This Fall I will be spending 4 months in Israel on NFTY-EIE and this is my blog about it to update everyone on what I am doing while I am there. Enjoy!

Mission Accomplished
This morning we woke up at 7 because we had a tiyul. It was to my dream destination (on this trip- other than Poland). AKA the Israel Museum, home of the Ahava sculpture. We learned about the 2nd temple period, the 4 sects of jews during the time, and the dead sea scrolls. And are continuing this lesson tomorrow and over the weekend when we go to the old city and Masada (so I wont have internet until Saturday night when we get back). While we were at the museum we obviously also had to go see the Ahava sculpture and take pictures with it (after 3 years of waiting since my bat-mitzvah when I got my necklace replica of it I finally got to see it up close! Mission Accomplished!). After our tiyul we went back to Tzuba for general studies. (I also had a 2-minute call with to mom to hear about her private jet experience- it made me jealous) After general studies, during my free period, I took a practice SAT2 U.S History test and did better than I did on my diagnostic! (WooHoo). Then I went to dinner, announcements, and SAT English prep. Then I had to go pack my bag for this weekend and attempt to get some homework done (and I skipped movie night to do so ☹) Now I am going to bed. I will post again when I get back.
