I am happy, shy, and honest.
My Self-Summary
I'm looking for a nice JEWISH guy. :)
Intellectualism is a huge part
of my life. If I can't talk to you about interesting things, I
won't be able to connect with you. People I feel close to have to
be able to keep up a conversation about ANYTHING. that's the most
important thing, because later on in life that's all you're going
to have left.
I am a gadget girl! :) I love gadgets like the iphone finally got
one!!!), PDA's laptops, etc. etc.!! Even though I spend a lot of
time with such things, I do not like being closed off in my room in
front of the computer screen 24/7. I LOVE the outdoors and my
dreams include such complicated things as going
backpacking in
Europe/road-tripping in the US and as simple as just going to camp
somewhere quiet and beautiful, laying on the grass and watching the
stars.
Even though I may not look it, I love EXERCISING! I love aerobics
classes like step, kickboxing and boot camp, but nowadays I mostly
run and swim. I finished my first mini triathlon!! 200m swim; 5K
run, and 10 mile bike in March 2008. WOOOHOOO!! :) But since I
started medical school and also since I got a little injured this
past summer (2009) I can't bike anymore :((( So I run and swim,
which is good enough for me cuz biking is hard!!
I LOVE SCIENCE! It's so incredible to learn how everything works.
It's amazing, it's... it's an indescribable feeling (isn't that
line from a song? hmm)! I love asking questions and I love hearing
the explanations for them. I love biology, I love math, I love
physics, I love neurology and cardiology, I love philosophy (but
not the kind that's really hard to understand.) I love life and I
love the explanations for everything in it!
One thing I have realized over the past few years is that I can't
fake it and I don't like people who do it well or try to. I am who
I am, and I can't be somebody that I am not. And you should be too,
cuz you're awesome the way you are ;-)
I do not enjoy negative personalities.
Intelligence, maturity and confidence in a man are the three things
that turn me on (the first being the most important), and the three
things I could probably not do well without. A severe lack of the
last two are a real turn off. Not to be mean, it's not like I won't
be your friend if you're super shy :-), on the contrary, I love
talking to shy people, and sometimes they turn out to be really
confident on the inside haha :) (which is still a turn on). Excess
of the 3rd one is a REALLY big turn off, and I AM being mean, I
don't tolerate arrogant smart-a**es or any BS for that matter
:)
I am originally from Israel. This does not mean my native language
is Jewish or Israeli. It is *HEBREW*! Haha! :) Lived in the US for
about 6 years now. Texas, and especially San Antonio, are awesome
start-offs for a person coming from the Israeli culture, but
definitely not the place I'd like to stay at for the rest of my
life. Not sure where I want to end up. Definitely want a lake- or
river-house someday. But it is yet to be determined if that will
ever happen. We shall see.
I want to experience the world and travel, and for a while there
I've been pretty upset by the fact that medical school and being a
doctor may make it nearly impossible. But I've come to learn that,
well, maybe I won't get to experience the "ultimate experience of
the world", but I might experience something small but pretty
significant, and that I just have to make time for it. So... I'm
waiting, and planning and hoping I will do it before I'm too old to
experience it as a young individual who can still climb mountains
without worrying about breaking my hips or ruining my knees
;)
I like to be chased.

גדלתי בישראל אבל עברתי לקנדה כשהייתי בת 16 ועכשיו אני גרה בארה"ב
אבל!!! מאז שעזבתי ואפילו עכשיו, 5 וחצי שנים אחרי אני כל כך כל כך
כלכך מתגעגעת לישראל ואני מתגננת לחזור. רציתי לחזור לעשות צבא, וללכת
לבי"ס לרפואה בישראל, אבל אבא שלי אומר שעדיף לעשות בי"ס לרפואה פה...
איייי.... אין לי ארץ אחרת!! אין!! אין כמו ישראל והישראלים
שבה!!
