This page is to give those of you who are not lucky enough to be taking
Hebrew, in summer school, in New Jersey, a taste of what life has been like this
summer. Go ahead, be jealous!
| Our
daily routine starts out with either walking to school or, if the
humidity requires, early AM studying at Starbucks...

Nick, early morning studying at
Starbucks
|
Our
daily ritual of crossing the street from Starbucks back to the
car, legally

|
After
the 7-8:30AM studying, it is time to drive to school and go to class...

Walking to class
|

The quad (and chapel) in summer

"Class" consists of precept
first, 8:45AM to 10AM.

Kenneth, our fearless preceptor

The best Hebrew precept

quiz..."So, you are in a soap factory..."

football at break

Kenneth, looking cool

Just so there is evidence that I am
actually here...
|
| After
break is over, we return to class promptly at 10:45 to begin the lecture
portion of our day

Our normal seats in Hebrew
|
Joe, teaching us Hebrew...Ya Ra
|
Our
lectures are all in power point, so that we can review them just for fun
on Friday and Saturday nights.

A typical power point lecture

Another power point lecture

| After
class, sometimes we go back to precept. This day we talked Kenneth into
letting us sit outside...

After
class is over for the day we make our way to the caf for lunch at 12:15
Waiting for lunch...

Sometimes,
there is free PB&J in the caf

Nick at the Bread Bar
|
In the afternoons we typically study at
Starbucks again, but sometimes we make a run for the Borders and study
there...

Trevor and "The New System"at
Borders
|
Last
Friday, after class, we decided to make a different kind of run for the
Border

Casey, Trevor and me at On the Border
for lunch and to visit our friend Margie who works there
|
| Each
night, after we are done with dinner and cleaning up, we study Hebrew
some more. These are some nice self-timer shots that we took. Yes, we
are geeks.

Our nightly study time
|
What
is perhaps more pathetic is that we continued to take not one, not two,
but many self-timer photos

Fun with Hebrew
|
It
is so great when it all starts to make sense.

| Friday
afternoons the Greeks and the Hebrews get out all that summer language
aggression on the Ultimate Frisbee field.
