my weekend

This weekend was a really good one... On Friday evening we went for dinner with Rob's bosses from Germany - we met them in the center of town - and walked to a really good sea food restaurant that one of them knew from the last time he was here. With us was the company's translator- a young Chinese woman. It's the second time I'm having dinner with her - for Rob it was more than the second time. Like all the other times she took control over the menu - reading it alone and deciding for us what we'll eat, And just like the first time I had dinner with her - it was terrible! She never ever shares the menu with us- meaning she never translates it to us- just reads it to her self. On top of that - she never orders enough food for everyone and we always stay hungry. I left that dinner thinking it could have been so much better if only I hadn't stayed hungry in an expensive good restaurant... Rob's bosses are really nice ppl - and the food situation kinda shadowed the whole evening for me...
On Saturday we woke up late and then I made some chocolate balls for a friends b-day party. We went to an Indian restaurant for dinner (was really good) and then to the party. It was a really good party- and I met some ppl that I haven't met since I came back to China. Some it was really nice and surprising to see and some was surprising and not nice... LOL... But in general we had a really good time there...
Sunday was the laziest day of all - we didn't get out of bed before 14:00... Needless to say - it took me forever to fall asleep again at night...

My computer is still dead- waiting for the ppl from the lab to call with some kind of news - hopefully good news.

It's cold and rainy- and it's gets harder and harder to get out of bed early in the morning... I can't wait until winter is over- I really do not like it... summer person - what can I do...

I'll go to class now (skipped the first one- was moving too slowly in the morning...)

Back Home

Was at Yifat's for 2 days. Was GREAT! We went out on both nights, the first I got kinda drunk, the second- I learnt from the last one to not mix alcohol (it seems like we never really learn, right?) couldn't get much sleep the first night coz of the nausea... lol... We went to the uni's pool yeasterday (the nice lady let me in for free, from the back gate - coz there's no way to get in unless you buy a 5 entrance ticket for 200 nis) after that we went for indian food- in a really cheap great little restaurent, where you sit on cushions outside, and there's only vegetarian food. On the way south to Yifat, I met a person about my car. I still have my car- do the math. It's really hard to sell my car because it was a rental before. I hate lying to people's faces. I'm no saint, but now i know there are a few things wrong with it- and I can't stand in front of a person- and try to sell him or her a "damaged" car. It's not on such bad shape- I must say- but well... it's not perfect... Dahhhh!!! it's a used car!!! It seems like everyone here is trying to get a perfect car, for really cheap. Stupid people.
Today I left, and started driving to the north. Stopped at my dad's for a short visit- saw my lil bros, had some fun with them. Then headed home. I miss having my own place, but here it does feel more like home than anywhere else right now...
I must admit that I CAN'T wait for my flight. It's in exatly 3 weeks. Still have to get back to this one Chinese uni in Shanghai- the only one that said- "OK - you can sign up- if you're willing to catch up on the program yourself" (I'm gonna get there 2 weeks after the semester starts). It's not gonna be easy- but I'll start going over my Chinese books tomorrow.
Gonna go to sleep soon- after I'll have some quality time with myself...
