Its September 16th and I haven't posted a new blog in a few weeks. Since the UK, life had a month to calm down and now has gone into full swing. So let me compartmentalize:
LSC courses:
At school this year, I am taking LSC521(public library services) LSC535(Youth and Children Services) -for which the post before is for- and my PFE- an internship. The first class is pretty calm, my first big assignment is to evaluate a community by some standard economic questions. Next will be to craft a paper on digital literacy. I hope for this to become easier in that my work at Cranston(where I am doing my PFE) is giving me hands on experience with how digital literacy courses go. So far we have taught Word and basics. Lastly, is 535 and this class has a lot to do. I have two assignments for the 27th and the previous post is part one of one of them.
Jobs:
Cranston Public Library PFE, one other paid internship, Government Publications cataloger/barcoder, and Newport from November onward.
Social: ALA has started up again. Better still, Kim is glad to have me back. We had a very anime evening last night and we made plans to costume hunt- she's going as Sailor Jupiter and I am going as Velma from the Mystery Team/Scooby Doo. I already have the shoes! I've made a few new friends already and I hope for us to get a trivia team up and going. There are a few local places and one place they like in Mystic that seem promising. So far the trouble is picking a night for going(my roommate and I have quite opposite schedules and a lot of the same friends). So we'll see where that goes.
Book/Movie:
I am currently reading a lot for school, but in my spare time I am reading This is a Book by Demetri Martin & Micro by Michael Crichton. Film wise, I've been on Netflix a lot because nothing in theatres looks fantastic that I haven't already seen. I'm waiting for Thor2. And TV-wise, I just finished Orange is the New Black(which was SO good and I still don't know why!) and(god help me) American Horror Story. I can only handle an episode a day and when I watch I literally hug my pillow tight! My friends have talked this one up and its really making me question their judgement ;)
That's really all for now. I have no renaissance faire stories to share as I won't be attending this year. My friends from years passed aren't the party I want to go with anymore and my current friends are busy in Maine or with school. I would love to pop up the first weekend of October(before friends and family arrive) but going alone could be odd. Ah well, I will have to keep busy with other awesome thing and get friends to go with next year. On the plus side, when bestie and her sister-in-law come up we are going apple picking and I am taking them around to some awesome local eats!
