The past few days and PFD (Post Festival Depression)

So the festival finally ended on Sunday and classes have since started up. For the study abroad, we are enrolled in two different classes: a film critique class (taught by Dr. Kohn, we write film reviews and read them aloud/discuss them in class) and a film marketing/business class (taught by Dr. Smith). Both have been a lot of fun, and it really seems like our group has come together a lot more since being spread out all over the place seeing films at the festival.

Monday in class we learned about PFD (Post Festival Depression), which apparently happens to students on the trip every year. I can feel it already. The market badges. The films. The begging for tickets in my tuxedo. It's all over!

But it's okay! This weekend will be our long weekend. Meaning? Fun travels! A group of us are likely going to try to catch a train to Morocco or Nice to go exploring different areas. I'll definitely update the blog when I return!

Last night was the first night in a while when our group didn't have something to work on. To celebrate, we went out on the beach at night, talked, and relaxed. It was a lot of fun! Somewhere along the way, we met up with these (tiny) English kids who said they had a yacht. But it didn't pan out. Definitely saw that coming.

Anyways, right now I've got to get back to work on my last review. I'll update again soon! Missing everyone in the states!
