First week at MIT

The first day was orientation so we mostly just spoke and drew pictures about ourselves.  On the second  day we went to the horticulture department to buy New Zealand native plants to sketch.  When we returned back to school we had to draw the plant without taking the pencil of the paper which was easier than I thought it would be.  On the third day we had to do drawings where you couldn't look at the paper while you drew which I thought was hard until they asked us to draw with our eyes shut only touching the plant that was hard.  On the fourth day we read about John Wolseley afterwards we did some paintings outside with mud which I thought was kind of strange but after that we went back inside to paint with ink which was fun.  And on the fifth day I made this blog.
