Well, it's been over three months since I last posted anything, and I've decided that writing on this blog regularly is going to be one of my New Year's Resolutions for 2013.
How have the past few months been? Great, actually. I'm feeling so much more comfortable with many of the aspects of my job, and I really feel like a good, contributing member of the children's services team. I even went to my first professional conference as an actual librarian, which was pretty darn cool. Sometimes I still can't believe that I really succeeded in making this my career, but on the other hand, I feel like I'm definitely in the right place.
My worry currently is about a storytelling program that I'm doing this week. I'm telling three folktales that have to do with winter, and the children (ages 5-10) who are attending are encouraged to bring their own stories to share. I hope that I know the stories well enough. At this point, I feel like I know them but am not telling them very fluidly. As long as I don't freeze up with nervousness, I'll be fine, but I'm going to keep working on it because I want it to be better than fine.
I don't know how long my entries are going to be here, but just writing something will be good for me in order to reflect and absorb what I learn. Thanks for reading, if anyone is! :)
