On Sunday, I took minutes at a Search for Common Ground workshop for Israeli and Palestinian journalists. Most important take-away piece of knowledge: It's apparently not too soon for Haifa fire jokes.
In visa-related news, today I had the privilege of delving into the Israeli governmental bureaucracy as I sought the coveted A2 student visa, which they apparently no, no, don't have it because you no need it, you eh just studying now so B2 is better, no A2, okay, tov.
Also today, the instructor of my architecture class (yes, I'm taking an architecture class, and, yes, it's a lot like middle school) informed us that, in all seriousness, the real reason it's difficult to capture Jerusalem is because "God protects Jerusalem." Things are very, very academic at Rothberg.
Oh, and this character has imported himself to Jerusalem for the week.
