Some news finally.
Which is not that I've been basically sick as a dog for the past month (my stomach's kaput), and I've regardelessly spent the said month binge drinking (rhum night on the 15th and tequila night tonight, albeit I'm going to miss it because my body couldn't cope) and eating any junk food imaginable;
but more about the fact that my year at the library ends monday, or that I've been asked to stay for another eight months...
Everything needs to be defined but as the chief librarian left earlier this year and the new one is nowhere to be seen (did he change his mind? did he postpone his arrive? Is he going to a nunnery instead?? No one is given to know) we all have been asked to stay. That's because the other librarian can't run a library to save her life (and she's working there only from 1983!). Moreover the girl they pushed to hire (remember some post ago?) is an unable psycho, they're going to kill themselves if we leave. So we hope to get at least 600€ for a part-time job (20hrs a week). In this case I might accept it.
And it could come the time when I'll need to ponder if the life of an librarian is good to me for a lifetime. I suppose it's not bad, but who knows? I'll have to start studying seriously the obscure art of cataloguing too.
The other news is that I've finally started spending the money I've saved all year long.
The Plan is to:
- change my room's furniture (wardrobe and library for sure, maybe an armchair, less likely a dresser, desk will be no more)
- go on holiday (this around november it seems, either Berlin or London) Cristina and I started looking for infos yesterday
- the last it's been accomplished already, just yesterday! (see below)
LIGHTS ON!
I'm typing with it right now. it goes without saying, I love it!
decided to buy this too, so I finally can stop burning mixed cd for my car :)
there's no turning back! ;)
They gave me some programs too: Cs3 Creative Suite, Dvd Studio Pro and Final Cut! (asdfghjj!! my life is complete)
Have you seen the new CS3 Creative Suite from Adobe? Too bad they gave me it in italian and I'm having an hard time with finding things on the menus. However I'm not impressed by the minimal looking icons. Didn't minimalism die with '90s??
