Research Journal Entry #10

I haven’t really touched my proposal since the last update, but I have successfully written about 90% of my Literature Review for Library 2.0 on the impact of Facebook and other social networking sites on interpersonal relationships, and I’m pretty happy with it. I did all the citations in MLA format before I noticed that it has to be done some other way, but that should be a pretty easy fix and it’s still not due for a while. I just wanted to have the two major papers mostly done before the end of June so I could focus on Cataloging. I have no clue what’s going on in that class, but I keep getting 4/5’s and 5/5’s on the quizzes, so I guess I’m doing something right.

It’s almost lunchtime, and I am psyched for noms. There’s also a mobile blood bank in my office park, so my coworker Sarah and I are going to zip over there and try to donate before the end of our break. I’m not sure what the deal is with when you’re allowed to eat leading up to donating, or whether you’re not allowed to donate if you’re on your period, or exactly how long it is that you are required to wait after getting your last tattoo…so I may not be able to do it today after all, but there’s no harm in wandering over to find out anyway, and it won’t stop me from doing it sometime soon! I figure that if I’m willing to subject myself to needles for aesthetic purposes, then I should be willing to donate and do some good.
