a very good weekend :)

[livejournal.com profile] shemhazai was in town for the long weekend, and we painted the town red. Well, pink - not much in the way of late night partying, but lots of museuming, shopping, wandering around, and many fine conversations too detailed and circuitious to relate.

I am reminded that I'm a very lucky person to have such cool friends in my life, people with whom I really "click" and enjoy their company :)

Monday afternoon I finally got back to regular business, retrieving my online class info and logging into my library orientation course - required and the only thing I can really take before summer semester.

If I fall silent in the next few weeks, it's because I'm sorting out how to best manage my time to do my classwork and still do my Normal Stuff(TM) as well.

I'm jealous, 'cause [livejournal.com profile] shemhazai is fun! And happy for you that you got that weekend treat, 'cause [livejournal.com profile] shemhazai is fun!

Library orientation course, huh? Well, you know which direction to yell if you need help with your homework. ;-)

Just might. If I can get as comfortable with library databases as I am with Google, I'm on the right track :)

Hard to believe, but library databases are actually easier than Google, mainly because they use a controlled vocabulary as part of their indexing (you're using a "controlled vocabulary" every time you do a subject search at your local library). :-)))

Oh, boy - that sounds like a perfectly wonderful weekend. I'm sure you DID have fun!

As for the elusive beast of time-management, if you ever figure it out, please let me know, ok? I could use a wee bit myself...

Well into Day One of doing homework, and I've found the following helps:

1) Turn off email
2) Log out of Livejournal
3) Minimize web-based groups

Seriously, the above are just too, too good at stealing eyeballs away from my course materials!

Sheesh. Someone should tell Allison not to do that - it's not nice to frighten your friends like that.

I promise everyone high-speed internet access this summer!!! Yes, here at Hotel Gigi we aim to please. I'd say something about "you can check out but you can never leave", but I'd probably have to pay royalties somewhere if I did.

Well, you DID ask her. :p

Yeah, yeah. I know... watch what you ask for, you just might get it.

Plppbbbttthtt!
