One Week of Classes Down...



Hopefully the title doesn't sound bitter, as I actually like all of my classes. It's a fairly undemanding schedule that allows us to take weekend trips and, most of all, enjoy our (free) time here. Next year is definitely going to be tough to adjust back to the workload at UT. Anywho, here is my schedule...

Monday
Urban Design Lecture_11:00-13:00
Studio_13:30-17:00

Tuesday
History of Polish Architecture_13:00-14:30
Freehand Drawing_15:00-18:00

Wednesday
Studio_13:30-17:00

Thursday
NO CLASSES!

Friday
Studio_9:00-13:00

I think the class I am most excited about is History of Polish Architecture with Professor Jacek Czubinski. Instead of having a boring lecture inside, we take walking tours for every class and see and experience the architecture. It's incredible to think that most of the buildings in Poland are older than our country...I am also looking forward to the studio class. I really enjoy our professor(Krzysztof Bojanowski) and the project for the semester. Our assignment is to basically "revitalize a riverfront" in Krakow and design the public spaces on the site.

It was definitely a relief to get the first week of classes out of the way and know where every class is. Also, it seems like they give us vague directions on purpose...finding our way around the architecture building and city has forced us to become big boys and girls. Now, if only we can get Stephen away from his steady diet of candy and coke...
