done

this is my last night abroad. ive flipped flopped all day wondering whether or not i really want to come home at all. but ive decided i do. its time to take off. my plane leaves at eight in the morning tomorrow. i'm going to go and pack soon. i meticulously packed my bag three days ago in hopes that i wouldnt have to mess with it much. but at the israel airport they tagged me as a suspiscious character and i was searched five times. they made me take my whole bag out and went over every last article of clothing to make sure it didnt have powder explosive on it. then they interrogated me for a while, made me walk through a metal detecter six times, then i was escorted by an armed guard to the plane itself. i dont believe i'll be going back there for a while. trips over though now, heres some things ive done. Ive..
