Help
Dear Tina,Sorry for the late reply, but things change every second, my Japanese friend told me she was asked to attend a class tommorrow,too, which will be held at 7pm, so I have to ask for help from others again… You know, professors in CAFA always like this, they are so busy so they may arrange the classes as they wish…Well, finally, here come four girls:Yang Rui( used to study in Lu Xun academy of fine arts major in oil painting) Ji Fei(used to study in Lu Xun academy of fine arts major in silk-print)Yang Ru(the same as above)Lilian(staff in Platform China)and Me.(I am not sure of whether I could attend, but I will try my best if time permits)So, totally, there are five girls, is it too many for you?please tell me how do you think about it.I told them to wear in black, and they may eat something before they come, but maybe some other food like cookies provided will be better because the activity last long…Bests,JULIA

OK. Just talked to Julia. She has five people coming – and out of this I hope three will turn up. I hope. Matt is off shopping, and I have got some more white cotton. Batteries are charged, chips are cleared. The battery lasted 3 hours yesterday with constant shooting. So battery should be fine. Need to bring recharger. Would b good to have secondary battery and secondary chip. Got tripod. all set. Will head over to laurens with pablo around 4pm. The only problem I seem to have gotten Pablo’s cold, which Matt seems to be just recovering from. Not so good. Makes it hard to think and I don’t want to take any of that Chinese medicine. Matt’s been taking it and he just gets knocked out by it at night time.
Trying to organise Pablo’s 4th Birthday for Sunday. he turns 4 on friday, but I think Sunday might be better for kids. Anna Glynn http://www.annaglynn.com/ is nearby doing a residency organised by 24hour art in Darwin – they have kids pablo loved. Will send a few emails out and then search for some chocolate cake for sunday. Maybe Do do, sun ling’s child, and also we met ethan – a little boy and bruces’ child. He would love a big play.
Tomorrow we have next Barber shoot in the afternoon and in the morning we need to find optometrists to make glasses. Viki has printed out map of optometrists around 798. I will talk to viki about translating the glasses project to chinese today as the chances of someone speaking english are pretty low. I want to create a few pairs of glasses, up to 6 or 8, that have mirrors on the inside. This will become part of the nowness project, interventions that change the way we socialise.
Need to buy another drive for back ups. Head to sunlitan/chaoyang mac store on Friday and also find matt a dentist. Saturday we do openings, Sunday Pablo’s birthday and on Monday we should go check out the Great Wall of China. Tuesday lunch meeting.
