More Student Reflections

I met some girls who come from Australia who are going to be in Israel till the same day we go home. I got a picture with one of them which was very sweet of her to let. Her name is Jessica and she treated me very nicely. I cannot stress enough how sweet she was to me. She told me she would add me as a friend on Facebook. That made me feel very happy. Those girls are special because they treated me like a normal person. She also promised me that she would take my phone number and call me when we got home and vice versa........Elliott



Since I've come to Israel, I have had to learn about how to manage money without spending on things that I don't need. It's hard because there are so many things that you want. This has taught me about real life because you can't just buy everything that you see. The way I am able to keep track of my money is by writing down how much I have and how much I spend into a transaction register. I also am careful not to buy things every day. That way I will have money left over for the things I really want. I am also learning about myself, who I am and what I am good at.......Dov





It feels good to be here away from my parents and learning how to live on your own. Here, I am learning how to wake up on my own and drop off and pick up my laundry. It feels good to live on a kibbutz because there are more people and no driving on shabbos here. I would like to come back here next year.......Yehuda
