I leave in 4 hours...

And it's driving me nuts. I've been so sick with anticipation that I can't even contemplate putting the final touches on my packing job. I think I'm gonna have the time of my life but I can't really be sure, and I don't have the best history with this group of people no matter how much I'd like to convince myself otherwise. Hell, I don't have the best history with integrating into groups of kids at all. I like to think I've gotten better at that and that people have grown and matured since I last knew them, in fact I'm almost sure of it. I just hope that they are willing to take another look at me and that I don't let myself be shaped by what they expect me to be.

Wish me luck folks. Call me to say goodbye before I leave tonight, I hope to have my phone with me and on until about midnight but you shouldn't count on me having it after 9 PM or so. Also I'd appreciate it if, just for my own personal curiosity, you would e-mail me if you read this blog and tell me so. Just curious to see how much of an audience I really have.

Have a good year folks, hopefully I'll keep updating here every week or two at least.

Much love,
Josh

Hey again folks...

So I haven't posted in quite a while - got out of the mood for it I guess. Anyway I guess it's time to update you all on what's happening in my life.

Most important thing - I just got back from Na'aleh, and it was AWESOME. Small camps are most definitely better. I would write more, but I really don't feel the need to right now, maybe later.

Aside from that, I leave for workshop on the 29th - and I'm scared shitless over it. Excited too, but scared. Really scared. More on this later almost for sure - I need to talk it out when I have more time.

Ye gods, how time flies. Already time to grab some final hangout time with friends, do a last few dances, gather my stuff, and head off to Israel. Scary. Very very scary. If you wanna hang out before I leave, talk to me - you know my contact info, just use Facebook if nothing else. Hopefully I'll see all you who read this soon, before I leave.
