First night of freedom

On our first night, we weren't allowed to go out. We won't ever have curfew when staying at Beit Nativ, except for that first night. Instead of being smart like the rest of the group and going to bed at about 1 am, me and 7-8(it depended on the time) just hung out in one person's room and literally did an all nighter. While it was not the smartest thing to do, it was a ton of fun. We had a great view of the sunrise from the balcony on my floor.

The day was generally ok, I didn't start to get tired til about 3 when my 2nd semester group did  neighborhood tour so we were walking a lot, and then during Nativ orientation I actually fell asleep while sitting right next to the director. Later on we all went to a bar-b-q which was pretty good.

Afterwards a lot of the people took full advantage of their legality and lack of curfew, whereas I did not. A friend of mine had surgery on his foot before he left so he can't walk a lot, so instead we just crossed the street, got a beer and then just hung out with this other girl at a very pretty fountain right next to where we stay. Eventually people started coming back, so we again just hung out around Beit Nativ.

All in all, a very good day and night and I can't wait for the rest.

P.s. We did ice breakers by 2nd semester group, so I met a lot of my group and they are really cool, and my staff are also really awesome, along with all staff in general,
