Tuesday June 7th

Bonjour everyone! 

 I asked about my Internet today and they haven't started to fix it yet so I told them to please hurry. Today we had our first day of class at Mod'Art. It is such a cool school they have a room full of mannequins and work rooms. We went over all of the guidelines for the class and I am so excited to get started on the projects. We will have to style models and take them around Paris to do different photo shoots and we aren't allowed to just tourist spots. Then we had a guest speaker who is a very accomplished man in the fashion world. He has been the president of many companies such as Dior and Louis Vuitton! He lectured for about an hour and I took a lot of notes. We are going to get some art supplies today, I already brought all of mine with me so I probably wont need to buy anything which is nice. We are also going to a thrift store to get some items for the photo shoots and then to a famous street full of couture stores in Paris. Tonight we will be attending the Mod'Art fashion show. We are taking the metro there and we were told to dress up! I am so excited to go to my first live fashion show in Paris!!!! I have realized that this class schedule is going to be a lot of work but it is work that I am really excited to get started on and have in later years for my portfolio! I am one of the only fashion design students here most of the others are fashion merchandising so they want to work in the business side of fashion. I found that really interesting and I am thinking that they will not like these projects as much as I will :) I am on my lunch break right now, before we go out shopping. I have been waking up in the night at about 2 to 3 every night wide awake, I guess I am not really on Paris time yet! It has been raining here all day but I have a very cute umbrella with me and I packed warm clothes so it doesn't really bother me. Anyway that is about everything that is going on today! I miss you all and will hopefully get to talk to you soon! Please pray that they will fix my Internet and phone asap or else I am going to turn into the mooch that uses all of my new friends technology :) Au Revior!
