1.  April 3rd at 6:20pm during the chocolate Passover Seder

2.  The sounds that are furthest away from me are sounds of people talking from the hall.

3.  The sounds that are at a medium range from me are a few girls at the end of the table whispering to one another and the sound of someone texting on their phone.  From the sound of it, that person was really pressing down hard on those buttons.

4.  The sounds that are closest to me are the Rabbi and the students saying one section of the Haggadah (the passover prayer book) in unison.

5.  It was very noisy with everyone talking at once and it made me excited for the holidays.

6. joyous

7.  The three sounds that are essential to the environment are the students and Rabbi reading in unison, the person texting, and the two girls whispers.
