I decided for this post/workshop to join a club, and especially one I’ve been really interested in lately, Hillel. I heard a lot about it before I started college, and after the recommendation of one of my friends who joined, I stopped by to sign up and see what was going on. There was a lot going on inside, and as I walked in a really nice girl invited me to come in an join them for their weekly session on Wednesday at 12. she was telling me that every Wednesday at 12, a bunch of girls have a learning session with one of the leaders on topics relating to either the holiday coming up, or just about topics relating to Jewish girls, weekly Torah (bible) portion…etc. They also have free pizza which was also nice. The week I went they were discussing topics of forgiveness right before Rosh Hashana. I really enjoyed the time I was able to stay there because I felt really included and involved, but unfortunately I don’t think I would continue coming as I have class at 12:25 and I wouldn’t be able to stay for the entire learning session, and I feel it isn’t fair to those who can to have to deal with me leaving after less than 20 minutes. They did add me to their chat where they update us on what events they have going on, and just a place to get to talk with a bunch of the girls who are a part of the club. I’m really excited to see and join other activities they have throughout the semester!
I wasn’t able to take a picture at the session, but I have the text message from the chat inviting us to come join.
