By the end of week one after visiting a bunch of different lectures, and sorting though credits with the study abroad and course advisors here on campus and back at the University of Guelph I finally decided on which courses I will be taking here at Lincoln. I will be taking Recreation and Tourism Management of Protected Areas and an Introduction to Earth Science class along with two third year Landscape Architecture classes; Innovative Design Studio and Design Theory. So although the course load will be a bit heavier than I wanted while I was here I will have an extra credit which means I won’t need to take two electives next year when I am back in Guelph!
For the Innovative Design Studio course I am taking we are doing one design project throughout the semester. On Thursday of this past week we went to visit the site in Sydenham, a suburb of Christchurch. We will be redesigning apart of this suburb after the earthquakes of 2010 and now February 22, 2011. Below I have put some of the pictures I took during the site visit.
Friday was a holiday, as a memorial day for the Earthquakes, providing me with a much need three day weekend. I spent the weekend catching up on everything I needed to do, resting up and hanging out with people on campus. On Sunday I attended church again and after the service an older couple invited me, along with their son and daughter in-law, for lunch at their home in Prebbleton.
