Hello! (echo)

I'm back. Guess it must be school work time because I'm blogging. Should be doing that, but this is much more fun. I'm working on a presentation that I'm excited to do, but am not sure what my focus is. Usually I have more preliminary work done before I jump into the paper or presentation, but my deadline is looming. I'd like to spend less time on this than what I need.

Well, I'm only taking on class this semester. Taking it easy. I'm glad I decided to do this because I'm pregnant. Having a child is a huge life goal realized, but that's another blog entirely. I'm not completely sure how this will affect my library degree goal. I'm trying to remain flexible. I'm remaining positive that this goal will be realized, but I'm also putting it down on the priority list.

In the meantime, I'm getting back to this presentation because I don't want to spend all weekend at the coffeeshop. Well, that wouldn't be such a bad thing...

I took the personality test. I am an ENTP. I used to be an ENFP. Guess I go with my head now more instead of my heart. Yup, I have a hard time following through on all the extreme ideas I generate.

I talked with a fellow student this morning about this class. He did not have good things to say about the teacher. In a way, I'm looking forward to the challenge.

Forgot to tell you that my prof. called from one of my classes, the same one who made me redo an assignment, to have me resend her my final project. She off-handedly said that she believed that I had already sent it--As if I didn't! I sent in the POS. She gave me full credit. Killer. I'm not complaining. (See above grades for how the rest of the classes came out.)

took a look at the syllabus for my class this fall. not good news so far. I've printed about half of the articles the teacher wants us to read. half of the FIFTEEN or so. not to mention the couple of books she's tossed in. one being written by her. oh. and i've gotta take a personality test. weird. i hate those things. after minoring in psychology in my undergrad years, i just can't take one more psych test. it's so fundamentally full of bull s***t.

so, yeah. my attitude is sucking. i still need a few more weeks of laying around, doing nothing, before i get so bored that i feel like doing school work.

I had to redo an assignment. Erg. I am hating school right now. Hating it. I can't wait to be done with this semester. I can't wait.

I am so stressed out right now. It doesn't entirely have to do with school. But if I didn't have school. I would be cool. Something had to go. School is easiest.

One class next semester. one class next semester...one class...next...semester.

Hey! Do you like my new librarything dealie on the right side of the page? Cool, isn't it? Cool, cool, cool. Comment. Tell me what your reading. What should I read? I'm reading HP6 now. No, not 7. Gotta read 6 first. Tell me, tell me, TELL ME!

Degolar asked if I've learned anything.

Well...yes, I suppose. It will all be applicable in due time. I am enjoying the conceptual part of library school. That is, looking at the library through a world view and understanding aspects I'd never considered before. While I knew that I enjoyed the research part of the job, I am finding preservation to be an interesting idea too.

I have one final project due. In about a week. I've begun preliminary brainstorming about where I'd like to take it.

In non-course-related news, I have decided to take a break next semester. I'll only be taking one class. This summer has been tremendously difficult. Some of it because I took three classes and some of it for personal reasons. As always, life is unpredictable, but I must make the best decision for myself and my family.

Don't worry, I'll be reporting here throughout...as if anyone reads this...
