Thursday: Woke up with my knee really hurting from basketball, which is weird beczuse it didn't hurt while playing, just the day after, and it hurt pretty much all day. Had a quiz in ulpan after a terrible day of ulpan like always, but based on the part that we went over in class, I think I did really well, which is good because we also got back the test from Monday, and I did significantly better than I had done previously. That night, instead of going out like most people, because I have been feeling kinda sick I stayed in, but sorta pigged out with a really good friend. We picked up 2 pizzas, a pint of ice cream, and 1.5 liters of coke and just watched movies in his room. We actually had a very wonderful night. Then when everyone came back, due to the prime location of his room, we were able to see basically everyone, so we still enjoyed the company of many people.
Friday: Slept in with no school, and I felt much better when I woke up. My knee even felt a lot better. I did still feel pretty sick. I infact woke myself up from me coughing so hard. It was actually a pretty boring day. I woke up really late and then just did homework and watched more movies. I was going to go to services with this one person to this one shul that nobody has tried out yet but he got back from an "adventure" too late so we just chilled out at base until dinner. After dinner however, me and 5 others went to go play basketball for a while. That was good to get out and get sweaty. Came back around midnight and went back to bed.
Saturday: Woke up around noon to go to lunch. Afterwards I then had a very phylosophical discussion about god and the universe, and for those curious, I solved the answers to the universe and god. It was pretty awesome, or at least I like to think I did, and in the discussion turned debate, after having one of the staff come in and back the religious side, where I took the analytical side, I basically won with "The question to the universe and god (assuming excistense) is a "why". The answer to the universe through the scope of language is the concrete answer to an infinite amount of "how"'s and "what"'s." If you wish for a more in depth reasoning and background on the debate, feel free to ask, but basically the other person was debating for the existence of god through the scope of everything that is "why" being unanswerable, and therefore god, and while I am not sure on my belief of god or not, I took the analytical aspect (not necessarilly for or against god) and essentially answered his why's through how's and what's. It was actually a very interesting and good debate. Then I went to sleep some more, then dinner, then more sleep, the selichot, and then homework. YAY!!!!
