So, school just started for me this past Tuesday. I love it! It is going to be a good semester, but I will be busy; I am taking 18 credits which translates into 27 hours in class each week. So far I have had an English class about Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings trilogy (which will be a-maz-ing!), Blacksmithing (I'm SUPER excited for this class), a history class about the modern Studio Craft movement in America (I foresee this class being a lot of work, but it will be good to learn the history of Crafts as an art), Metal major studio (I need to take this class every semester until I graduate, it is a rotating class of skills; this semester I have a new teacher, and I have high hopes for this class, I think the change in profs will be very beneficial for me) and Weaving (most of my life I have wanted to learn to weave, loom work is tricky to set up, but once the prep-work is finished, it is very relaxing I have found). Monday I have Intro to Sociology, I don't know what to expect yet, but I am excited. Once I get working on some projects, I'll try to make the time to post pictures here.
