Watching Harry Potter 8

Last night (while packing) I watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and I loved it (as usual)! There is something about that movie (and the book, obviously I read the book several times before I even saw the movie the first time) that I just love. The characters mature and grow and Jo doesn't ruin them (don't you hate it when an author messes everything up!). So, I was in a Harry Potter mood ... enjoy all of the Potter quotes and pics (all from my Pinterest account).

Breaks my Heart!

I always have such big plans to get so many books read that my whole shelf was overflowing with books to get to, eventually. However, since I am moving, I thought I should bring back most of what I had so they don't get lost in the move. Insert extra sad face here! Returning books is SOO hard, even though I kept track so I know what to check out later, it is like giving away a child ... well, maybe not, but still!

What I kept on my shelf:

The Masque of Red Death

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

Partials

Sense and Sensibility (graphic novel)

 

along with

Back in the Day Bakery Cookbook

It was the best of times ...

This really has been the best week I've had in such a long time! It was more exciting then getting into Drexel or graduation. Why? Well, the reason it two fold. The first (and, in reality, the reason everything else could even happen).

I GOT A JOB!

This is not just a job, but it is the PERFECT position at my library, getting to do everything I've been dreaming of doing, with the best staff in the business, for a town a love, near my friends and family.

My title is: Children's Librarian

I will be doing outreach programing on the bookmobile and my position has an Early Childhood Literacy focus. I'll be initiating programs with a technology focus as well as working tech into the department as a whole. I am going to be planning story times and other parties for kids of all ages. I will also be helping with Summer Reading Program and collection development. 

GLEE!!! I'm seriously so excited! I'll start the position as soon as my current position is filled ... you wanna apply?

Second Announcement?

I RENTED A HOUSE!

This picture is from the landlord's website ... and it is obviously dated. The house is now green, those trees are HUGE, and the awful junipers are gone. It was built in the early 1900's and has tall ceilings, great windows, and beautiful detailing throughout the house!! 

If I seem a little absent on the blog over the next few weeks - you know why :) I'll be moving and settling into a new place. However, internet is at the TOP of my list, so I'll try to keep everyone updated!
