Jennifer- CP 10- 10/1/10

Around 8:00, Woon Jee and her friend Julie came to look around LeMoyne for the First Friday opening. By this time we weren’t quite as busy so it wasn’t so difficult for the girls to walk around throughout the galleries. Woon Jee had previously told me that she really likes jewelry and was really excited to look at the exhibit. Both she and Julie said that they really liked all of the jewelry on display but the pieces they wanted were too expensive. I said I knew how they felt; there was a pair of earrings for $80 I wanted but couldn’t afford. Woon Jee really wanted to know which earrings I wanted so she picked up the catalog for the show and went off to try and find them. She came back awhile later and excitedly told me that she was able to find the earrings that I wanted, and that she liked them too. I was really proud of her for figuring out the labeling system and making her way throughout the gallery (there are many Americans who come into the gallery and struggle with this).
