a river in Egypt

I'm totally in denial about leaving my job at Broadneck. It's so weird. I had to fill out all of these forms for classes today and they all asked what my current job was. For 2 more days it's Library Associate. After that it is Librarian. OMG, what have I gotten myself into!

Tried to do some homework reading tonight too. Collection Development sounds interesting until they mention statistics, and then I panic. I don't remember anything about stats anymore. I know it was only a year ago but still, math = yucky. My other course was recommended for the Young Adult Services track, but it seems to lie heavily on the side of school librarians. The prof. says there will be non-school relevance though. I hope so. I printed all of the articles out so I need to read a couple tonight so I can post some comments tomorrow or Friday.

ack...Wednesday and Thursday and then that's it...no more AACPL. It's so sad. I started working in the system when I was 15! I put books away for 7 years, all through high school and college. I've met so many wonderful people, behind and in front of the desk. I know Harford will have wonderful people too but it's still scary. I have to start from scratch when it comes to meeting people and stuff. meep!!!!

And I KNOW I'm going to cry so bad after dinner on Friday. Heck, I'll probably start crying when I take those last few toys off my desk Thursday night. It's all happening so fast!

I am going to try to blog all of my new experiences though. I won't bore you with it on Livejournal, but if you're interested in my ya library stuff, I am going to use my Blogger blog. If you want, I can make an LJ feed. I'm hoping I can make myself update weekly.

I know exactly how you feel. I started, when I was 14 and felt the same way about leaving. On the bright side, I've learned every library does it differently. Everything is a learning experience. I'll keep up with you on your blog. :)
