Who needs World Swimming Championships when you have the Maccabiah Games to look forward to? On another note, it is unfortunate, but Oranim has canceled its Winter program this year. I went to Israel for my first time with Oranim and then went back a year later as a staff member. I hope that whatever problems they are having (most likely monetary) get fixed in time for next year’s Summer program. Right now, I am in the midst of Summer final exams and boxing up my room as I prepare to move into a new house for my last year of law school. I can’t believe that I have one more year left before I close the 7-year chapter of my life that involved Gainesville, FL. Time sure does fly. I also can’t believe I’m 24-years-old. I feel, look, and sometimes act, 18. Ahh…here are some articles I missed over the past week:
