It’s September 15th and tonight marks our last night in our 2 week quarantine. Coming to Muss, one of my biggest goals was to become friends with everyone, and I’m happy to say that I have already met some people that I will never forget. When I first got here I was really nervous because the friends that I had originally came with were quarantined together and I was with people I had never met. Although it was frustrating in the beginning this turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Me and my new roommates are now 2 weeks in and closer than ever. We are headed to our first trip with the whole muss community in a couple days and I can’t help but be nervous. This will be the most people I, and almost every other student have been around in 4 months. It’s pretty surreal. I’m also nervous about how hot it is, and hiking in the heat. But aside from that I know it’s going to be amazing. My main goals for when we get out of quarantine are making friends with everyone and keeping up with my good exercising habits. With all the hikes we will be going on that’s really important to me. Lastly considering Israel is now going on lockdown for 2 more weeks I want to focus on enjoying myself, making new memories/friendships and taking advantage of the beautiful campus and all it has to offer.
