Hey everyone. Most of you won't remember me. I was very active for like 2 weeks around 6 months ago, then I started leaving the computer for long times to explore places. Soon, I found myself on an airplane, and then I was, wierdly, in Israel, where I picked up minute amounts of Ivrit, learnt to read Hebrew, and had many religious experiences.
Unfortunately, I have forgotten a few of you while I was gone. To be honest, the few I remember include:
Divash, 'coz she was knowledgable and sweet (like honey)
darkphoenix1247, 'coz she owns the place
Dis Dominu, 'coz his name was in Latin and I'm studying it.
And LordNeuf, 'coz he's cool lol.
Anyone else, please remind me and help me get back up to date.
I promise I'll be more active from now on...

Cal: I'm Liberal, and I'm British, so no help there matey. Sorry.
darkphoenix1247: A little cooler than expected. It was only 100*F lol. Everyone is so chilled out... I wish it was like that in Europe. Before you ask, I did everything. Masada, Dead Sea, Ceasarea, live on a kibbutz, live in Jerusalem, visit the Tombs in Hevron, visit the Wailing Wall, sneak over into West Bank for a laugh, eat hummus, falafel and shawarma, visit Tel Aviv, hang out with the Bedwin (spelling?) tribe. It was awesome and deeply siritual, apart from Tel Aviv, the food and the sneaking into an entirely Palestinian area wearing a kippah. That last bit was actually scary, and I exhausted my Arabic after saying Salaam. lol.
I only got back a few weeks ago and realized I hadn't been on my Gaia for a while so I just thought I'd say hi. Do ya still remember me?

Behatzlacha-S Thanks. Is everyone having a nice summer? Relatively speaking, yes. This summer has been calm and uneventful.

I'm glad someone's calm. I have well over 2o friends that want to meet up with me now I'm back, which is damn well near impossible and hurtsmy pockets. Added to that, I have 2 writing commissions and a computer game to finish. And the deadline is September. It's gonna be a hectic month.

Seriously? I never knew American schools were so cruel. I knew they were pretty awful, but come on. No offense, but the genuine world view is that the American Edation system is so bad it is actually dumbing down pupils that excel.

And don't get me started about Helicopter Parents.

My school is insanely academically rigorous, though.
