Apr.11.2013 Make New Friends but Keep the Old In Israel, I often come across groups of friends who have known each other since grade school/high school or the army, and have stayed in close touch. This kind of friendship within a group is common in Israel because many people tend to stay in their home town/ land and they meet on a...	Mar.14.2012 My Favourite Sex Scene in Literaure Just at first, in the dark hallway, it had given Dottie rather a funny feeling to be tiptoeing up the stairs only two nights after Kay’s wedding to a room right across from Harald’s old room, where the same thing had happened to Kay.

For a few weeks I've been attending and reading the book and bringing snacks and taking notes and just being really dutiful.
