New Museum Project

Couple things going on.
As usual I'm still working on my common application, on and off, doing the supplements and all.

I also went to Panama's Museum of Natural History. The place is a mess; me and a group of students are going to help renovate the place. There's a lot of potential to the project: there's some structural and esthetic things to do. I like dealing with space and esthetic, specially when I don't have to draw things out to explain myself, so this project really suits me. Also, just to get people flowing in, I'd like to try finding scientists interested in presenting their work coming in, and inviting the kind of people that donate to museums to visit and donate.
A good number of my team members think that's far fetched thinking, they don't really think that can happen, but I think with some effort it's a reasonable, achievable goal.

Also pretty cool is the fact that the teacher supervisor studied in Oberlin, one of the five colleges I'm applying to. I had quite the interesting chat with her while a bunch of us waited for our rides to pick us up. She was interested in Agel, Kiva, and seemed to think I am the kind of student that would fit in Oberlin, so it was pretty neat. I gave her an Agel magazine and an Umi. I'll be speaking with her soon.

Until later posts,
