On what chag do we hear the megillah? 🙂

without a doubt:)

are we the only ones still playing? 🙂

hazaken is hard to continue with 🙂

before a/o asks, i am NOT yossi z., despite the good taste in signatures… 🙂

a “lack” of wisdom 🙂

you emailed me asking me if i know who you are on here… 🙂

deiyezooger- did you see my brothers there? that’s where they’re all from 🙂

let’s try this again, shall we? just one q-if someone gets out, who takes over?

i agree 🙂

mountains of work 🙂

fruit is good 🙂

for those too lazy to google it themselves kuf alef vav vav ayin nun ayin

actually, my parents are only paying airfare… either i get scholarships, or i don’t go (c”v!) zehu… and my going has NOTHING to do with keeping up with anybody:) but shkoyich to your niece. if that worked for her, then i’m really happy for her! 🙂

k, not trying to be disrespectful in any way to anybody, and if it comes out that way, i apologize.

First, quoting things to most girls is NOT going to work. It might work for those who are “basically tznius” or looking to improve, but those who are comfortable are not interested.

Second, tznius in action, as oomis pointed out, is largely overlooked. Living oot, I have a lot of friends from a variety of backgrounds. As such, some dress more tzniusly than others at this point in their lives, but they are all good girls, alway running to do chessed, always looking for more ways to grow in Yiddeshkeit, ohavei Hashem, etc. And then i have friends who dress tzniusly, and look the part, and yet, the way they act… Screaming in the street, walking in a certain way in front of boys, you get the idea. I’m not saying the first group is right, or the second group is awful, and i’m not saying everybody fits into these categories. C”V!

Third, go into almost any highschool, and ask what the most dreaded speeches are… don’t be too shocked at the answer… they get annoying after a while, and we tend to tune them out.

this is just a random side point-short uniform skirts didn’t start in any one specific school. As long as there are rules, there will be girls trying to break them, and in my school girls have been cutting their skirts shorter for years… or wearing them too long…

Fourth-this is directed to any male who commented/wanted to comment: the same way learning torah is your mitzvah, tznius is our mitzvah. the same way i can’t understand how you have a yetzer hara not to learn, you can’t understand the yetzer hara not to dress tzniusly

For those who tznius isn’t a problem for-good for you! but some people are still struggling. Everyone has his/her struggles, and while tznius is very important, it may come harder for some than for others. People are coming from different places, and maybe they wore the tight skirt, but they didn’t wear the tight shirt. One thing at a time…. 🙂

laughs a lot 🙂

my house about 1 am, or my class after 10 midterms 🙂 actually, my class at any time. make that my school 🙂 jk! i love my school! 🙂

if you know the one i know, than i think so! but now i’m not sure… btw, i am a SHE! 🙂

no watermelon is watermelon and Smile E. Face is Smile E. Face:) there’s a very simple proof-watermelon doesn’t sign her posts with a 🙂 you chap? good! 🙂

i’m back! i was out of town for a few days 🙂 feels good to be missed! 🙂

classes are interesting! (most of them anyway…) 🙂

well then…

1.If it’s a situation where my getting involved will help, then i try to stop it. If not, i try to go over to the one being bullied afterwards and comfort her. And when applicable i try to speak to the bully or go to someone who can influence her… But there are those times when I’m too chicken 🙁 i’m working on it

2. turn bright red! i tend to put off admitting it until i have to… and i have to force the words out

3. freak, say a perek of tehillim, adn then either check it out or try to figure out what it is without getting out of bed (but thats more cuz i’m too lazy than being scared) there is one exception to this-if the noise is coming from the basement and i’m down there alone at 1 am, i say my perek as i’m runnign up the stairs (but then i usually get ahold of myself and go back!)

4. i don’t drive yet, so no worries there!

5. tell them as tactfully as possible, make it sound like the problem is with me, and things like that 🙂

calls on the student 🙂

my bad=my mistake, my fault, sorry about that, oops-depending on teh context…

for all those who don’t appreciate one of my favorite words, i’ll try to explain=”whatever” is a good all purpose word that can be used in many ways, and it just sums everything up so nicely. If anyone desires further explanation just ask me, and I’ll be glad to help you if i can! 🙂

maidel:)

i sign my name=:)

who am i really? 🙂
