I had just graduated from high school, and has been accepted to Rutgers University, and my parents thought it would be a great time to pick up the family and GTFO of the country. Of course, since I had finished high school one year advanced, I was a minor and couldn't really stay behind. But, you know, I'm not bitter or anything. Having been born in Israel, I suppose it was about time I went and got to know the land of my birth. How else would I have developed my love/hate relationship with Israel, wasted five years of my life, and thrown my career plans forever off track? But hey, I got another language out of the deal! But, you know, I'm not bitter or anything. ;p
