Recently

In the past few months, I have been personally requested to fill the temporary weekend coordinator position at the San Jose State University Library, been in a car accident in which my car was smashed up beyond repair and my nose was smashed up, but fortunately has been repaired. I have had to adapt to waking up earlier than I like (especially while I was riding public transit to and from work) to work a full time job while continuing the part time job I have had for the past 5 years for the San Jose Public Library. Then a friend loaned me his car as he is not legally able to drive it until sometime in March, at which time another friend is giving me an older BMW as a wedding present. Yes, the girl who my family and friends were convinced would not ever get married, did indeed tie the knot and is now adjusting to married life.
After getting engaged in mid-August and not having a date set for the wedding for several months, we finally set the date for Tuesday, December 26. That morning the groom woke up with fever which didn't break until several hours after the ceremony, which went off without a hitch in spite of his illness. Although we had originally planned on each of having just one friend, we ended up with nine people in attendance. Now in the midst of changing my name, I have stopped working at the part-time job, as I was selected for one of the 2 permenant full-time positions that I had been filling-in for in a temporary capacity.
Enough about me for now. Coming up next: the exercises for which this blog was created.

About the name

So, although the name may make me seem to have a low self-esteem, it is actually quite the opposite. I am hoping that it will help humble my over-inflated sense of self-worth. However, I think that it will be evident enough that I am not the best blogger out there and that is okay with me, especially as I am too into privacy to really share my inner most thoughts and feelings. As this is purely a work-related exercise, I will give myself some leeway in grammer and such. After all, I work with any number of people who, although they work at one, cannot say the word "library" properly. I think it should be part of the interview process to have them say the word "library" and if they pronounce it without the first r, they shouldn't get the job. I have to restrain myself from correcting them and satisfy myself with the thought that while nobody is perfect, some of us are closer than others.
