I kept seeing the career meme pop up everywhere, so I gave in and took the test. I think first it said I should be a tour guide, but then I specified my level of education, and the results changed accordingly. Check it out!
  1. Librarian - I guess I'll stay in school then, eh?
  2. Tour Guide - Um, I used to give tours of the Steinbrenner Band Center. If I was a tour guide though, I'd want to work somewhere where I had to dress in some sort of period costume. Wouldn't that be fun?
  3. Anthropologist
  4. Professor - Cause the world needs more English LIt. profs. lol.
  5. Writer - But I don't want to live in a cardboard box.
  6. Critic - Food critic? Better yet, can I just be a dessert critic?
  7. Print Journalist
  8. Communications Specialist - I talk a lot. Does that make me a specialist?
  9. Translator - To bad I'm not fluent in Italian. Or French. Then I wouldn't always feel like an idiot when I lose track of conversations once we get past "bonjour."
  10. Market Research Analyst - I don't know what this is, but it's sounds incredibly boring.
"Dental Technician" was originally on the list at #10, but it disappeared when I changed my education level. I must confess I was confused. Did I miss the "I like working with teeth" section of the test?

Today was the first meeting and officer elections for the McGill CLA chapter. I won the (uncontested) election for secretary! I guess nobody else wanted to take minutes. But, hey, can't be worse than transcribing Bukusu.

I still haven't bought my textbooks, so today I thought I'd look them up on Amazon. It turns out they're significantly less expensive. For instance, the bookstore is charging $106 (CDN) for the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, while Amazon only charges $65 (US). Even with international shipping, that's a huge difference. I'm glad I didn't run out and buy the books right away, then find out later I got riped off. So until I can get copies from Amazon, I'm sticking with the library copies. The mysterious missing Introduction to Cataloging and Classification reappeared today! It was (surprise) shelved wrong when I turned it in on Thursday. ::rolls eyes::

In random, unrelated news, I made an omelette for dinner tonight, and it actually looked like an omelette instead of a goopy mess! Usually I have trouble getting them out of the pan in one piece. I am so talented. Maybe chef should be on my career list!
