Doesn’t that word seem strange to anyone else? Observative. It’s like a cross between ‘conservative’ and ‘observant’. My browser is underlining it in red, telling me it’s misspelled even though I know it’s not. It’s a word that’s been annoying me for about a week now, because it’s just so odd. Let me start from […]

Jewish Music
Okay, this will be a short post. I’m just curious what people who have never been exposed to jewish music before will think about it. I’m going to put two videos below, one by the Yeshiva Boys Choir, in Hebrew but has a really modern beat, and the other is a song by Abie Rottenberg […]
The End is Near…
I don’t know if I’m the only one, but I’m starting to feel the end of the semester creeping up on me. The weather is getting colder, the work is piling up, and everyone’s talking about classes for Spring 2012. There are only really 3 weeks and 2 days until the end of classes, and […]

The butterfly effect-if only
Just saw the butterfly effect and that was definitely the most moving movie I’ve seen in a long time. The idea that we can go back in time and change things-hell, I’d give twenty years of my life right now to go back in time-but who knows how it would effect other people’s lives??? Book […]
Lasting Impressions
There are certain things that you never forget. Like the time the kid peed on the tree in third grade, and then moved to Israel. Or in Ms.Larson’s second grade class, when the girl threw up on the alphabet carpet when the class was learning about Jupiter. Stuff like that. This past summer, I ran […]
There’s no place like home
Well it has been more than a week since the tornado swept through my neighborhood in Forest Hills, but it looks as if it only happened yesterday. Driving through my neighborhood everyday is like trying to solve a crime without any clues or hints, its almost impossible. I took a drive up to Connecticut on […]
Sweet Sweet Sundays
As I stared at my course schedule on Saturday night, almost to the point where one would think I could burn a hole right through it, I went back and forth as to whether it was a good idea to keep my Sunday class on my schedule. My Sundays are my only days off, my […]
Hello World!
Hello World, “Allow myself to introduce…myself” (yes I am quoting Austin Powers, how eloquent of me don’t you think?). My name is Barbara and I am a little bit of everything all rolled into one. I am also known by my Polish nickname Basia, or Varvara (a name that I have been hearing a lot […]
