Misc.

Lots of things have happened in the past week. One of the most startling things was a story my sister told me. Apparently when my mother heard that my boyfriend had bought me a Kindle, she panicked and told my mother that they needed to start saving up for a wedding. I was surprised to hear this because I have never discussed getting married with my mom. I also do not understand why the Kindle purchase led to a wedding. While I love my Kindle a lot and it's definitely the best gift given to me in a long time, I did not have the same thought process as my mom. It's true that books are the best way to my heart (besides food) but it was just a hilarious story. My friends seemed to find it funny to and suggested I write a story entitled "From an e-book to marriage".

Speaking of my boyfriend, I've been thinking about my career path. After graduation I plan on working in a military library or a library on an Army base. As far as internships, I have been doing some brainstorming. I think that this summer I may go back home and try to find an internship on the Marine Corps Quantico base. I'm having a difficult time trying to find internships. I have also thought about working as a community college, so I may start looking for internships in that area.

I've been working on about 4 projects this week. I've learned a lot and there's no way I can discuss all of them but I just wanted to say that having 4 projects due in one week is definitely a good representation of how Library School is definitely not easy, and yes in fact you definitely deserve a degree for the hard work that happens in this program.
