Israel and Study

There have been no kiddies here Thursday and Friday which apparently is a rare occurrence, so all the staff are very excited (they get time to work and have meetings), but it doesn't give me much to do. I'm supposed to be learning the material, but I can only read through so many dry textbooks for so many hours. The nice thing is that the weather is a little nicer (probably in the mid-to-high 60s), so I can go study outside.

On a happy note, I got accepted to the Israel Birthright program. Em (my sister) and I will be going to Israel on a free 10 day trip from June 6th-June 18th (the travel days aren't included in the 10). Since I didn't get the research internship at Crow Canyon and I currently don't have anything concrete keeping me in the US, I'm going to try and extend my trip after the original 10 days. I want to travel a little bit and I am considering working on a Kibbutz. Does anyone have any contacts in the East so if I go traveling?

This was just a short posting since there isn't much new to report right now. I hope all is well with everyone else.
