update...

Its been a week and a half since the last block period (when we go to University for face-to-face-time), and I find myself still not settled in. My minds all over the place, when it should be in a bit of a rest period. All assignments are in and block week was good. We're currently trying to get a few sets of plans approved. Two of them need "departures"...consent from the neighbours so that we can build over the building lines. That takes time. Time on one project that we do not have. Since we got the project its been go GO gO! Client: "We need this done like yesterday?"...not their real words but you gey the picture. Not our fault you first went to an architect who didn't totally understand what you wanted.

My employer is a true problem solver-therapist-councilor-architect. Times are hard...and you take the business as it comes...trying hard not to put yourself between a rock and a hardER place. But work is scarce and you're not sure what lies ahead and around the corner. So you take jobs from very difficult clients, sometimes, not all are so difficult.

Anyway, I was really looking forward to measuring up at the new job in Llandudno...but now I have to make my way to South Peninsula for more consent forms.


Our lecturers are in Barcelona! I really hope I get the chance in my lifetime...even if you aren't a fan...like Julie (employer) says...you have to see Le Familia Segrada...Gaudi.
I hope they're taking lots of photos!

Adios :-)