אני בטוחה שאתם מבינים אנגלית אז אתם כבר יודעים כל מה שכתבתי
באנגלית... מה אני יכולה עוד להוסיף? אפילו שגדלתי בישראל, מעולם לא
הייתי באילת - נכון! זה מוזר ואני צריכה לבקר שם לפחות פעם אחת. יש
הרבה מקומות בארץ שעדיין לא ביקרתי בהם.. אבל נראה.
גדלתי בירושלים - אז כן, אני ירושלמית בדמי ובנשמתי. ירושלים היא
ביתי.
What I’m doing with my life
I am a second year medical student now. First year of medical
school was pretty hard, mentally and physically, but when I look
back I realize how much I've learned about medicine in general, but
also about my own capabilities, and how humbling the experience has
been ;)
I love medicine, but I don't want it to be my whole life. I am
career-oriented, but I want other things in life. I love traveling,
and being outdoors, and hanging out, and living life so maybe I
wont be the next amazing world-renouned surgeon, but I'm sure as
hell going to be the best doctor I could be but also awesome in
life in general :)
Now in Hebrew
בעיקרון, הייתי רוצה לסיים רפואה בארה"ב ואז לחזור לארץ. אני לא חושבת
שאי פעם ארגיש ממש שייכת פה בארה"ב - בטוח לא כמו שאני מרגישה שייכת
לישראל. כפי שכתבתי כבר, אין לי ארץ אחרת, גם אם אדמתי בוערת!
:)
בכל אופן, מי יודע מה יהיה... נראה :
I’m really good at
reading people (in person); understanding science; forgiving
(sometimes I'm too good at it...); driving! even though I'm female!
Yes I AM good at driving!!! Y-E-S I A-M!!!! Don't argue with me!!!
LOL ;) jk; agreeing to go on spontaneous adventures (when I have
time!); used to be good at writing poems - especially in Hebrew.
Kinda lost that now... donno why.... hmmm...
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm very introverted - but I like to call myself an extroverted
introvert. What this means, in simple words, is that I project A
LOT of things to the inside, but I'm also friendly. I'm smart. I
have high standards. I'm independent. I'm an analyzer (of anything
and everything).
You know what a better question would be? What people think when
they get to know me!!! :) Or maybe that's a question for
you.......?

Now in Hebrew
קרמבו, מילקי, שיפודי פרגיות, לחמניות ישראליות, רוגלאך, והתרבות
הישראלית!!! :
I spend a lot of time thinking about
LIFE; philosophy (the
uhh... understandable, down-to-earth stuff, not those super
undecipherable crap); people's emotions and actions and the reasons
for them; reasons for things in life (science-things, like... why
is the sky blue - that sort of thing); what I am going to be like
in 20 years; when I am going to find somebody; medical school; how
to become a truly *good* doctor in all aspects; the future of
Israel and the
Jewish people; the
future of America; and much more... :)
Now in Hebrew
האם אי פעם יהיה שלום בארץ....
התשובה היא לא. לפחות לא ב 1000 השנים הקרובות. לפעמים אני רוצה
שתהייה רעידת אדמה כזו שתפריד בין השטח של ישראל וארצות ערב לחלוטין
כך שישראל תהייה אי קטן. אני חושבת שזה יגרום לדברים להיות קצת קלים
יותר, לא? :
On a typical Friday night I am
Uhhhhhh what I should be doing is studying - but what ends up
happening is me catching up on sleep by taking a 3 hour nap, and
then feeling guilty for wasting a good Friday, and then maybe going
to watch a movie, or out to get a drink with some friends. or... if
I'm lucky and I find someone who wants to... we go camping! I <3
camping (but NOT when it's HOT!)
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
I am naive (but no stupid!!)
And... this is kind of a weird rather than private thing - I can
only cross my legs in one direction (right over left). Dunno why
:-P
You should message me if
you understand that my priority right now is school, and that I am
usually very stressed out. I need somebody to vent with, but that
would help me forget about how bitter I am about the school and the
people in my class that drive me nuts ;)
