urgghhh… it’s despressing just how long it takes me to read these words – and I haven’t even started learning meanings yet – I officially start Hebrew in October, so at this stage I’m just trying to recognise the alphabet and vowel system, and read & pronounce words. Hmm this is gonna take some work!

Yeah- its very frustrating. I’m at the point where the letters actually look like letters to me now, and squiggly lines. I’m able to read single words a lot better now, but if you give me a sentence to read in Hebrew, I’m down for the count.

I thought you knew it all. I’m so disappointed.
Did you get my email from a few days ago? I’m pretty sure I sent it to the right address this time.

Jeff-
I did, but I’m a horrible friend and haven’t been able to reply yet. Sorry brother. The short answer is that she is doing great.
