Monthly Round-Up: June 2012

[intoyourlungs]

Ahh, June has come and gone. It's been a big month for me for two reasons: 1) I had my convocation ceremony and officially graduated (with cum laude! booyah) and 2) I got accepted into grad school!! I don't think I've mentioned it before, but if you look on my "About Me" page, I mention that I "hope to enroll in graduate studies in MLIS" -- looks

NATION! That's a great place to start with Pratchett, yep. It's also one of my favourite books. Also very excited that you got Frankie - enjoy!

I'm very excited for Nation. :D I do want to read his Discworld stuff at some point too. Eventually.

Fun! I like the videos! And kudos to you for saying my first name properly! I'm impressed.

And yeah, Book Closeouts is CRACK. Very dangerous to visit, so I try not to unless I'm looking for something specific. :)

I wonder why your video flipped the book covers and titles? Strange, as I've never seen that before!

I hope you do more videos! They're fun!

Yayy! I'm glad you liked the video. :) And I'm glad I got your name right. I didn't say it out loud, but I was scared I had gotten it wrong, haha.

CRACK is right. I wasn't joking when I said my cart had 100 books in it before I trimmed it to 30.. I *literally* had 100. I almost did it too. Then reason kicked in. And my wallet. And the fact that I'm moving in less than two months. *sigh*

And I can't figure out how to flip the video to the proper way. I was filming it on Photobooth on my Mac and when it takes pictures it inverts those as well. I've figured out how to REvert the photos the right way, but not with the video yet. :(

That's so weird. I'm sure there's a tutorial somewhere online, but you may have to dig. And dig, and dig some more! :)
