As of Friday, I was officially done my internship at the Stratford-Perth Archives. This means I am also done with Collections Conservation & Management Program! YAY!!! Now to officially start the job search, which I am a little nervous about.

It is a little weird being done, as I've said to everyone who has asked me how it feels to be done. Honestly, I don't think it has quite sunk in yet.

There isn't anymore to report on the job searching front. I'm still applying for that job in London at this radar museum. Nothing else has really been posted that I'll be applying for. I check the job sites everyday though, just in case something good is posted.

Anyway, what will I do with my time now? Well, I've got an appointment at the museum here in Goderich this afternoon regarding some possible volunteer work. I know it's not paid BUT it's the experience I want. The potential project is cataloging archival materials, which is what I would like more experience in. Yes, I just did an internship at an archives but I didn't actually catalogue/document any archival materials; my cataloging project was to document three- dimensional objects (i.e. trophies, signs, mugs, etc) and not archival materials. As for what else I'll be doing: I've got to finish getting ready for Christmas (just over a week away!), and I've got video games I would like to get finished (Bioshock, here I come!).

For now though, I have to go out and shovel the driveway. Yes, I still hate winter...
