It looks like starting Thursday things will start to get on a regular schedule. I found out that I will be working in the moadon, which is like the ulpan common area. There's a dinning room where we eat dinner every night but we hang out there too because that's where the internet is and a patio area right outside. Then the classrooms are attached to that but you have to walk outside to get to them. I guess we (me and who ever else i work with, not sure who it is yet) are in charge of cleaning up that area in the morning and then getting dinner ready for the ulpan at night. The other choices of girls jobs were laundry or kitchen (which i think means cleaning dishes and tables in the main dining hall). Apparently I got the best job. One of the Kibbutzniks was saying that the other day and Nava, the Ulpan house mother said she likes to pick people she likes for this one because you work with her. She also emphasised that nothing we do is a rush just like you know take your time, do some stuff, take a 20 min break, do some stuff. Also seems like we get a break every two hours. Break when the classes have a break, break for lunch, long break in the afternoon. We'll see how it actually is in two days.
So the way the whole system works is that there are two groups for school alef (me), and bet/gimmel. Alpha goes to school sun, tues, thurs and works mon, wed, fri and the other group does the opposite. I don't know if that means you don't really see the other group a lot or what but there's a lot of time in afternoon/night to see everyone i guess too. Going to enjoy the last couple days of relaxing before the real work starts...
