i just read my first "book for pleasure" of the summer. happiness! it was laura moriarty's the center of everything. i read her book the rest of her life for a class this semester and really liked it, so, i figured i'd give this one a whirl. (in fact, i met the author, 'cos she is a professor at KU) i really liked this one as well. i can't decide which i liked more, they're both very different. hmm...
my next book on the list is christopher isherwood's down there on a visit. i'm going to work on that on the plane ride (and back) to chicago. we'll see how it is. i really liked isherwood's berlin stories, but i'm not certain i'll feel the same way about this one. whatever, it's just nice to read for pleasure yet again!
though, i also need to start doing some more studying for the GRE, and applying to more jobs.
and by the way, i also made out a resume template for myself, as well as a cover letter template. i hope to high heavens i can get a job soon. i need a job!
did i mention i'm going to go for the gold and work for my PhD in library and information sciences? well, i am. here's hoping i can do it!
mmk, i need to go try to sleep, 'cos i'm leaving pretty early in the morning. btw, chicag-ites! get in touch with me! will be there until sunday morning! going out to club hydrate tomorrow evening! if you want my number, email me at appletosh3@yahoo.com
