Social Life

I haven't posted in the last 2 nights because I have been invited out quite a bit. Thursday night Rafi invited me to a party in this area in southern Tel Aviv called Neve Tzedek. Rafi is a journalist, and the party was primarily journalists. It was in this amazing apartment that was decorated all Renaissance England style. I invited some friends along as well. My new friend Itamar pointed out that there were even some celbrities at the party. Apparently Michal Yanai (the one in the picture) was at the party. Itamar told me she was a soap star or something like that, and lately hasn't been doing anything, so she was probably trying to get some journalistic attention at the party. Either way I didn't meet her, and I didn't even notice her. And even if I had met her, I woundn't know who she was. It's like Jacob's Dad standing in line at starbucks behind Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Then yesterday my new American friend Jonah (and friends with Lepow, as I mentioned) invited me over to his house, as he has a huge porch and was having people over. He has an very intersting international circle, and the people were great. There were 2 mexicans, one brit, one aussie, two south africans, 3 israelis, two americans and me. We stayed up talking politics and drinking till around 3:30 am.

Tonight I'm invited out again, my friend from New York, Mor invited me out as she is having a little gathering for her friends at a place by my house called Joe's Cafe.
