For our first AP English essay of the year, our teacher instructed us to write about what we see ourselves doing in the year 2008 (she said that she used to make it the year after graduation, but somany people wrote about learning in Israel that she shanged it.) So I wrote this thought provoking essay, though i am not sure if i want to share it just yet... I'll see...
Where do you see yourself in 2008? Think any of the original hashkafniks/hockers will still be active then?

You fell for it.

Five years ago, I saw myself in 2003 as a mother of three.
Now, five years later, I absoulutely refuse to think of what'll be with me in 5 yrs time. The prespect is frightening. I want to b'shalom get over the yomim noraim first. And chanukah. And start cleaning for Pesach. Argh. 2008? I'm currently an aunt of, bli ayin hora, 29 kids. In five years from now, I daresay, I'll be an aunt of 60. I can't even think!!!!!!!!!!! -------------------- |
