of the sands and the cliffs: October 2008
http://sandsandcliffs.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Of the sands and the cliffs. A year in jerusalem. Friday, October 31, 2008. This is Halloween, Halloween, Halloween. Well, Halloween in Jerusalem is pretty much like any other night, except when you're at HUC! The planning process was fairly easy; we sent out some e-mails, came up with a theme (Halloween! Let's compare again) process, but strangely fulfilling. We also made handmade decorations - ghosts, pumpkins, a Happy Halloween sign, and Ari carved a Jack O'Lantern out of a melon. All in all, it was a...

of the sands and the cliffs: June 2009
http://sandsandcliffs.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Of the sands and the cliffs. A year in jerusalem. Saturday, June 20, 2009. Re-entry: top hat stories. It’s really anecdotes, stories, funny moments, that really embody the experience. But telling them is often difficult. I’m well aware of the irony that by explaining what a top hat story is, I have to tell a top hat story.). Monday, June 15, 2009. Re-entry: rip van winkling. Tuesday, June 9, 2009. And in the end, there's a beginning. As I was furiously, madly packing tonight (this morning? I've reached a...

Of the sands and the cliffs. A year in jerusalem. Monday, August 25, 2008. In what might be the last post before my post-Ulpan pre-Semester break (during which I'll be backpacking for 7 days in the Golan and Galilee), I'm not sure really what to post, because there hasn't been anything amazingly noteworthy, just a series of very cool events. So, here goes. Lisa, Jim, Jason. Ari, Jaclyn, Lisa, Jim. I think there was some confusion about where people should have been looking for this picture.). Tomorrow (T...

http://sandsandcliffs.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Of the sands and the cliffs. A year in jerusalem. Wednesday, February 25, 2009. In order to enjoy one of the most important American traditions, Oscar Night – my equivalent of the Super Bowl – a lot of planning needed to occur. There’s an episode of How I Met Your Mother. I thought the ceremony itself was good; Hugh Jackman did a fine job. I was mostly pleased with the winners – I’ve only seen very few of the nominated films; Slumdog. Saturday, February 21, 2009. This past week, though, things have been ...

Of the sands and the cliffs. A year in jerusalem. Sunday, May 31, 2009. Pampering ourselves in phnom penh. Angkor Wat is truly spectacular. I'd learned about it in my archeology of cities course my 4th year at UCLA, but not really in great depth. But it's amazing! Angkor Wat is really a misnomer, it's really the temples and cities, spread out over many kilometers, of Angkor - Angkor Wat is the biggest and most central Temple; it's the biggest religious building in the world. How about that, huh? Say hell...

Allie's International Medical School Adventure: July 2008
http://shapsmd.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 27, 2008. In preparing for my great adventure came a great deal of preparation. One very important part of this preparation included packing, and as people who know me and the way I pack for school or vacation know that I like to pack A LOT. I was faced with a large problem to which the solution seemed impossible. I decided to used Super Saver bags shown below:. Now that the packing is done I am getting really excited and ready to leave. I am planning on updating this blog as often as I ...

Allie's International Medical School Adventure: Medical students NOT in sweat pants
http://shapsmd.blogspot.com/2008/11/medical-students-not-in-sweat-pants.html
Sunday, November 16, 2008. Medical students NOT in sweat pants. After the slide show there was dancing in which a few of our professors actually made it to the dance floor and I'm sure all the pictures are wandering around the web by now. Last weekend I made it down to the coast for some authentic Fish and Chips and it was amazing! I will definitely go back there again! Good luck on finals! November 20, 2008 at 1:34 AM.

A Buckeye in Israel: Passover!
http://buckeyeinisrael.blogspot.com/2009/04/passover.html
A Buckeye in Israel. Follow me through my first year of rabbinical school at HUC in Jerusalem! Monday, April 27, 2009. For those of you counting, this is the second of the three P's! After a VERY grueling plane ride, Mom and Vicki arrived at the airport in Tel Aviv in the middle of the night. I was there to greet them because one of my professor's wives was on that very same flight, my professor found out I was waiting for my mom, and offered to take me to the airport and pick up the whole crew! After an...

A Buckeye in Israel. Follow me through my first year of rabbinical school at HUC in Jerusalem! Friday, November 7, 2008. The Four Month Mark. Trying to Be American in Israel! These last three weeks since I returned from Istanbul have certainly been busy and exciting! We are finally into the swing of things at school, and believe me, the work has definitely picked up! Caves at Qumran where many of the scrolls were found. The view from atop Mt. Masada. It's been a great adventure so far, but I'm definitely...
