The summer time change this week has been so dramatic. Not only does it stay light out later, but all of the sudden it has gotten warmer and sunnier, as if nature abided by the man-made spring-ahead time change. Not that I'm complaining much! I just hope the weather will stay like this.
I have been so busy the past week, between working at the museum and working on my project for my picture research course, I haven't had much free time. The course ends next week and it has really been one of the best courses I have ever taken. I have learned so much about the industry. Even if I never find a job in that industry (I will though!), just knowing all the stuff is neat. I guess I am a bit of a geek, I like learning new things just for the sake of knowing them.
Working at the museum has also been a bit of an education. Standing around for two hours in the Kings Library while patrons swill wine and listen to a sting quartet as they are getting personal lessons from the curators, who bring out artefacts for them to touch (with gloved hands), can be interesting. Although I could do without having to look at the two mummified heads in glass jars at the far end of the room. Every time I walked past them all I could think about was the heads in jars on Futurama. But then again lots of things in the museum feel they belong in a cartoon: mummies, totem poles, stereotypical masses of Japanese tourists with cameras…
Thanks to everyone who replied to my last despondent post. It made me feel better knowing that you all care! (*wipes away tear*) Sometimes it just helps to get the bad stuff out. I am feeling much better now, I don't hate it here as much as that post implied.
