I've said it once before...Once an academic, always an academic.
I was Jewish for an hour today.
But before I explain that, gotta touch on today's rundown. One of our students had to get some gravel out from under their eyelid. It was scratching up their retina...scary stuff. Long story short, they were prescribed some drugs that made them loopy. Their reaction to the drugs and interactions with other people...scary/funny stuff.
BUBBLE TEA trip!!! Me and some unable-to-be-disclosed-at-this-moment individuals when to TT Lounge again. Second day straight for bubble tea!
The day went as regularly scheduled, but I rushed through dinner so me and some folks could go to temple. Temple was interesting. A lot of singing but very good music at that. Most readings and singing were in Hebrew. The very little I did pick up on were some form of addressing God.
Being the religious studies major that I am/was, I was fascinated by the whole experience. Every song. Every passage. Every word that was spoken. Makes me wonder about Jesus' upbringing as a Jew and what He sang/read to God.
Movie Night! Together (和你在一起). Great movie, especially if you love violin and Tchaikovsky. Sooo good.
A student gave me a cookie from one of their care packages. That made my day. Thanks!
That's it for now. Very grateful for bubble tea and good music. It is in these little joys, of food and music and everything wonderful, that makes me wonder again and again of His invisible hand in the creation of everything.
