get a master's degree in library science

an A, not that the grade matters much at this point.

I am finished!

I think I’ll wait to mark this done until I get my final grade. Just to be sure.

or when I get the diploma?

At this moment, I am totally feeling the pressure. So, what’s new, you ask, bibliomane always feels anxious and pressured? First, I’ll point out that you guys receive the brunt of my anxiety, because I try not to talk about this much with other people, especially at work. Secondly, this really is make or break time. I have to finish my final project by Thursday to get the MLIS. I am also totally freaked out by having these job applications to do at the same time. I really should have done them by now. And, I am afraid (perhaps irrationally) that I have no chance of getting these jobs because of my anxiety and current difficulty completing tasks, but I am probably not the best judge of how others perceive me and what they think of my work. If you have an extra good thought to spare today, I could use it. Thanks.

- 5 days
- one online tutorial
- one paper
- one short presentation
- lots of breathing
- lots of coffee
- one thing at a time

Just finished my second-to-last paper EVER in library school!!!!

I only have 4 more class sessions to attend and then I will HAVE the MLIS.

I think I am in danger of graduating.

eeeep!

that I am now taking my final class?

phew

but, boy, howdy, right now that seems like a long, long time from now.

I’m ready to be done with this.

I think the information literacy teaching practicum I’ve been trying to set up for the past year is finally going to happen this fall! It will be 16 weeks of Saturdays, so no weekend trips for me. I’m very excited, though. I’ll get more teaching experience in a completely different context than where I work and it will be excellent professional networking. Yay!
