It's Pesach!

Yay, Pesach! I am home in lovely Highland Park, IL for the seders. Being home is so relaxing. I am temporarily ignoring the fact that I will soon return to school...and have 6 more weeks of stress. But then the school year will be over and I will be off to...

JERUSALEM!

I honestly did not anticipate returning to Jerusalem. Of course, I am thrilled to be doing so. I am applying to take an ulpan (intensive Hebrew language class) at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. I'm still working on the details (like the Hebrew placement exam), but things will fall into place.

Today I was informed by my dad that "If you can't get your graduate degree for free, that says something about the field you're working in." I'm pretty sure he meant fellowships/stipends, etc.

Of course, professional schools like law school do not apply to this rule.

To be honest, I really do not want to take out more student loans than I already have at this point in time. I am also not entirely sure what I would want to study.

Gah.
