So, my friend Kathryn Miller is a supporting lead actor in 'The Covenant' in Jerusalem: a musical production that covers the History of the Hebrew people from Abraham until the Modern State of Israel.  I told Kathryn I would go this Thurday night.  PROBLEM... I was out late the night before and had about 5 hours of sleep, so when I got home from school, I decided to take a nap and accidently set my alarm clock for the wrong time.  I woke up naturally at 6:43pm... The Covenant started at 8pm... and the theatre in Jerusalem is about 1 1/2 hours away (door-to-door).  I almost canceled, but I don't like going back on my word, so... I bit the bullet and hired a cab to take me to the bus station, got on the first bus, then hired another cab to take me to the theatre.  IT WAS SOOO WORTH IT!!! I showed only about 20 minutes late, and had to sneak into the theatre (don't worry, I paid afterwards).  I was so impressed with the production.  Kathryn and the rest of the cast were incredible!  The music, story-line, script, costumes... everything was spectacular.  Afterward, Kathryn invited me to hang out with her and some of the crew at the Blue Hole, the oldest Pub in Jerusalem.  I ordered a pizza because I hadn't eaten since lunch... BAD IDEA!  The Blue Hole, but the pizza tasted like it was just as old as the building.  I will never eat there again!  YUCK!!!  Oh well, I had an amazing time, and I am so glad everything worked out.
