I’m a fourth year architecture major at the University of Arkansas (Go Hogs!). I’ll be spending the semester in Italy, as I am participating in our school’s study abroad program in Rome.

“If I look at some excellent statue, I say within my heart: "When will you be able to remove the excess from a block of marble and reveal so lovely a figure hidden therein? When will you know how to mix different colors and spread them over a canvas or a wall and represent all visible objects by their means, like a Michelangelo, a Raphael, or a Titian?”
-Galileo Galilei “Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems"

...well, the beginning of our nation's history, anyway. These photos are from my walk along the Freedom Trail, in Boston, which links historic sites, many of which are associated with the Revolution and early days in the US. The trail starts at Boston Common, and then just follow the red brick road...or rather, line, on the sidewalk, which leads the "three" mile journey. I was exhausted by the end...... read more

Just a friendly reminder that it's not ALL fun and games over here... With all the amazing places that I’ve been able to go and all the awesome things we’ve seen, sometimes it’s hard to remember that our first priority over here is class. Since the end of the semester is right around the corner, things are really beginning to pick up here. I have an upcoming paper and two projects due soon for classes, plus tests in a few weeks, as well as the final critique of our studio projects…which means I have quite a bit of work to do.
