It has been much too long since my last post, and I blame my new found social media love: twitter. In classic twitter style (limited to 140 characters), here's why I've been neglecting my blog and spending my time on twitter:
This is what I want for my birthday (you can take that to mean the painting, or the elephant...)
One of the big turning points in my life was in 10th grade when I went on a 6-week trip to Israel on an amazing youth Israel trip with an organization called Nesiya ("Journey" in Hebrew). For now I won't go into my experience on the trip or how it changed me, but I was just reminded of the essay I wrote to get into the program: I was supposed to write about a song or book that really spoke to me in some way. I chose the song "The World Ain't Slowin' Down" by Ellis Paul.

Some may say I finally bit the bullet... others may say I have succumbed... but I have recently gotten myself up on Twitter. For those of you who don't know, Twitter is (from their website) a service for friends, family, and co-workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing? And you can update from the web, text message, Facebook, and more.
