This past week has been very busy, and I almost forgot I had to write this blog post! I was also waiting for this to happen: I finished my second book in Hebrew yesterday, on Shabbos, when I read 103 pages on the same day! My Hebrew teacher said I could write a book report if I wanted to, and I think I will. The next book will be one I’ve never read in English before.
(And by the way, in my last post, I said I’d won second place, but neglected to mention that it was in my age division. [Another note 3/31: Actually, I still don’t know. So scratch that…or not. And also, I wrote this post on the 23, so the recital already happened.] I actually didn’t know that at the time, though. The concert’s on Tuesday! Wish me luck!)
I’m sorry my posts keep turning into ones about music, though that’s pretty much my life! Maybe I should write a blog about that instead; what do you think? If I get five votes, I may just do it.
In my Ivrit (Hebrew) class, we have been doing some things about Israeli culture, like learning songs and such, and has been very fun! I got a 91% on my last test!
HWOTW: בְּהַדרָגָה (b’hadraga), or gradually (I didn’t know that one; I just looked it up) and, just for giggles (as my math teacher always says), לְהַבִּיט (l’habit), or to look. It’s used surprisingly more often than you hear it in Ivrit class!
P.S.: How many of you noticed the link to this post before I mentioned it?
I vote for a music blog, maybe you can add some hebrew vocab too. :D
1 vote!
Great, thanks, everyone! I might combine the two blogs, though, because while I have a lot to say about aliyah, the amount of things that are happening are sort of coming in a trickle, though I still do have things to say.
By the way, what kind of music do you think I should write about? Instruments, music, how to read music, or something like that?
I like it when you talk about getting ready to move to Israel, and how you prepare and stuff, but I guess a music blog will be great too. Just can you sometimes put a little bit of either Hebrew vocabulary or facts about Israel on the bottom? I really like that about your posts.
I also think you should write about everything, because I have no idea how to play an instrument or even how to read music.
So, I vote for the music blog!!
Great, only two votes left and I’ll do it!
Thanks, Sarit, I’ll keep that in mind!
i know your not posting now but if you start posting i say a music blog.
