Just a little update

I had my Hebrew final last Thursday, and Hebrew is now over which is absolutely wonderful no longer having to wake up super early 3 days a week.

For my anti-Semitism class, our final was a paper on any topic of our choice about anti-Semitism. I originally chose to do my paper on anti-Semitism in Ireland from the late 19th century-early 20th century. Turns out there really wasn't very much, but most of the events turned out to be in one city, Limerick, so I changed my topic to anti-Semitism in Limerick Ireland. It was quite interesting to see the anti-Semitism there, and how it differed from eastern European anti-Semitism, and yet I was still able to write a full 10 pages. I was impressed I even got there.

For Evolutionary Psychology, we have our final on January 1st (yea, Rothberg actually schedules finals on New Years, they must really not want us to celebrate at all) at 12:30 pm. It doesn't seem like it will be too ad, and it is just a regular multiple choice test.

For The Emergence of Biblical Israel, that final is on the 2nd also at 12:30, and also doesn't seem like it is going to be be too bad, but definitely more room for error.

My trip for winter break has officially been all booked now. Officially, I will be going to France from January 5th-January 10th, Ireland from the 10th-14th, and London from the 14th-16th. The rest of the people I'm traveling with will be in England through the 19th, but I need to come back early because on the 18th, me and about 30 other Nativers will be going to Poland for 8 days.


P.s. Sorry if this is the last blog update for a bit, I actually am going to have to study for these finals, so there may not be another til the 2nd. If I can, I'll try and get one in within the next day or 2 to talk about Hannukah however which ends tonight.
