Librarians!

As my close friends and family know (and perhaps those not close to me), I'm a geek with a passion for books and libraries. So much so that I'm in the middle of a master's degree in the field. And I love it. It's fantastic. It's exactly what I know I'm supposed to be doing with my life. Which is great, since as evidenced by this post, I really don't have a lot of direction in my life at the moment.

Anyway, on to the reveal. I love my education so much that I decided it needed to be digitally preserved. Classmates will recognize the stack of textbooks as our actual stack of textbooks.

Also, I love the internet.

And InDesign.

I'm NOT giving up.

Occasionally I find myself in need of a little motivation. Okay, much more often than that. I loved Mraz before it was cool. Like, way back when. His chocolately velvet voice and simplisticly powerful lyrics often make me want to be a better person.

Only a select few of you will even realize the potential this message holds for me. Yet I believe everyone can adapt this treasure to someone they care deeply about.
