Morristown Yeshivah: Time & Again

foreign [Music] there was a certain excitement you know dorming it was the first time I dormed away from home [Music] my first impressions were that it's a very big campus outside is surrounded by lots of green grass and trees I wanted to go to a place that was a little more quiet or a place where you can study without any outside interruptions when I entered into the South downstairs into Ferris I saw some really serious learning and then I accidentally went upstairs to Tom Craig I saw so many friendly people and very interesting learning and nice rabbis Morristown being one campus no matter what program you're in no matter your age you're always surrounded by people and you can always talk to people it was small and they were just a half a dozen bedrooms upstairs but for 15 Ballroom it was it was a very intimate space a group that was very much United remember the cedar negunim we would sing songs Shabba Center at the beginning of Shabbos it was beautiful of course what I just all the Nostalgia comes back every time we would finish a mimer or a city I would have this stick to go to the mailer every time speaking with him you would think that he'd just learned to see her literally just with you in order for any individual to have an impactful day learning Gamora you have to be able to interact with others those interactions while they started out on an intellectual level they developed into an emotional interaction as well I had a classmate of Mendel schneerson and it was Hanukkah if I recall correctly so chronic had also a particular warmth because he went to light candles and he decided to start singing and suddenly the whole base matters of maybe 70 80 guys over singing it was just so beautiful it was spontaneous special thing I picked up here was really I think the ability to go to go from the gemara take it all the way down to something we can practically apply to yourself into daily life but Robert Shapiro taught us sometimes a task could seem very big and daunting you break it down and you look how much I accomplished so far it gives you the kayak and the excitement and the encouragement to keep going right there I could finish an entire Miss after and not only one myself that I could finish two so that's something that really showed me what what talents I have if I put myself to it with the helps of the teachers truly we did not waste a minute between fabrangans between shurin between travus between working on the artist before giving out a kovitz it's one thing to learn about another thing to learn how to live it here at Morristown or Hashem we don't really learn what we've been taught how to actualize and bring it all the way down into what we do on a daily basis here it gave us an opportunity to really develop ourselves and our connections with each other and the friendships I made there were very profound I must say it was my best years of my life [Music]
