Thursday, January 19, 2006 (my blog) Thought I would tell you that London is swell. I was at a modern dance performance yesterday (god help people who actually like dance, must depress them all this crap out now). Today I left work at 1pm (half day) and walked along the museums of south Kensington. On my way to the tube I saw an ice rink being prepared for 100's of children waiting at the sides with their skates on. ahhhhhhaaaaaaa I love London. Culture and fun all around. And then just as I was ending a conversation with someone who may or may not offer me my dream job, Dave texted me ...... Are you ok? Did you hear about the bomb? (the worst words I have ever heard, because I so know what it means) My beautiful daydream burst, as my day became night, and my phone kept ringing.... I just wanted to jump on the first plane and go home……to my lovely Tel Aviv (to my dear friends). What has happened to me? Why am I so tense? So uneasy on buses and packed trains? Why I am always looking round for potential danger, I never used to do that? And then it dawned on me, without meaning to, after 10 years in Israel, and through no fault of my own, I have become an Israeli! |
