Oh my goodness! I laughed so hard when you cut to text! So great :)
I was going to do a video for my drawing (I was giving away a basket), because I haven't done one in ages, and try to figure out how to somehow make one of my dogs do it.
Man, as a very unemotional speaker, I'm quite facinated as to how Americans, and especially American girls, contort their faces and voices when they speak. After studying it, I still don't get it! All I "get" is that it's cool to sound like you're asking a question when ending a statement. ..know what I'm talking about?
@ID Thanks! I try to make things entertaining. Too bad my video conked out!
@Nape Eat your goodies and think of us!
@PopJudaica Happy Purim to you, too!
@Amber I was SO BUMMED that it conked. Rawr. It was still blinking and everything. I think something with my card is broken. Did you do a video or no?
@Jacob :P
@.... I don't know what your Hebrew says. Ani lo mevinah! Something about being young? Anyway, the always ending everything in a question, even when it's not, is a definite Midwestern thing. In Nebraska, we all do it. I don't know if it's purely an American thing. And my face? I'm just a very expressive speaker :) Always have been!
"I don't know what your Hebrew says"- The "humble" Solomon (Shlomo) son of Raphael of the house of Chriqui (Shriki), s"t (Pure Sepharadi).
"I don't know if it's purely an American thing."- All I know is Israelis also do it, though they're just copying Americans.
"I'm just a very expressive speaker"- VERY. Even the first 30 seconds were...extremely innovative (from a taking in of the lips in the "b" of "but", to the sympathetic eyebrow expression when saying "all 50"!).
I began this blog in April/May 2006 shortly after converting to Judaism under Reform auspices in Lincoln, Neb., as a way to discuss my journey. After all, the Jewish journey doesn't end with conversion, it's where it starts! This blog winds its way through a variety of cities -- Lincoln, Washington D.C., Chicago, Storrs (CT), Teaneck (NJ), and Denver -- as well as a variety of jobs. I trekked through Reform Judaism to Conservative to Orthodoxy while living in Chicago and converted Orthodox on January 1, 2010. I've been married and divorced since my Orthodox conversion and would proudly say I'm denominationally "Underconstructionist."
The purpose of this blog is to share my story, my struggles, my ups and my downs, and to connect with others about anything and everything Jewish and social media. Write me, talk to me, comment, and be well!

I fast forwarded your "ktivat ha-ptakim" :)

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I am sitting here with tears in my eyes from laughing so hard! That was a great video! I loved the text at the end. :)
Cool video, Chaviva. I was actually holding my breath just a little at the end there. Nice job all around with the whole contest. :)
