Well, to be honest, for the first three it would have been impossible to hold a golf club let alone swing it. However, now that I am reaching the end of my twenties (oy, where did the time go), I have finally given into my father's passion for golf. Believe it or not the first …

Remember Me?
I'm embarrassed to say that it has been so long since I last posted on my dear blog that it took me a few minutes to figure out how to even create a new blog post. So, if you've forgotten, this is me: And while I am still Israeli, I am no longer living in Israel. …
That movie with Keira Knightly
You know. That one with that famous green dress? Atonement? Yes, that is the name of the film, and also another name for yesterday. In Judaism yesterday's holiday is known as the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), the holiest day of the year. This is the day we reflect on all the things we are sorry for …
Dinner’s On
Since the last time I posted (I know, it's been awhile) life has been pretty busy. When people say "life has been pretty busy" they are usually talking about how their work schedule has intensified, which mine certainly has. Or they are alluding to the their many social engagements with friends and family; of which I …
March: a Month of Meditation
March first. The first day, of the third month of the year. What better day than today to start a monthly challenge? I have decided that March shall be the month where I practice yoga every single day. This doesn't mean that I will be spending hours each day bound in warrior two, but I …
Spin Cycle
I am a runner. Or, well, I was more of a runner before the accident, but I still love running. However, I have been advised by my doctors and family to not run at all due to the high likelihood of damaged cartilage and inevitable arthritis. So, while I still hit the pavement about once …
You’ve Got Mail
Sometimes you live in a far away land. Sometimes you enjoy living in said far away land, but also miss your loved ones. And, sometimes you enjoy living in said far away land and simply ache for some Ziploc bags. That's where the loved ones come in. My dear family put together a care package …
Reaching for the Rungs
Well, all I can say is that I am living life and it is moving more quickly than I ever could have imagined. My days of Bay Area-living seem hazy and distant, but it's only been a few months since my feet last pulled me up the steep steps of Fillmore Street. I can almost …
Boo!
I hope I didn't scare you. I know I haven't written in a long time so I hope my presence back on my blog isn't too startling. Life's been busy in this part of the world. Not only have I been writing blog posts all day for the start up I currently work for (if …
Where have I been
Let's just say that when you are blogging all day for someone else, coming home to write your own blog takes a back seat. For the past few weeks I have been settling into my internship at a tech startup (www.tipranks.com) writing daily posts about news in the finance world and coming up with clever …
