Falling Into Place

It feels lately to me, that my life has been at a crossroads and I've really just been standing still. Yesterday, my college e-mailed me and told me that the program that I would be taking there starting this summer, is now being offered online. I flipped out! If I got into the online program, then I wouldn't have to move, spend all that money, and I could still work full-time while going to school online. It seemed like fate had stepped in! I immediately called the college, and applied for this new program. I am not sure when I'll hear back for it, but I will be staying where I am for a little while longer, till I know for sure. My coworkers at my job now were pretty happy that I was staying, and honestly so am I!

So, I just wanted to take a minute and share this amazing program with others. The University at Buffalo is now offering the Library and Information Sciences Master's degree with a concentration in School Library Media Specialist all online. As long as you live 60 miles from Buffalo, you can be a candidate for this program. Here's the link: http://gse.buffalo.edu/online/mls-lms. So check it out! There are only 24 spots available, and you must apply before June 1st!

I am excited for my future, and what it may hold now. I just have to get through the next three to four weeks until I find out everything! Wish me luck! :)

Remembering 9/11....

       I just wanted to say thank you to all those people out there who serve our country, and protect us day and night.        9 years ago, I was sitting in my 7th grade study hall, when we heard people running through the halls, thats when my teacher went out to investigate and he found out what was going on. He came back into the classroom and turned on our tv. What we saw was horrifying, surreal, and very very sad. I saw the second world trade center tower fall, and I saw people jumping out of the building, and I saw debris crashing to the ground in NYC. As a 7th grader, I was in shock, to me the U.S. was impenetrable. I really never thought that something like that could happen to my country. I was shocked, appalled, and confused. I realize now how naive I was, and how my judgement and view on life was forever changed that day.        I really have no idea whether it was the planes that knocked the to...

How Rude!

As of recently, I was hired and took a Customer Service Associate position at Lowe's. Which at first, I thought was just really a glorified cashier. As it turns out, we do a lot more than just ring customers out with their purchases. As a customer service associate, we ring customers out, we handle customer complaints, requests, problems, inquiries, we handle the phones, we find, print, and call about customer's order that were special ordered, or an internet order, or just ordered. We do a lot, and sometimes it gets very busy and crazy. What I really want to write about concerning my job was how to me it seems that people have just lost their ability to be pleasant, nice, and gracious to the people they are buying products from. I had so many customers be rude to me today, that it got me wondering, (and using Full House phrases), "Why are we so rude?" I know that I don't have a very important job, but I am still a person that should be treated with respect wh...

Book # 38 Water for Elephants

Thanks to a co-worker who lent me the book, and friends and family that told me how amazing this book was, I finally read, Water for Elephants , by Sara Gruen. I have been hearing rave reviews from friends, family, coworkers, online sites, and other blogs about this book, and I have to say that I agree whole-heartedly. This is a wonderful book about love, life, the circus, and how connected people can become with each other and animals in such a short time. It's a stunning tale of the carnival and circus people of a time long ago, and how their lives revolved around the circus, the performers, the workmen, the animals, and the crowds. I loved all the characters in this book, and it was really interesting going from the past to the present with the main character. The love between Marlena and Jacob is so wonderful, and pure that it's a great part of this book. I also love how involved and invested Jacob becomes with the animals and some people in the circus. It's a tale of...
