Well, I made it through my first week. I have really bad blisters and tired feet, but I am very happy with my Walkabout so far.
Today Claudia and I were cutting out FCAT cards when she got a phone call. After trying (and failing) not to listen in on three or so phone calls, Claudia sat back down. She seemed very calm, so I asked if everything was alright. She told me that someone had called her father and told him that her son was in London, England, at a wedding, and had crashed their car and needed money wired to him. "Where is your son right now?" I asked. "In class in Pennsylvania. I just called him."
Sigh. This is a good start to Walkabout. I helped with anime club on Wednesday, which brought back fond memories of my own Graham School. Anime is not my thing, but hey, I can broaden my horizons a little if I want.
Well, I'm looking forward to next week. I've got a three day weekend, so that should help my blisters heal! Love--Micha

Yea you! The first week is done and you've taken on some interesting tasks and seem to have learned a bit about the "social expectations" of the library. Why did you pick a library for a walkabout? I know you worked in the library here but wondered if there were other reasons as well....looking forward to a reply. Stay out of shoes as much as possible this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI chose a library because I plan to get my masters in Library Science. This will not be for a while. I also just love libraries, and working in one in Florida is amazing. I can have my cake and eat it too with this one.
