Que?

We are down to the final wire in the semester and I could not be feeling more frazzled. I just saw on someone's blog that he or she would be traveling to Pittsburgh this weekend for fast-track, what???? I know it's next week as it had been moved from this weekend to next weekend, but why on earth would someone write that? No mention was ever made of a meeting time for this class, am I not aware of something?? I can't take lack of organization and clarity and just basic information as to what is going on.

I am beyond sick of the search and seize assignments for LIS 2002. The latest one is geography themed and it is making me furious because the questions don't make the most sense and are next to impossible. You can spend all day working on it and only arrive at one or two answers. I realize that in the field of librarianship, you are going to be asked some hard questions, but for the many we have been asked to find answers for, I don't think anyone in a million years would ask some of them. I love geography and was all excited about doing this one, but it could not be any worse. I don't care anymore if I sound like a horrible complaining person. I am so sick of this semester and just want it to be over with. I want to go back to having some personal time again, actually cleaning and organizing my apartment, it looks horrible!! I can't stand mess and clutter but that is the only way to describe it now.

I don't even want to think about the assignment for LIS 2600 which is due next week. I guess I'll plan on doing it sometime this week. I am also completely disheartened over not hearing back from any of the jobs I had applied for in the last couple of weeks. I could not have been born/graduated at a worse time in regards to finding a job. I sent a follow up email to the one place I had applied for and keep getting a response of "we're currently reviewing resumes." It's not that big of a library to begin with and somehow I don't think a ton of people would have applied anyway due to its location.

End semester, now! :(

  1. I so feel your pain! And my apartment is a mess and I can barely function in it since I am normally neat and orderly. You will survive the Search and Seizures! I remember them and I believe the geography one was the hardest and I ended up not being able to answer one or two of the questions. I did fine and you will too! :-) Bridgette
