Hey all,
Why are Mondays always the longest day of the week?
Not that today was bad, I'm just tired for it only being 6:00! My workshop went well, I'm up on Wednesday, so we'll see how that goes.
I got more pictures back today and several of them turned out pretty well, it's kind of hard to understand the assignments sometimes, since they're given in slightly broken English and they're a bit vague to being with. We did a bit of a walk today to take some outdoor pictures, which I hope turn out, since we had some really cool places to shoot.
One of the places we stopped used to be the site of a huge statue of Stalin, but it was taken down after the fall of Communism, and is now a huge granite platform that overlooks the city. The locals have taken it over as a makeshift skatepark and we got some (hopefully) really neat shots of skateboarders. There are stairs and platforms and ramps pieced together from broken bits of granite and marble and it's just a really cool place. I'll have to post some photos when I get them. Jan (pronounced Yahn), our instructor called the skaters "smart boys" and kept telling us to move in closer to get the really good pictures. Me, I like to keep my distance from flying skateboards, but I think I got some decent ones anyway.
Tomorrow is three hours of lecture (yay...) followed by some grocery shopping, and then a reading in the evening. They sure do keep us busy!
Love always,
Em
