Welcome

Welcome to my blogsite. It is called Aquarius after my zodiac sign. One thing that caught my attention is Mary's invitation to have the incentive to brag and show off some tech skills that I will be acquiring once I finish doing the 23 things. I intend to do just that - organize and document the thousands of photographs I have accumulated over time through travels here and abroad. One of my hobbies is scrapbooking but I have not done it for a couple of years now, so the photographs have piled up. I think to continue doing it manually now will take me forever to organize them, so I have no recourse but go electronic. Way to go Web 2.0!

Beemine

Mary asked me this morning how my weekend was. It was a very frustrating one. I tried to upload this picture all weekend, but I was unsuccessful. Today, while I was at the reference desk, I did it. If you ask me how I did it, I can't even trace the steps on how I started the process. I am thinking of signing up to another blog and use it as my "lab."

February 19

I realize that I tend to not listen a lot. I thought I have read the first six things on the list of 23 things but I have not. I know that I have gone through Things 1-5 but did I do Discover Activity on 7 1/2 habits. No! No wonder I could not write about anything because I was not doing what I was asked to do. From this experience, I learned two things from the 7 1/2 habits of lifelong learners, that I accept responsibility for my own learning and I begin with an end in mind.

Creating this blog

On Valentine's day, I created this blog and it took me a while to figure out the whole process, but it was fun doing it. The problem now is what to write that is something informative and worth sharing with the MCPV group.
