So I spent my first Rosh Hashannah (Jewish new year) in Israel this past week. I went up north (well actually its the center of Israel but from here, the south, central is north) to Even Yehudah and spent the chag with my family.
My sister is also in Israel now so she came, too. We spent Wed- Saturday at my cousins house eating and sleeping and eating and sleeping. Now that I'm back on the kibbutz I'm so used to just sleeping that waking up for ulpan is posing a big(ger) problem (than usual) !
All the girls in my garin are getting our manilas today. Manilias are pretty much all the jobs that we're being offered to do in the army. I'm really nervous to open mine because my kaba (iq score) is low because they gave me the damn test in Hebrew. So I'm fully expecting shitty jobs like being a secretary.
Which is not why I came to Israel. I'm nervous, and pishy.
Good luck with your "manila". I love you and support you in all of it!
