Day 74 - Harmony

Day 74 - Tuesday 27 July 2010

Was walking through town tonight and saw this crowd of people - so went to check it out.

They were all crowded around these two little kids doing circus skills - the little kid on the left doing incredible tricks with a 'Diablo' and the one on the right, juggling.

The lady in the front wearing the shirt for 'Circus Harmony' I assumed was the Madricha/Leader. I still have no idea what it was for or what the Circus Harmony do (I will look it up) but for me I just enjoyed watching them shortly, and seeing the amusement and smiels it bought to the faces of all the onlookers to see these two little kids making everyone happy doing something they love..

Day 73 - Ride

So today is a two part photo - just to show you all how cool my new Bike is..

I wanted to spend as much of my Sal Klita (the money i get for making Aliyah) on meaningful stuff and not only on boring basics like rent and phone bills and stuff..

So far, the first one bought me my double bed. And now, my latest acquisition is this fold-up bike. I'm chuffed, because I catch buses and then walk a lot - this makes the walking part that much easier because when I alight from the bus, I open up the bike and ride away..

I can highly recommend to others.. =)

Day 73 - Monday 26 July 2010

Day 72 - The Beginning..

So, had the Tzav Rishon today..Full health baby!..

Guess you can all guess what part of the test this was about to be.. =)

Day 72 - Sunday 25 July 2010

Day 71 - Not mine..

Day 71 - Shabbat 24 July 2010

So even though I didn't leave the house tonight because I wanted to relax and sleep before the Tzav Rishon on Sunday, I thought this picture I took the other night was a good replacement.

It was obviously put up by someone who opposes the Chabad belief that the Lubbavitcher Rebbe was the Mashiach..

I kind of found it ammusing and thought it merited world wide view..

Day 70 - Kiruv

Day 70 - Friday 23 July 2010

Day 69 - Missing

Day 69 - Thursday 22 July 2010

Sometimes you just don't manage to snap that photo you really want to..

I was walking home today and saw just the cutest, and sincerest image I think I've seen in a while - an elderly lady was walking down the street, struggling, bent over and walking slowly, while being supported by another elderly lady!

It's just hard to explain in words, but to me it exemplified kind deeds. Generally a deed you ascribe to a younger person, helping an elderly person - but in this notion, it opened up this action to be thought about in an entirely different avenue of thinking for me.

We are only as young as we feel (something my mother is very fond of saying), and in this notion, a good deed can be carried out anywhere, anytime, by anyone - and has no set parameters.

Kind of feeding on from the Tisha Be'Av rant, we must all look to continue to do random good deeds just because we can, in the knowledge that it will make someone else's life that little bit easier, and hopefully, most often, make them smile.

Day 68 - Sculpture

So that is just the intro picture..

After three weeks of not shaving, and the first time I actually have a beard for the Omer/3 Weeks in a while (well at least that I can remember), I thought that before shaving properly, I'd have some fun..

After thinking for some time, and being inspired from I have no idea where (I was thinking maybe the Boon Mo, though so far I have been called Hulk Hogan and Wolverine..) I went with the following look:

Day 68 - Wednesday 21 July 2010

It comes down from the sideburns, up around for the Mo, then back down and mirror image on the other side back up the sideburn..

To quote the waitress at work: 'You're balls must be huge to be able to walk around looking like that.'

My answer was simple - I like to have fun in life and make people smile. I do what I do 'cos I do what I do and I do it 'cos I want to and don't care what other people will think!

Life is to be lived and enjoyed so why not! =)

Hope you're all getting a good laugh out of this! And now, after just over 24 hours of existence, the 'Hulk Boonvarine' as I just now called it has had it's day..let's go shave..

=)
