Oh god, I HATE this personal essay stuff. Especially since there are no guidelines for this at all. None. Just a line in the application requirements: transcript, non-refundable application fee, letters of recommendation, statement of career objectives.
What career objectives?? No, I guess, more to the point, I can't figure out if this should really be a personal essay (like "I worked at the local library when I was in high school, I started a library at a school in India, etc.") or a list of what I want to accomplish with a degree in library science (like "I want to be a school librarian or maybe a music librarian or maybe an astronaut"). Right now it's a lot about why I think school librarians rock, but not very much about what I think I could accomplish as one.
Argh. Sorry for the brain-dump, I'm just trying to work this all out in my head.
Sorry, Kalshane. (I wanted to rephrase, then couldn't decide how, so I deleted.
So Kalshane doesn't look totally crazy, my post was
I'm Hil, and I don't understand the purpose of tonsils.
(Um. I've got a slight fever right now. I'm not entirely sure how much sense anything makes.)
ita and I are going to battle over the
great chapel.
I'll win not cause i'm a better fighter, but because I'm extra scrappy when it comes to beautiful
buildings.
Huh. I also didn't hate
Theresa
but I'm not sure how the whole
she has the baby thing
will pan out in the long run.
I'm glad none of the NYers were hurt today.
Just about miraculosly, it looks like
no
NYers were hurt today -- either in the collapsed wall or the railroad bridge fire. We're dodging bullets all over the place.

If they call it "statement of career objectives," I'd think it should be what you Want To Do, and why you think this degree would help you get there.
WHAT HAPPENED ON THE OC??!?
I have to go to bed soon.
It's okay, Hil.
Ick. Hope you feel better soon.
Too much, Jesse.
Let's see there were lies and betrayals and
babies and prom and Theresa
and and and and....
OC: Why did they bother having Kirsten
hit by that big truck? Meta said she wasn't going to die, previews right after said she wasn't even badly hurt.
Why not something more realistic, considering the end point they wanted to achieve? I did like that Sandy didn't try and
stop her from leaving with the alcohol.
You have to pick your battles.
Motherfucker.
Maybe I can download it over the weekend.
Yep, Jesse. Mebbe you can. It also had
Julie wet in a bathing suit.
if that matters to you.
ita, ITA. Why?
