STILL NADA

I love talking to my brother because he always tells me what I need to work on and he always helps me see things clearly. He advised me to begin blogging about the industry I want to be an expert in. I want to be a super-librarian but I really like the idea of traveling and presenting stuff at conferences all over the place. It would be so sweet to do that across the country. Any librarian job I finally get is going to love that I do that. I also want to work on getting published.

Something I thought of when I interviewed with the church history library is how I can use this time now to research what I'm interested in and begin writing about those things. I really love the church and its history in the Pacific. Especially in this new age of transparency. I would looove writing about that. I have to completely develop an expertise in general for libraries. I want to work on stuff that reflects how libraries are changing. George made me realize I can develop my own stuff and travel for myself and not just working for some company although I definitely want to work for a library if this SirsiDynix position doesn't come through. Even if it does I am going to develop my skills so I can speak about a range of things. I love the gospel, my Pacific Islander heritage and libraries and people in general. I'm going to figure that out tomorrow. I am also going to register with 3 school districts as a substitute teacher so I can have some sort of income.

This is exciting to me and I need to work on developing things I'm interested in and pursue that with the dedication it deserves. It is one way I can develop myself. I am grateful for my brother and the insight he gave me. I am going to join toastmasters too. I want to work on my presentation skills by doing it often. I want to write books and articles and speak at librarian conferences. I want to develop my research on gospel topics too so I can present at the church historical association. It is an area that needs attention.

Life is good even if I am still unemployed AND I still haven't heard from anyone.
