what you imagine

This is the kind of personality you imagine that you'll be around if you make aliyah.  Here's what you will be around:

All day for a simple test

Yesterday I went for a medical test. The only available testing site was in Modin. This required a 1 1/2 hour bus trip, plus 15 minutes of waiting for the bus and 15 minutes of walking. That's 2 hours each way for a 10 minute test. I had to take the day off from work. 

The lovely light fixtures of Israel

 The lovely light fixtures of Israel You see this everywhere, in apartments, hallways, lobbies, schools. It's not lovely and uplifting. Is this really an OECD nation? That's only if you include military sales and expenditures. Maybe it's a bit better in Ramat Gan. But for religious people, the place is a dump.
