Hi

Since I can’t really hear from you, we’ll work the same way as always: I’ll tell you what happened and I hope that everything is cool with you… 🙂

So what did we have that week?
Fatma went out to a scouts trip as a guide to her group. The all class has only 3 girls, and there are all in the scouts (100% yeah!). Only 2 of them were supposed to go out to the trip, but then one of them got sick so the second didn’t get out. Fatma got out as “groupless guide” – but everybody’s used all the stuff she made up to the trip.

Nathan found a spring not far from our house, so I’ll have to find time and go see it. I’m writing you now, like always, when I’m on my way to the Technion. We picked up hitchhiker that told us that there is a new spring – her friends built it when their friend was killed in the last war in Gaza. What I want to say is that it’s a wonderful to make a memorial to someone that died.

Ima is working with other mothers from Guri’s Communa to buy them stuff. Because the all point of the communa Guri is in, is to see that they finance themselves, they don’t want no money from the parents (that is why they didn’t buy no meat and ate only rice in the first couple of weeks – till they had enough money to buy it). The mothers found a wonderful way to give them things – they make people donate them things (Oven, tickets to a play…).

Ima, Aba, Fatma and Guri went to a wedding of a good friend of the family. His little brother (that learned with me) – was killed when he was 17 years old. He talked about it when under the Hupa (when you just get married). Ima said everybody start crying.

I will probably fly to Nepal in December with the EWB (Engineers Without Borders). We will help them to built a biological Reactor (it make cows shit into gas that they can use for cocking).

Take Care.
