Week 7: Scary Week!

Shalom Y'all!
I wanted to start off saying that this week has been scary no terrifying for me. There have been so many terrorist attacks. We never know when or where they would take place. I want everyone to know that what the press is saying isn't true. The Palestinians are attacking innocent people. Israel is doing all they can to protect their citizens. I feel as though the U.S. doesn't care about their citizens over here, otherwise news reports and what Obama  and Kerry are saying would be different. Please pray for Israel. The barriers that are put up now are working, but they won't last forever. If things get worse, I will go home because I cannot live in a world where I am terrified to go outside.

On another note, I did have a good beginning of the week. Enjoy what I did this week.

Saturday Scaturday: I went to get sushi with Mariel and Alona It was yummy! Then we met up with Nathan and headed to the beach! Soon David, Lia, Liat, and Shai all joined us. It was a blast! I got taken out by 3 waves in a row. But, it was still fun! That night, David and I got some Shawarma before we headed to Chanah's for Havdalah service. I got to hold the candle. Afterwards, we
talked for a little bit before I had to leave to head back to Jerusalem.

Miss. Sassypants Sunday: Work Day! Blah! I pretty much learned what I had to do on the daily. Then when I got home, I did laundry! Yay! Clean clothes! LOL! I started to feel sicker later that night: UH OH!

Mama oooooo It's Monday: I was officially sick AGAIN! I kept having horrible coughing fits and my sinuses were killing me. I took the day off to rest and see a doctor. The doctor informed me that I have a sinus infection. I hate sinus infections! I drank so much tea today. That night we had a safety meeting and I felt at the time that everything would be a okay.

Timmy Turner's Tuesday Tacos: Back at work. Then I went and got my medicine. I love it when medicine is free! Today was scary. Today, so many terror attacks happened. There was an attack on a bus. I was scared to go anywhere. I hate it here in Jerusalem. It's supposed to be a Holy city but it's a terrifying city. I couldn't get a cab home from the pharmacy so I took my usual bus. Everything seemed fine but I was so nervous. I don't like this at all.

What Would Gus Do Wednesday: Took the day off again because I was getting sicker. While lying in bed, I came to realize that my internship isn't for me, it isn't what I want to do. All I do all day is read articles. That isn't being productive. I asked my adviser if I can switch Internships. I just have to wait until tomorrow to talk to her. Today, a lady was stabbed in about the same spot that I was standing yesterday. This scares me. I could've been there. I want to get away. I don't like this. Why????

Think About It Thursday: Today was boring. I worked then came home and rested.

Le Freak Friday: Worked a little bit even though it was the weekend. Then I came home and slept all day since I had a bad headache. I am starting to feel better though. There haven't been that many terrorist attacks the last couple days. I am still very terrified though. I hope I can switch my internship to a place in Tel Aviv. I feel safer there.

That was my week. Come back next week where we find out where I'll be living and working.

XOXO
