Foreign Learning

Well the first week of school is almost over and I think I'm starting to understand what it's like over here. They teach a little differently across the pond. The way I explain it is that there are two course directors for my BA Graphic Design program and one of them acts like my advisor, his name's Jim. Jim gives me projects I have to do and I have to meet with him at least once a week. So during the day I am to work on these projects or attend seminars, lectures, or workshops they offer which are apparently all optional and some can only be attended if you sign up in advance. My project now is working on a book. Each project is pretty individualized unless it involves working in a group. So Jim suggested I design my book around something about London. I still have to think of an idea... any suggestions? I've been going to multiple museums so that's fun and I plan on walking around more this weekend and taking more pictures for inspiration. It's hard getting inspiration in the shady part of town where my apartment is hah but central London is only a 5 minute tube ride away. I'm meeting up with James and the Calvin kids tomorrow so that should be fun to see some familiar faces again!
