Advice to...whoever wants it

So after my adventures these last couple of days, I decided i would share a helpful list of things that would help anyone wanting to travel, ok mostly if you wanted to travel to Israel, but some could apply elsewhere:
    1. At a bus stop always sit on the side of the road going in the direction you want to go, if it's facing the opposite way it means the bus has already come from there and you'll have to ride around for an hour until you realize you have to change bus routes to get back where you wanted, or until they kick you off at their last stop, then you know for sure you have to change routes.
    2. Don't stay at the new palm hostel across from Damascus gate, unless you are a boy or in a group, and don't care about what's in your luggage... or have no luggage
    3. Pandora does not work outside the USA... sad.
    4. Sometimes places close by about 5 or 6, even though their website says 11pm
    5. Don't eat your cold leftovers for breakfast at the bus stop on the way to the Hebrew U, they have microwaves in the common areas
    6. Don't have batteries in your luggage, they will search your bag, open the package, and delay your luggage
    7. Going to libraries to research is the same all over the world: you still fall asleep half the time and end up only getting about half of what you want done
    8. Become a boy, its basically better (definitely easier) everywhere exept maybe the airport
    9. Find a Genie so they will magically make you able to speak hebrew and arabic fluently
    10. Sometimes they food right from the street guys isn't always the most sanitary, don't inspect it, just eat :)
    Don't worry, if I ever discover any more I will let you know.
