Hi, I am May14… a twenty year old girl, a translator, a writer, and a curious human being. I am also the only Israeli here, or so I am told. I love reading, but since I bought my computer half a year ago (never could afford it before) I mostly read e-books. My friends tell me I am crazy and it's impossible to keep reading them for more then few minutes. Well, I think differently.
I translate all kinds of materials from English to Hebrew and vice versa, and write articles for an Israeli web site. I love my work, but I find it hard to get enough of it. Fortunately I still live in my parents' house so I don’t really have many expenses.
I used to take an interest in politics when I was a pre teen but I grew out of it. Generally speaking, I don’t believe in politicians. I think that most of them are good examples of what people can become, if they are not careful…
I have many different hobbies. Classic music, nineteenth century literature, cats, international relationships, etc…
I am a deeply religious person, so I find this site to be a true breath of fresh air. I am repelled by the profanity and rudeness existing in almost any other forum.
I like speaking my mind, and I like writing in English, so I hope to enjoy my visits here.

Great to have you here, may14. I find debating with folks outside the US is often a very enlightening experience. Thanks for joining!
