However, I am now signed up for Materials for Youth and Acquisitions and Management of Knowledge of Information this Fall. That's a mouthful, eh? I am very excited about the Materials for Youth class, as my goal is to be a children's librarian. It looks like the reading list is fantastic, and I already started pulling my selected books from the library I work in. The second class is one of the required "core" classes, and a big part of it is collection development in the library, which also interests me.
I did, however, get a little concerned when I looked at the course lists for both classes.
I kid, I kid. I'm sure it will be great. This is what I have wanted to do for a long time, and I'm excited to learn.
Everything is great at the library job. I love the people I work with, I love what I do. I was given a few sections in the library that I am responsible for, and I can't wait to start ordering books. Who wouldn't want to order books about cooking and food, or art and museums? Score!
I'm also going to try to write more reviews of the books I read. I sometimes find it difficult to write reviews. I'm thinking I need to write my thoughts down as I'm reading it, instead of waiting until the end and doing it all at once. I did read some interesting books this summer. I've signed up for that stupid Goodreads challenge, and my goal is to read 200 books this year. Hahahaha! Actually, I was right on track until a couple of days ago. I'm not sure if I'll make it, but I'm more than halfway there and that is excellent.
Other than that, how did I spend my summer vacation? I went to Disneyland! I was in Anaheim for a few days to attend the D23 Expo, which was a lot of fun. Think of it as a Comic-Con for hardcore Disney fans. I did get to Disneyland one day, and had a blast.
So, goals in the next coming months...work hard, read a lot, write more book reviews, and keep this blog updated for the one person who might read it. And remember to listen to Palpatine, everyone.
