Salimos a Meson David: We go out to Meson David

So after the presentations, we took a little respite and then we met at the Paral-lel metro stop and walked to Meson David, a restaurants made for groups who want tapa-like plates to share. I was a huge fan of the different types of tortilla that were offered, but a little put off by some of the meat. For the most part, though, it was a way to end the day on a good note before we all take a week off for spring break starting...NOW!

The waiter checks out a picture of himself with Theda, Sean's sister who is visiting...he fell in love with her immediately...gave her a flower during the course of dinner...it was basically a classic night out with CUarch. haha.
The group...in a laughing fit, for obvious reasons!
Me and Tom--WE'RE GOING TO GERMANY TOMORROW!!!!!

Yes, I live with this kid! Hehe--Oh Rob...(this lemon is probably going to be used as a candle in our apartment at some point...we're basically pyros...don't tell the landlord!
"BOB-We have to get up at 6 am to go to the airport! We CAN'T go out tonight!"-Tom

Tom and I went to studio to get everything we needed and I chatted with Mike, mom's friend from HS, who has been helping us out tons with plans for our trip to Germany for break. I'm beyond excited! Time for bed...tomorrow might be stressful!

El proyecto incompleto: the incomplete project

Ended up being in studio until 8 am, at which point I was hungry from only having eaten a few saltines for dinner. We have a lot done, but not nearly enough. I had to fight with the printer because it wasn't printing to the margins that it was set to on the computer. Then, about halfway through printing our analyses, the printer ran out of ink, so I had to spend another hour figuring out how to shrink the photoshop document to print the correct margins on an 8.5 by 11 sheet...which never did end up correct, but it was 3 or 4 am and I couldn't keep fighting the machine, so we just finished on what we had and continued the other work.
Felipe got the model done. Vic and I had to rearrange the template that we were given to fill. We were missing info that we had planned around, so while our info may or may not have been sufficient, it wasn't blown up to fit the template because we had actually planned to have more to our presentation than we ended up with. We presented anyhow, but I was disappointed in myself. We are definitely going to have to make sure we complete the template so that our project reads the way it is intended to. I like our project, even though it breaks the rules about building in the center of the plaza (which I was originally not a fan of), but the presentation of it just didn't explain it.
Just gotta suck it up and move on.
We're going out to dinner as a group tonight and then....GERMANY in the AM!
