Steven I Weiss wants me to write about myself. What is the purpose of my life? The meaning behind every action? I hope to eventually reveal that to you all later…but for now. About me. I take the stage. Finally.

I’ve blogged on www.maialazar.com for almost four years. Luke Ford was my “moral leader”, Cathy Seipp is my mother, and my college is ERC at UCSD. I’m seventeen years old, and I love Judaism, history, literature, Russian music, good sushi, and water sports. I was raised Reform Jewish, had a Bat Mitzvah, and a confirmation and then one day I was tapped on the shoulder by Mr. Weiss to contribute to such a nice blue and white site: CampusJ!

So I hope you all tolerate my writing…I’m no Hemingway, and am honored to make any contribution to this new project. I wish you all a Shana Tovah (was I too late?) and if you have annoying professors, email me!

I can be reached at mlazar -at- campusj.com .
