New semester
I love the start of a new semester, all the energy and hope from the students. That normally lasts about 2 weeks then they start skipping classes and putting off their work. This semester is really good becuase I just received my new apple ibook! I smile everytime I look at it. No longer will I have to lug an old departmental laptop with me to conferences. I will have freedom. No longer will I be a slave to whatever programs the conference computers have on them. I will be able to create presentations in what ever format i want and have the confindence I will be able to use them at conferences.
We actually don't start classes until Jan 17th, but the weeks leading up to the start of the semester are so full of hope, not only for the students but for the faculty. I organize my files and prepare for the sememster with such plans, then I get busy and that article I was working on gets put on the back burner and the proposal I was going to submit gets forgotten in my inbox. Yet I have hope!

You professors are always looking forward to your classes. We students are just scraping to get by. Congrats on the hardware!
The new semester hopes of a deranged yet adorable librarian. Gotta luv her. ;-)
Hey now, it is not my fault that students are lazy and unprepaired. Do I make them stay up all night reading because they spent the afternoon playing video or computer games? NO, they have poor time management skills.
All the students luv me, you gotta, I am a librarian. Keymaster of the universe!
I'm of the belief that all women are Gate Keepers and all men are Key Masters. (please refer to Ghostbuster the movie.)
I second LogoAnn's opinion.
