Ever wonder what we do all day here on the Kibbutz Chadar Ochell? Here is a seder yom (order of the day) for a typical seder (day) on Workshop, along with some commentary.
9:00 - Kima (Wake up)
9:15 - Aruchat Boker (Morning meal)
Served buffet style. They have yet to add any new fixin's to the omelette bar despite my request; so much for Habonim Dror's pillar of actualization!
10:00 - Avodah (Farming)
It's hard to get plants to grow in sand, but we make it work.
10:30 - Kibbud (Snack)
A well-deserved break from a morning of labour.
10:45 - Peulot (Debates)
A heated battle of wits. The best debaters get to go to Veida for the championship.
12:30 - Aruchat Tzohorayeem (Afternoon meal)
If you thought the choices at the omelette bar were disappointing, don't even get me started on the lunch time panini bar!
1:15 - Zman Balagan (LARPing time (Live Action Role Playing time))
The most beloved time of the day here on Workshop. I posted a picture of us LARPing earlier in the blog, hopefully I'll have some more pictures soon.
2:30 - Zman Habonim (Habonim time)
A structure for a validating process of values.
3:15 - Kibbud Dos (Second snack)
3:30 - Zman Languages (Language time)
You get a choice between Hebrew, Yiddish and Esperanto lessons.
4:30 - Zman Chofshi (Free time)
6:30 - Aruchat Erev (Evening meal)
I don't want to be too negative, but don't think I haven't realized it's just the same four desserts alternating on a four day cycle!
7:15 - Tochnit Erev (Evening entertainment)
An elaborate activity run for the Workshoppers by the Kibbutzers with costumed characters, skits and activities, always ending with some educational message.
9:30 - Lila Tov (Sleep)
So that's the schedule for most days on Workshop, unless we go on a field trip, like one of our many Menchie's runs. Other Workshoppers may offer a different interpretation of what we do when messaging their friends and families, but this blog will always have unbiased, reliable information.
It's time for dinner, so bye for now.
