I know, I know. I'm asking a lot of you, my faithful blog readers, but this one is seriously BIG, and I need your help FAST and in BIG numbers.
I'm a graduate student without income and without funds to call my own. If I could attend the Second Annual Jewish Bloggers Convention in Israel on my own accord, you know I'd be there. Israel and Blogging all in one shot? That's my dream vacation. Unfortunately, right now I'm just slated to watch from a computer somewhere with Tuvia, chatting with fellow bloggers in the little chat room while all the in-person attendees get to share in the joys of LIVE blogging goodness.
LUCKILY, there's a contest. Yes, a contest for someone, some special and one-of-a-kind blogger to snag a free trip to Israel for the conference, sponsored by Nefesh B'Nefesh. In addition to the free ticket, I'd be blogging about one of the families making Aliyah on the Nefesh B'Nefesh flight. All you have to do is go to the website, vote for me, and write about it on your blog -- make it happen, for me. The flight would be Monday, September 7, 2009.
What's in it for you? Israel tchotchkes and lots of photos of the entire experience.

Done!http://susqhb.blogspot.com/2009/08/sending-chaviva-to-israel.html
Wish I could do more to help.
I posted your plea on my blog but I can't say that I have too many Jewish bloggers reading.
Anyway, if I could've nominated you, here's what I would've said:
Chavi brings a unique multi-layered perspective to blogging the Jewish experience. She blogs about popular culture, academic inquiry, and her ongoing personal experience of Judaism. She would add much to the diversity at this bloggers conference.
Good Luck!!
Good luck. We are waiting for you here... (:
I love you guys! Thank you!
See you soon, Yoav ;)
