A lot has happened since we last spoke. Towards the end of August I god a job working as an Audiovisual Technician for the APCC on campus, and started on September 3rd.
So far the job has been fun. Stressful at times, but that's the nature of a job, isn't it? I enjoy the work, and there's been a decent amount of downtime.
I shan't dwell upon the change of job, because while it is definitely important to note, no one really wants to read a recap of what people do in their workweeks. I'll just say that a month in, I enjoy my job.
I recently finished reading the Harry Potter series again. I decided to start re-reading the series each time July 31st rolls around. I picked July 31st, because that's Harry's birthday, and the day that the books usually came out.
For the first month I didn't really read much of anything. When I started my job I had still hardly made a dent into The Sorcerer's Stone. Since then... I've been a real Potterhead, reading every day, usually hundreds of pages each sitting. Yum.
I finished the series yesterday evening, had a little reading break, and then started reading Star Wars. I bought a leather-bound book of the Star Wars trilogy a couple weeks back, and have been itching to crack it open ever since.

Disclaimer: I do not currently work at Barnes and Noble. I previously worked at Barnes and Noble, but am not being compensated for mentioning this book. I even paid for the book itself. Side note: the Barnes & Noble in my area now (not one of the couple that I've worked at) is pretty horrid. They never have anything I go in for. I bought this from B&N online.
I'm a bit of a sucker for the Barnes and Noble classics series to begin with, I have a couple shelves in the office of their paperback classics, and own a few of their leatherbound classics. But this one is by far the coolest looking book I've seen them put out.
And now I feel that I've spent a little too much time away from reading, and shall return to my reading. Stay classy, Internet.
