Uh oh! I'm so nervous for my upcoming bar mitzvah on March 24th! My next blog post will be scheduled for the date OF my bar mitzvah. I'm really concentrated on it right now, so I'm not really able to work on posts very much right now... But I'll try my best!
Also, I'm sorry that most of my posts lately have been about me and my upcoming bar mitzvah, but it is really hard to get it off my mind right now.
I have been trying to avoid the thought of having my bar mitzvah a week from now, but it is terribly hard. To help me, I think how very bright it will be afterwards.
First of all, I'm going to be a teenager! Yes, the posts you have been reading have been coming from a 12-year-old. Teenager you say? Yes! Now I can be stereotyped as very moody and crazy! Delightful! Also, as some might now, people get a large wad of checks. It is polite to send checks in multiples of 18, as it is considered a lucky Jewish number. I have already received a couple of checks, but all of my checks coming from family and friends will be collected on the date of my bar mitzvah. I have ALREADY gotten a lot of money... and not to mention how much but... - cough - over a thousand! - cough cough - It probably doesn't seem as much to adults, but to teens, it's a whole different perspective. Imagine how much I'll have AFTERWARDS!
To be completely honest, I am excited for my bar mitzvah, but nervousness has wrecked the experience. However, every time I rehearse with my rabbi, my stage fright skills seem to be more controlled. I'm learning how to deal with messing up, because I am awfully hard on myself.
So my question for this week is...
Have you ever been to a bar/bat mitzvah?
