Look what I found/ate tonight!
TRIP LEADERS!
Well hello again, Israel lovers! After a month long hiatus, jam packed with film sets, graduation, and what can only be described as “Compuberty,” my travel vlogs are back! This time, I sat down with Einav, our devoted tour guide, as well as trip leaders Daniel Bral and Arielle Waite, and got a glimpse into what Israel and the Birthright trip means to them.
To say that we put these three through hell would be an understatement (get it? get it??), which is why I cannot thank them enough for making my Taglit experience what it was. Einav’s knowledge on the history and geography of Israel simply knew no limit; I only wish I knew as much about my own country, let alone a country half way across the world. We were also privileged to travel with Daniel and Arielle. They were less like chaperones and more like peers, which is always appreciated with a “Coming-of-Age-Group” like ours. It’s thanks to these three, as well as the Israeli Soldiers and the many sights and life changing experiences in Israel that leave me so eager to go back!
STAY TUNED!

I bought some hummus at Trader Joes
The white bean hummus that tastes like pesto mixed with happiness. But then I worked two weeks on film sets back-to-back. And then I flew to Chicago for the weekend. Now I’m back, and I finally opened my hummus to find it did not smell of pesto, nor happiness. It smelled rather like an April 23rd sell by date.
And now it’s in the trash and I hate everything.
Everyone’s been asking me what I want for graduation but I don’t like answering that because it ruins the surprise & really, I’m low maintenance so I’m cool with just about any gift & it’s the thought that counts so here’s a list of things I DON’T want for graduation:
- Picture frames.
- That’s it.

Follow them for poetic hilarity!
“Only hang around people that are positive and make you feel good. Anybody who doesn’t make you feel good kick them to the curb and the earlier you start in your life the better. The minute anybody makes you feel weird and non included or not supported, you know, either beat it or tell them to beat it.” — Amy Poehler
This is most perfect for me right now.
