Picked up a couple of sketchbooks at New York Central Art Supply Tuesday afternoon, then met with Todd and we went to see the Gugenheim before heading back downtown to meet with Zha for a hearty Korean dinner at a place along Korean Street. Beef bibimbap in stoneware = yum. Day after, met with Todd in SoHo and we explored various shops in and around the area. Lots of walking, found lots of cool stuff - KidRobot, Evolution, etc. Took in dinner at Mexican restaurant with Todd and some of his friends in/around SoHo (the name escapes me right now), then took in a bit of coffee at their Rand & McNally for a bit, talking about the creative industry, SL, scifi etc.

Thursday ended up being a homework day, getting some character concepts done, as well as two kids illo spreads.

Friday ended up being a 'prep for home' day - packing, doing laundry, digesting experiences over the past week, contemplating things about the future - like moving, like work, like friendships. Met with JiaXing Rong that evening and went to Parsons U's life drawing open session, explored Chinatown/Italy town a bit, then headed back to hotel to finish prepping for early departure next day.
