Day 19

This mornings ceramics crit went well. Its weird having due dates not just exploring and then coming up with the best work you can. Unfortionitly resulting in making less skilled work with not up to my par craftsmen ship due to still figuring out everything here so hopefully it will get better. I'm just not use to being on such a strict time schedule. Makes it hard to experiment and learn processes so you can make the best piece possible when you have a week plus a million other things scheduled outside of that. After class I needed a break for all the scheduling and guidelines so I went on a three hour hike off into well not really sure were above the school was my direction. Needed to run away for a while and just get lost so I did. I found a little shop with a very cute little girl and enjoyed just rolling a fanta bottle around with her. Then got some large jucie olives and sat at on a stone bench and wrote while nibbling on the olives. As I was just relaxing and enjoying a bit of freedom reality hit and I had to run back down to have dinner with the doners of the school. The free wine was tastey and it was cool to meet some of the cortona experience people but my mine was somewhere ealse.
