Tele-Shabbat and other fun happenings in Hoboken

May was an exciting month at MH Hoboken with intellectual discussions, poker nights, and of course  shabbat dinners, including the much anticipated tele-shabbat.  When I first heard about the idea for the tele-shabbat I was admittedly a littlle hesitant, as were my roommates, as to how this would turn out.  It turned out to be a great event despite the technical difficulties.  All of our guests loved being able to interact with other houses via video-chat and they have aready asked if we will be doing this again anytime soon (I certainly hope so!).   A huge shout out to Stephanie from MH Providence for putting this all together, this was a huge success!  I finally learned to play poker thanks to our poker night and even though I lost my ten dollars I stayed in the game for a while (I wasn't even the first one out!) and had a great time.  We have some fun events planned for June including a camping trip (which I won't be attending due to family obligations for my brothers graduation and another brother's wedding), movie night, and of course shabbat dinners.
