Les réunions de Lundi.

Another Monday, another réunion.  This is the one day of the week that the whole team gets together in the salle de réu to discuss the upcoming week and administrative business.  The main goal of the meeting is for the production team to tell the graphistes what they will be working on during the week and for everyone to be aware of the projects that we are working on.  Today the meeting ran ESPECIALLY LONG!  It lasted from 10:30am to 1:45pm - I felt like I was in a photo critique class.  A couple interesting things happened during, however by the end I was getting so restless and my stomach was crying for food.  We are working on a rock compilation album for Sony and were brainstorming on ideas for the cover and the idea of macro photography of a guitar came up.  Nathalie immediately turned to me and said, we just need to rent a guitar and Erin can take the photos - so exciting!  Who knows if it will even happen and if it does if the client will like it, but hey could be cool.  It will bring me back to the world of "little things" that my fellow students in Lighting this past semester were so excited to see each week as I showed my work.  

Thankfully at 1:45, Cyril let JP and I excuse ourselves from the meeting, insisting that we didn't need to be there any longer.  I was so relieved, as I was meeting my friend Alexa for lunch and said we would meet at 1:30.  I hate being late!  Luckily she was running late as well.  The weather today was nikel (a new word that I learned to day - means perfect, awesome, incredible, insane!).  Last week it was cold and rainy and this week is looking up.  We sat outside and had sushi at a cute little japonese restaurant near Cadet.  I had the most incredible summer roll - so un japonese but so good - crab, cury, cucumber and carrot.  We were both starving and felt so much better after scarfing down our food.  Alexa is leaving tomorrow to go back to New York and I'm so sad - as is she to leave Paris.  I've really enjoyed chilling with her.  She goes to school just outside the city, so I'm sure we will see a lot of each other next year.  I am so glad my colleague put us in touch...even for such a short time.  

After a late night last night, tonight I'm taking it easy...
