Shabbat and Channukah update
Dec. 16th, 2006 06:39 pmShabbat was fun. On Friday night we had a girl's singing meal, and I actually got to teach ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
boroparkpyro's Yaq Ribon tune. So it has now made it to Penn, but only to the Penn women, and most of them don't sing in front of guys...but hopefully people will remember it and sing it on their own.
There was also a girl's tisch, and even after that and talking to A.A. in the lobby of North for a while, I still got back early. Thus, I got to read and go to sleep at a reasonable hour.
I mashed for the davening shift, except that at 11 CJC was in the middle of the haftarah, so thus I got to daven mussaf there. They did the hechi-kedusha, where you say the first 3 blessings out loud together, and then everyone does their own silent amidah. They also did this at shacharit as well. I'm more of a fan of full chazarah, so whenever I lead, I do the full chazarah.
Then we had my lunch, which was fun and had a lot of singing and socialization. And deli-roll. You can't forget the deli-roll.
Though it ate up my afternoon, so I only read in my room for a half hour before setting up seudah shlisheet.
I led mincha. I did a full repetition. Which meant that I had to say the uber-long al ha nisim. I hadn't comprehended this until last night, so I was thinking of it in mincha nusach when I said it for the previous davenings and meals. I managed to do it okay and not stumble on the words too much. It's not like they are particularly hard words, but I don't know the text that well.
Then there was seudah shlisheet, and I gave bentsching to B.R., because this was his last shabbat as "shalshuddis guy." He did a good job as shalshuddis guy.
And now I'm trying to frantically finish a kippah before I leave on Tuesday, since it needs to be given tolevana_b so she can give it to Shlomo when she goes to Israel. I'm 4 rows from starting the Hebrew letters, which will be 8 rows big, except the qoof (ק), which is slightly bigger (and the yuds(י) don't go down all the way) and then another row afterwards. It'll be really nice and amusing and I'll take a picture when I'm done, so you can see what it says.
Now I have the Channukah Olympics tonight! Whee!
