well we are finally really busy. with only two classes, its actually hard to get free time. but our weekends are starting to fill up, some students travel to neighboring countries but for the rest of us, those who are "financially lacking" just go to paris, so not a bad alternative. This pictures are from last saturday, when charlie and colleen and I went to the Modern Art Museum, where there are skateboarders and graffiti on the outside and no crowds and awesome art on the inside and free. Then we went to the tokyo center, right next door, which is just a neat place with things that are sure to be cool 5 years from now. Then colleen and I walked about 5 miles to where her new apartment is going to be. But this carefree day, this walking from art museum, under the tower and threw saturday morning markets, under the metro cars and threw hundred year old apartments to visit a friends new house, THIS is what i'm going to miss about being here, just BEING here. and seeing these things, going to the boulangerie every morning to get bread and the market to get fruit. I know that there are things like this in America, but they are hard to get to and expensive, so I will do my best to enjoy all the living i have left to do here, and strongly recommend that if anyone ever has the chance to travel abroad, or knows someone who is thinking about it, no matter the cost, do it.
