Desert!

In Israel it's a tradition, well, rather a norm, that each year the whole grade in all schools go to a trip to a natural site, to walk in a quiet environment for a bit, and spend some time with friends and mama earth.
This year they took me and my 10th grade buddies to the Negev in israel, which is mostly one big ongoing desert. The trip was fun, we slept in huge tents all of us together and the walking wasn't as bad as you may imagine, but there is something about the desert that I just can't seem to like. You probably understand what I mean, it's just so dull.
Well, one way or another, I had a great time.

I've figured since none of you know Israel, I might as well stray a tad from fashion and post up some pictures (cell phone, sorry) from the trip. It is a gorgeous view, after all.





So, that is all.

I think I should be posting this blog more often.


Now, who looks dumber, me, or the camel? ;)


Love, Lotem.

Wow, it looks beautiful. I used to live in Hawaii and I worked as a teacher's assistant one summer. People didn't understand when I complained about going to the beach with the class, I mean I love the beach but when it's a school trip it can be boring.

Enjoy your time...and I'm just a little bit curious - shouldn't you have holidays from school just now?
