The British Library
Last week I intended to go on two interviews. Sadly the BBC decided they were no longer recruiting for the role I applied for but would contact me in December should they decide to recruit then. Boo. But I did have my interview with the British Library. I didn't think it went all that well. I usually do really well in interviews but because I was so out of practice I was having a hard time choosing my words and found myself rambling. I thought at some points they stopped listening to me altogether.
I must have done alright though because they offered me the internship. Good news! It doesn't pay great and only lasts until the end of January but it will be a great learning experience and will look great on my CV, hopefully making me more attractive to future employers. I hope to keep my part time job while I do the internship so I am going from hardly working at all to working too much. But I am not complaining. I am very pleased. Yay!
So today I am enjoying the afternoon not having to work or look for a job. Feels good. Friday Martin and I are off to Amsterdam for the weekend. Martin for a work conference and me to take advantage of a free place to stay. Whoo hoo!

If you get the chance, check out Anne Frank's house while in Amsterdam (assuming you read the book). It's pretty interesting, although, of course, sad too. Kate
Oh! And congratulations on the job (of course!). Kate
congratulations! Be sure to check out the Beatles manuscripts in the music section while you are there ;-)
have some indonesian food while there, they serve pretty good indonesian food (former colony) and as you know it's yummy and vegetarian too.
