Israeli Dance Video

So here's the video of the Israeli Dance that I performed at the fair! This is far from a professional videotape (hahahaha) so please excuse the girl dancing in front of the camera. Right now I have ten billion assignments to do because I missed three days of school, but after tomorrow I'll be on Spring Break so I will finally have time for some commenting and blog reading (that I miss very much)

So, without further ado:

CULTURAL FAIR

Okay so I believe I OWE you guys a legit post! So here goes:

Today was my school's cultural fair! Now I'm in International Club so I forfeit about 20 minutes-the entire period of my advisory prepping for this day! 

In the fair, I run the Israeli Booth as well as teach Israeli Dance. We performed 3 times, and although the first one wasn't so hot, the second two performances were great! I uploaded it onto Youtube but it hasn't finished processing yet--when it does, I'll post it!

My booth!

My Dancers :)

Henna!

I also went to the Ethnic Items Booth and bought a few things....a Mohawk necklace for my sister, a purse from India,  a Korean phone charm, and a Chinese Ornament! I also got a pretty sweet Henna Tat (no picture though)

Can I call him Moo-shu? :)

The rest of my birthday was pretty awesome! I got some great presents (which I'm sure I'll post soon) Alice in Wonderland was great, especially in 3D iMAX, I highly recommend it! Oh and we did lose power at night which sucked a little but we managed to have fun!

Anyways Passover starts tonight and I need a nap VERY badly!

Today is mah Birthday!

WOO FREAKIN WHOOO!

I finally get to take a break from my exhausting life and enjoy a few days! I mentioned that I'm taking a 2 and a half hour SAT class twice a week, plus home work from that, plus my regular work load= AHHHH.

Anyways, like I said, I'm 17 years old today! R rated movies yeahhh boiiii! I actually had a chem quarterly AND an APUSH test today which was a sort of horrible way to spend my day. I was actually supposed to go on a field trip to an art gallery (where my teacher submitted some of my work) but now I won't get a chance to see it, because I couldn't miss school.

But since I have no school tomorrow (for a teacher conference day), I'm celebrating my birthday by seeing Alice In Wonderland with a few friends, and then two of my closest friends are sleeping over soooo I'm uber excited!

I also just realized that I'm not going to be in any of my classes for a full week....Monday= our schools Cultural Fair (!!!), Tuesday and Wednesday= Passover. I'll be in class Thursday, and then it's April break so I'll have another week off from classes! YAY! Haha

Sooo um sorry nothing fancy, I'm actually in a rush, but I'll hopefully return from my hiatus on Sunday to catch up on blog reading.....

till then.....

AHHHHHH! I'm such a horrible blogger!! I feel like I've been MIA, somedays I'm so so busy that I don't even go on Blogger at all. However, it is Friday, and before I snap into work I wanna give some quick updates

So as you guys know I mentioned in passing that I was supposed to present a proposal to the Board of Ed on Tuesday. Um it went pretty well I guess. Unfortunately I was not able to use a podium so I had nothing to brace my shaking body on, so for the first part I was just clutching the mic with fear. I haven't watched it back yet, I'm too scared. My friend also prepared a speech and petition so he presented too. His speech was really really professional sounding and everything.  I did however get into the local paper--although my name was spelled wrong. But hey, I got my own paragraph, tiny as it may be. I don't have a copy at the moment though, I let my teacher borrow it so she could photocopy it.

Last night I took a practice SAT. Ugh it was excruciating. I was there for four hours! I got my scores just now. I am so relieved to be taking this course because I definitely want to raise them! Overall I got a 1990 scratch that, I can't read well, I got a 2020 out of 2400, which is okay, but I'm really aiming for a 2200 or 2250 by the time the course is over. That means more SAT and less blogger, unfortunately :(

I really do have so much more I'm itching to write but I seriously need to put my nose to the grindstone!

Laterrrrrr

Let me clear...my chest?

A list of different things I would like to say to different specific people, but never will:




1) I love you more than earff. Thanks for being such a great friend. My life would suck without you!
2) I've liked you for so long, but we never talk anymore. More than the fact that I miss seeing you, I miss your friendship. You would always ask me what was going on, or how stuff went for me. I wish I had told you before how much our friendship meant to me before we drifted apart. I really wish I could say this to your face.
3) I wish you would come over and talk to me once in a while so I don't always have to be the awkward one. 
4)If you want me in your life, make some room for me, cause I'm done trying.
5) I'm sorry I've been so weird and obnoxious around you lately. I swear I'll stop. Just give me another chance. Please?
6) You tell me that we're friends, but then you tell me that I'm annoying. Can you make up your fucking mind? I am so so done having fake friends.
7) You shouldn't string him along like that. A lot of girls would give their canine teeth to be with him, including me.
8) It's funny how when you're with your friends you're a complete asshole, but when we're alone you're really nice. I wish you would let your true colors shine through more often!
9) Thanks for being a good friend, and liking me no matter how horrible I am to you. I hope we never fight again.




I feel so much better that that's off my chest now ^-^


It's midnight.
I have an assignment/project due tomorrow
I'm halfway done
I have to wake up in 6 hours
And I have to give a speech to the board of ed tomorrow night...




AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Thank you icanread.tumblr.com

As soon as I get this new camera I want I'll get off my bum and start taking my own pics. Sound good? I sure think so!

Thank You Matisyahu

So er, my last post was very -_- depressingish. 

I had a very very stressful week, and this one ain't looking too much better. Neither is the next few months

On Tuesday apparently I'm giving a mini-speech/ presentation to my school's Board of Ed. I feel like throwing up just thinking about that. My speech is still yet to be written.

I'm also starting an SAT class on Thursday.

So my free time will be minimal

I've basically been doing homework all day.

Yes, my life is very interesting...

So my birthday is in...18 days.

And then I'll be missing three days of school

And then I'll be on April break

And then I'll make some college visits

And then I will dig myself in a hole and study for my AP exams and SAT for the rest of the month.

Anyways the purpose of this post is to share this really really inspirational song by Matisyahu. It's made me feel so much better. And he's Jewish just like me! Please give it a listen <3

Sometimes I lay
under the moon
and thank God I'm breathing
then I pray
don't take me soon
cause I am here for a reason
sometimes in my tears I drown
but I never let it get me down
so when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around

because
all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day 

it's not about
win or lose
we all lose
when they feed on the souls of the innocent
blood drenched pavement
keep on moving though the waters stay raging
in this maze you can lose your way (your way)
it might drive you crazy but don't let it faze you no way (no way)

sometimes in my tears I drown
but I never let it get me down
so when negativity surrounds
I know some day it'll all turn around

because
all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day

one day this all will change
treat people the same
stop with the violence
down with the hate
one day we'll all be free
and proud to be
under the same sun
singing songs of freedom like
one day 

all my life I've been waiting for
I've been praying for
for the people to say
that we don't wanna fight no more
they'll be no more wars
and our children will play
one day

 I know I haven't been "around" for the past week--I've been busy every second and I really apologize for not commenting and reading. I've been on a hiatus for the past week. And apparently all my comments from past posts have disappeared. Nice.

Normally I don't do this. And by this I mean dump on my readers.

 But:

I've just felt horrible for the entire week.

And still now.

I'm upset.

Stressed out.

TIRED.

and anemic again

Stressed out

and depressed

And I think I failed my chem test on Friday.

Yay.

and I feel sick to my stomach.

I feel like my head's going to explode from all of the pressure I'm under.

And I'm in one of those moods where I hate everybody.

I don't want to talk to anyone.

And I'm just really upset.

I'll be back to myself soon.

Just it might be a while.

Thank you weheartit
