New Semester

We've started out new semester now. Our first week we went to a lot of le Corbusier buildings, Villa Savoye was the highlight. Wikipedia le Corbusier because he is one of the most influencial architects of the 20th century. But we also learned about Frank Lloyd Wright, Alvaro Aalto, Oscar Neimeier and Utzon and some other architects of modern architecture. We visited a lot of these buildings in the Paris area and had a pretty laid back week our first week back. It was fun because Emily was still here and got to see some of these buildings. But she left on sunday and this week has been spent making a tour out of dried spaghetti noodles that has to be 1 meter tall. It is an annoying project but in teams of three we are building it slowly, ill post some pictures of it finished later. This semester I will post on this blog weekly, because i didnt really do that much last semester and i know some people wanted to hear more about what was going on.
