פו פז 1

In order to further entertain you I have decided to update you on my lovely faux paz when I attempt to speak Hebrew.

Number 1: My address is 12 Rehov Nili, Knisah Gimmel, Apt. 16. For the first two weeks I was here, I told everyone it was Knisiah Gimmel. Which means church. as opposed to entrance.

Number 2: I was translating my grad school application and got to the last requirement which was קורות חיים מלאים.  Translated literally this means "Full Life Story". I proceeded to freak out a little because I did not know what they wanted me to write or how long it was supposed to be or what part of my life they wanted to know about. After complaining about it to my friend for about ten minutes, she turned to me and said "Kfi, they just want your resume" Oops.
