I'm sorry that you won't be able to visit your family in Jerusalem. That sucks. But I have to admit that I am happy that you will not die this summer.  Funny that you get back on the 25th, that is either the day I leave for Ohio or the day before. So I may leave just before you arrive- maybe I'll see you in the airport!  And yes, I am jealous that you are going to France. Have fun vith ze "American hate" zere. I'm sure it won't be bad. 



My day was...frustrating.  We did portraits of people in our class...with charcoal.  I did alright in this field, more or less, but then my teacher decided we were ready for (drum roll) SELF PORTRAITS !!!!

I think that was the worst drawing I have ever done in my life, (besides the ones from when I was like 5). It was a face, but it was certainly not mine. And for homework I have to do 7 more :)  After that I met Liv and went to San Rafael. I bought a dress at Knimble (the place where I get almost all of my clothes) and was very proud of it. We wandered around some more after shopping and went and ate lunch.  We were both broke afterwards and pondered multiple ways to get enough money to buy a "medium mocha cookie crumble Frappuccino with whipped cream" at Starbucks. One of these ways involved stealing the wall off of a bank...Then we had some expected encounters with homeless(?) people, and went home. I finished knitting my hideous scarf, (not for you) and watched Harry Potter until I got tired and thought about writing here. So that was my day.

Sorry about my complaints,

Also I briefly tried looking up synonyms for miss because it's getting repetitive for me. All I found was want, which when put in the phrase, I------You, well, sounds a little out of place. So I think we should make a contest out of trying to say I miss you in..different..ways.

Soo....um...Your presence is strongly lacking as I look about the...country.

Eugh. Sorry.
