Where Did The Blogs Go?

In case you haven't noticed, I stopped posting for I think over a week. It wasn't because of any serious reasons so you can ease your minds and it's not because I was lazy to make an entry.

The reason was simple and it deeply frustrated me for a while...
Our internet connection had a problem! 

For how many days, we have been contacting our provider about our situation because our connection went down after a strong thunderstorm last week. Even if we hadn't had internet for days, I still managed to write it down on a word document, that way I can simply upload it when the time comes that our connection becomes fixed.

That time is today! So I'll be constantly uploading the days that I have missed out on. Sorry for any inconvenience. :D

Stay tuned and keep reading!

Conclusion and Final Thoughts

The Conclusion The Filipinas Heritage Library served as practically my home for the past month which is why it was quite a bittersweet moment to finally visit it as intern for the very last time.  It was a Wednesday afternoon when I attended the talk on handling museum materials. I knew by then that this would probably be my very last attendance as an intern. It was also the very last time I would be turning in my ID for a volunteer name tag, something which I have been doing for the past few weeks. After doing that, I headed to the talk where I was given an Ayala Museum kit! They were even serving coffee, popcorn and brownies.  Museum training I have learned a lot in the few hours we have talked about museum work and being a curator. We discussed the different kinds of museums and the intricate process involved in being one, both creative and business. It provided another career opportunity for us looking into our professional career. During the sho...

FOURTH WEEK ROCKS!

And now we've reached the final point.  The final stretch before the home run. The chorus being played for one last time, concluding the song.  It's now the final week of our internship!  Weird, now that I think about it, I haven't noticed that three weeks have already passed by. I guess you never really notice how fast time flies by when you're enjoying what you're doing.  July 02, 2018 - Monday For the first day of our last week AKA our last Monday, we were extra cheerful because Jasmine  would also be finishing up that weekend as well, only a few hours ahead of me.  The first half of that Monday was quite uneventful. I continued with scanning and digitizing serials. I also took this time to look into and read some of the books the Filipinas Heritage Library had to offer. I found myself gravitating towards their amazing collection of Filipino horror and science fiction short stories. It definitely sparked interest within me to start...

THE WEEK THREE RAP

June 25, 2018 - Monday The third week of the internship started quite uneventful as I was only tasked to digitize books the entire day. By the end of it, I was able to digitize two entire books which I felt proud of. The highlight of that Monday was that we had a new intern handling research and social media that is studying in Paris. Another classmate from SLIS would be beginning the next day so I was pretty much excited about that. The other thing is that I was able come home early today. For the past two weeks I have been going home about 8-9 PM but that day I was able to go home 6PM.  New week, new tasks! June 26, 2018 - Tuesday The next day was similar in that I really wasn't tasked to do much. I continued digitizing the WWII collection throughout the entire day. I was able to finish at least another two books by the end of the day. Once again, I was able to go home early. However I noticed that it was getting quite fast, the internship, I mean. It seemed like on...
