    As I just wrote but I’ll write again, I was always here just hiding while eating my chulent. Seriously I eat it almost every day.

    Aw thanks! I’m actually usually here but don’t comment. My parents sometimes turn off the internet switch which is in their room so that I don’t stay up all night but I tend to stay up anyway so they stopped turning it off. What’s up here in the cr?

    Kapusta- That’s too bad. Shaatra is right, it’s elah elah bEloka dishmaya. If you want to check it out it is from the tefilah of Brich Shemay

    I got glasses in 11th grade and before that I always tried to imagine what it would be like to look at the world and everything would be blurry. But now I always try to imagine what the world would look like without it being blurry. Eyes are amazing! You don’t realize it untill you can’t see perfectly. It’s a shame because we really take it for granted.

    Kapusta- First of all the word are written in the paper that comes with the cd. Second of all the words are aramaic so they are hard to make out but I did read the cover because it gets me annoyed when I don’t know the words to songs so here goes. dihu Elaka kishot vioyrayseh kishot and then comes the yiddish part. It’s kinda funny to mix yiddish with aramaic!

    sunflower- you’re right. I’m sorry. All I was trying to say is that even thought MBD is not so young anymore, he is still able to sing and perform like a young man. I was not trying to put Lipa down. Believe me if I would jump like him I wouldn’t be able to breath let alone sing. They are both amazing.

    I used to get annoyed when all my brother wanted to listen to was MBD but now I see that he really is The King of Jewish Miusic! He really has a great voice and I was watching The Event and he was jumping up and down with Lipa. While Lipa was losing his breath MBD was not and he is old enought to be Lipa’s father.

    aim- Does your daughter’s school have a guidence counselor or someone who talks to the girls about seminary? In my high school there was someone who knew each student (I come from a smallish school) who had a private meeting with each of us and helped us decided and gave us options.

    Each girl needs a different seminary. I don’t know your daughter so I can’t say where she should go but maybe someone who knows here well who went to seminary in the past two or three years can help. Seminaries change from year to year so just because it was a certain way one year, it will not be the same the next. But the policies and main hashkafa of the place will be the same.

    I have a question. I want to ask my boss for a raise. I work in a school and they don’t have too much money but they are paying me peanuts and I don’t know if it would be rude to ask for a raise because sometimes they have trouble covering the month’s paychecks. Any ideas?

    sorry for the run-on

    Well I don’t really want to say specifics because my friend might be on the sight and I don’t want her to recognize the stories and figure me out. But I’ll just say a few things she told me that there was a man who did not speak english so her brother signed him in and stayed with him to translate everything the doctors were saying. He also told the hospital to put his name down on the man’s chart if there are any problems to call him. Also she told me that all of a sudden he got a text to come to the ER and within seconds he was there with a whole minyan of men in case the man died. Baruch Hashem they were able to revive him. It just shows that if you really care, nothing is to hard. Even to get a minyan in a minutes time and to be available for a stranger night or day during seder or during free time.

    My friend’s brother is a volunteer for Bikur Cholim and every night after seder he goes to the hospital to restock the fridges and to see if there is any way he can help. My friend was telling me the stories her brother told her about his trip one night. He just says it as if it is nothing but really he is doing amazing work making people’s stay much easyer by translating or getting through some red tape. It’s amazing what these people do and without thinking that they are great or that they deserve thank yous. That is why YIDDEN ARE THE BEST!!

    abx: How about the boy? Do you think the girl has a right to know about the boy if he is attractive? You never thought of that right? Or is it that the girls have no rights and the boys are allowed to push them around like a number on a list? There are a lot of unattractive boys out there. Is it that all boys are interested in is looks and how pretty she is and how skinny she is? It’s sick. WHAT HAPPENED TO MIDDOS? Sorry about the caps but this just really bothers me.

    azolis: “if your mother is smart, she’s providing pictures behind your back.” My mother is very smart and therfore she values her daughter’s opinion and feelings. My mother does not see it to be necessary to go behind her 20 year old daughter’s back. I have an open relationship with my mother which does not include her going behind my back.

    “those who hold back on offering pictures will lose” none of my sisters gave in pictures and Baruch Hashem they are happily married with children so……….. I think the right one will come along in the right time even if I don’t give in my picture. Don’t think that I have anything to hide becaue I don’t Baruch Hashem. I just don’t think it is right.

    Baruch Hashem I am ok. It was really scary though. I guess I wasn’t going fast enough for him (I am not a slow driver, by the way)so first he was flashing me with his lights and was getting dangerously close to the back of my car, he swerved around almost smashing into me and the car next to me and he rode next to me for a while. He was screaming and cursing at me (Not a Jewish person). I was petrified and I started saying Tehilim. Then he zoomed off.

    I think it’s disgusting that the mother of the boy and the boy has to see a picture of the girl. I never heard of girls seeing pictures of boys!! I refuse (to my mothers sorrow) to go to a shadchan that requires a picture from me.

    yankdownunder: Ever since I got into a minor accident while I was driving, I alway say a perek of Tehilim as I turn on my car. Baruch Hashem it has been almost a year and I have Baruch Hashem not been in any accidents!

    Shaatra: Yea I guess you’re right. But maybe they will learn how to calm down here when they see that there are others who are not like them. Also my advise was also for people who are not aggresive and wish to get away from those who are. But really I was just trying to point out the fact that in out of town cities we don’t feel the need to be at 5 places at once and so we don’t need to feel like we own the roads. Hey look at that we still manage to have fulfilling lives! 🙂

    mepal: I wonder what they say about my seminary! Actually I was once on a bus in Yerushalaim and I overheard two boys talking about seminaries and they came to a decision that my seminary was the best. It was very funny!

    Totaly different question but I always wondered why boys think it’s cool to smoke. Why is it such a big thing in Yeshivos?

    noitallmr: In my circle of friends we don’t really get into details but with one or two friends I would discuss some things openly. Every girl has her own feelings on the matter. For example some girls would be very insulted if their friends didn’t tell them that they were getting engaged but others (like myself) see dating as something private and therefore don’t need to know when their friends are about to get engaged. All my friends know already that I’m not going to tell them before I get engaged.

    we don’t discuss specific boys. But we do yenta and say “o so’n’so is going out.” We talk about what type of boy we want. Or how it’s so annoying that some boys are only looking for money or yichus. Just the normal things I guess.

    noitallmr: I didn’t mean that you sit around, it’s just a term. Anyway I guess that makes sense. We don’t really discuss it much. We do discuss shiduchim though. I never thought about it in that way that boys would discuss shidduchim. I guess I never thought about what boys discuss. We get together and shidduchim does come up because we are all in it. Does that happen by boys?

    bein hasdorim: I guess it’s just funny to me because I don’t have brothers. Or maybe because I never thought about it that a boy would say he only wants a girl from certain seminaries like I would say that I only want a boy from certain yeshivos. I wonder if my seminary is on the good list. Anyway I hope boys don’t sit around discussing seminaries. Do they?

    bein hasdorim: You are right. I do know which yeshivos I would not like the boy to be from and which ones are okay for me. But the whole checking out the specifics I leave to my very capable brothers-in-law. I don’t think boys know exactly which seminary they want the girl to be from. Or do they? I don’t know because I’m not a boy. But I would think they know something about seminary.
