Had a pretty exciting week here
Went to The Kotel alone on Sunday night. I recommend this to everyone. Go for an hour (after 10pm when it's not to crowded) with your phone off ALONE.
Went to go see Doctor Chief Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks speak at the Great Synogague on Tuesday night. Basically my whole school went so we were excised from classes. He spoke about Kiddush Hashem. He's amazing. Such a smart man! He really blew me away. I love how modern and down to earth he is. I bought one of his books after and got it signed
I was standing right behind him for a solid 10 minutes waiting to get it signed. I felt like I was meeting a celebrity. My British friends thinks it's hilarious because they see him all the time
So we had a Henna party on Wednesday
School hired a Teimani woman (yeah, fr Teiman) to come teach us about this party. Basically she taught us the history behind it and the culture. We learned the dances and got costumes
Afterwords we basically reenacted a henna party. 'Twas fun. I love learning about all of these different Jewish traditions that I've never heard of.
This morning (Friday) I went to Tel Aviv with some friends to run a 5k for Yachad. Time was 24:59- I Think it was my fastest.
Excited for a relaxing weekend phew
Peace out friends
