i am a full grown man

went to ulpan today. then al and i walked to the TV station. it was the coolest fucking thing. keren (our director there) showed us how to edit the segments from the video camera so that the old ones can be deleted and we can upload the new ones. we even created our own transitions. it was amazing. just on i.movie too, so we can play at home on our macbooks.

after we finished editing, we met a woman named vicky that works in the same office with keren. she definitely propositioned me for marriage to her son, who is 27, happens to be named itzik, and speaks good english. i was devastated and alli was laughing her ass off. this woman asked to take a picture of me so she could show him. i politely declined...

keren showed us how to operate the cameras in the studio, the moniters in the director's booth and the sound mixer also. i am so fucking excited about this job, i can't tell you. we even got a little peek inside the radio station upstairs, where two other ISCers work. no big deal or anything, but they just gave alli and me a hebrew shoutout on the radio :)

we stopped by kadima on the way home and played with the kids for an hour-ish before heading home. i started to feel kind of shitty, so i just stayed in and watched the better part of ission impossible 3 (if that's even POSSIBLE, hey oh). some dude named drur stopped by to hang out for a bit. apparently, he used to work for oranim, introducing ISCers to other israelis, but for some reason or another they parted ways. dunno about that.

BUT i did find out today that i am able to use the nicer oranim cameras for the kids. at least 3 or 4 of them, so that'll be much nicer for the kids. now i just have to figure out how i'm going to teach them how to take nice photos. internet here i come. i talked to caitlin and my dad tonight which was really nice. i'm almost done with my book (david sedaris: dress your family in cordouroy and denim--- fucking hilarious, and makes my family seem like the cleavers... not that they weren't :)) well, while phosphorescent lulls me to sleep, i bid thee good evening. more later...

love love,
