Sin camera: Without a camera

I neglected to mention that my camera still isn't working. I have to get new batteries and then I can try to figure out what is wrong with it, so if you are sensing a lack of pictures...you're not alone...

Listos para desenar?: Ready to design?

Catalan class rocks my socks. I love the process of learning a new language, and the different techniques and ways to learn and to memorize that only occur in language classes. It's really cool that it's just Gisela and me in the class. We have class from 12:30 to about 1:30, when we have a break and the two of us go to the cafe down the hall to get a snack or cafe con leche, then we head back to class for another hour, before heading down the street to the Urquinaona metro stop which we take to Espanya where we change to the green line and get off at Zona Universitaria for history class with the rest of the group. Tuesdays aren't so bad at all!
History was fine today. Felipe cut out the pieces of the buildings at the school woodshop and Victoria and I spent a good 2 or 3 hours setting them up and glueing them all down to the board, which seemed like a huge waste of time to me, but it looks good so no complaints, I suppose. I don't have much of a design for the block to show tomorrow. Just a basic height pattern. as a means of creating a slow increase/decrease in building heights in order to appease the existing buildings...that Jean Nouvell building is a huge pain.
