I did my anime presentation today to teach *other* people how to do it. It was nice, there were a lot of people that didn't know what it was before. I hate, though, how people always associate it with violence and sex. One of the ASLs told me that she can't do it in her branch because her children's librarian thinks it's violent. Granted, there *are* titles out there that are only about violence and sex, I'm not saying they don't exist...there's a proliferation...but it's not *all* that's out there.
It's bad, I like every new boy I meet. There's a new work-boy I met today that I think is cute. He has pretty blue eyes and *red* hair. Gah, I love red hair. BUT I promised myself NO boys.
I think my problem is that I'm more than slightly quixotic (haha, that's a great word, "quixotic"). Not every new person you meet turns out to be important in life, like they do in novels. I think I have problems associating with people because I organize the world into novelistic plots. Or at least, I had more exposure to books growing up than people.
Speaking of books, I'm not so sure I want to be a librarian anymore. My English professors keep loving my papers on 18th century literature, and it makes me question whether or not to go to grad school to be an English professor. It would be nice to spend the rest of my life theorising about old, moldy books. I get tired of school now, so I swore I would not become a professional student, but I think I will miss the joy of crafting a paper I know is great (well, I'm never that certain while writing it. Usually I tend to think it's awful). Maybe I will get a degree in library science, and get a PhD in English while working as a librarian, so I can subsist.
