Vacation
The most recent events in my life which I would consider to be vacations would be the second Lebanon war and my basic training. I love the Technion, but I think it’s high time for some R&R. With no upcoming tests hovering over my head, homework pressure low-to-nonexistent, and my girlfriend’s birthday Murphy’s-law-bendingly coinciding with her getting some leave, this is a perfect opportunity to try my hand at a real vacation.
Okay, so it’s just two days, but I could hardly ask for anything better. The location is a Tzimmer recommended by friends and family. My parents have graciously lent me the car for the purpose. Last but not least, I’ve gotten my hands on some massage oil.
Studying at the Technion can get rather hectic. But hell, I have just one more year to go, after which I undergo lime-tinted metamorphosis. Perhaps low-key, nearby, short-term vacations are all I can afford. But with good friends, a wonderful girlfriend, and a geeky way of getting excited at seemingly mundane things, I can’t complain. Even with EE atrocities in my recent past and, in all likelihood, my near future, I can’t help but wear an annoying smile on my face.
