom and a kitchen. The necessaries are there but it will be an adjustment! So far I only have one roommate and I was half asleep when I met her, but she seems nice.

One thing I've noticed is that functioning without any knowledge of Hebrew is way harder than I thought it would be. I can't understand anything, and it's pretty harder to memorize letters that look like shapes. I didn't think I'd be saying this, but I can't wait for classes to start. I need to start learning some Hebrew immediately.

OK well I'm still pretty exhausted but I'll write again soon, and with pictures next time!
