Masks!

Its finally sunny!!! After 3 straight days of rain i now realize how much i love the sun. Today i had class at 930. We began the day breaking into 2 groups, one group does pottery and one makes masks. I made a mask and learned about the meanings, views, and uses of them throughout many cultures. We coated our faces in vaseline and then had a partner put plaster strips over. It was very fun and we will be decorating and transforming the identity. After lunch we regrouped and learned about first peoples values and lessons. We then had a computer seminar, which was pretty boring, where they explained how our class website works. I was feeling very lazy after not working out in two day plus i still had vaseline stuck to my face, so i went for a run. I just did a little run and hit the sauna for a bit, and then squeezed in dinner. Dinner is only from 5-7 and its easy to miss though not the end of the world. There are markets and cafes open to 11. I chilled with some friends later and then decided i should do some work. I am having a lot of fun, and have been getting good at skateboarding(no injurys yet). Its very nice to roll right to class without having to deal with hills.
