The Land of Cranes

I HAVE INTERNET!

Good gracious, I have been unwired all week and finally I am back online! Yay!

Alright, last Friday, my good friend Kathryn came to visit from France till Tuesday. We had a blast exploring the city, site seeing, eating bad fish and chips, scoping out cool clubs, and ended it all with an awesome show – Speedmarket Avenue and Saturday Looks Good To Me. Having her here really normalized me and I feel rejuvenated.

Saturday Looks Good To Me

This week was midterm week. The British grading system is scary if you are not used to it. I received a whopping 63%. Fortunately, that qualifies as a “B”. Truly, the hardest part about school here is navigating my instructor’s expectations. I am often finding out what I was expected to be doing after the fact. I think next semester will be more fluid being that I will have better understanding of this school system.

This weekend I have cooped myself up to get some work done on my big project. I have three weeks to make it runway ready for the fashion show. I haven’t started sewing yet. I feel a week of all-nighters on the horizon. One thing I do really like about school here is the ten-week semester. I often get bored and tired of a class halfway through with the 16 week semesters in Kzoo.

So that is an update. Happy Valentines day!
