First, I re-connected with a long lost friend whom I care a lot about! Sometimes I wonder what our world would be without Facebook and all of the other social media networks! :) I have very few friends left who see no value in all of this, but my personal opinion is that they are missing out! How amazing is it to have one place where all of your memories come together, and where you can enjoy watching updates of your friends - their whereabouts, their life developments, their interests? :) I even got my beloved friend Tiffany hooked on Facebook, although she resisted it so adamantly for a long time! :)
I am also finalizing my invitation lists for my graduation ceremonies and pre- and post-graduation parties! Very exciting! :) It is hard to believe that I am so close to the end - where did time fly and what can I do to relive all of those incredible moments?
The only thing left for me to work on is my Lauder thesis, where I am examining the resilience and subservience of women in Iranian films. Perhaps I will upload my paper after I finish it, and share it with all of you! I have two recommendations in case you are looking for great movies to watch - Santouri and Two Women. Both exquisite!
So long for now! - I am going to read a few blogs about the launch of the new Kindle DX! I think I will actually buy it this summer! The thought of carrying my entire library on one device absolutely thrills me! :)

Back to Chocolate World!
Last Thursday I visited Chocolate World and Amish Country with some of my Israeli classmates. After a series of unexpected adventures including a flat tire in the middle of Amish fields, we finally made it to our buggy ride destination :) We had to skip lunch at an Amish restaurant and a visit to an authentic Amish house and farm, and instead hunt for an Enterprise location in the middle of nowhere! Around 3:30pm we arrived at Hershey, and Jared took us on a trolley tour of the city, as well as on the famous Chocolate World ride! We spent the afternoon with Hershey's Young Professionals Group and had dinner at my favorite place in Harrisburg: Cafe Fresco! Exquisite fusion cuisine!
