Taking you calmly, down every hall, profound fears, carved into the walls.
Faintly breathing, without making a sound, violent men scream, desperately to be let out.
The whispers, of the criminally insane, are better left locked away. With the keys to this city, sinister are the eyes, that watch over me.
In here time ticks by, with silent predators, of the untainted mind.
I stand perfectly composed, at their side, evil has a rather, tantalizing disguise.
Reaching out in the dark, in case God doesn’t show, we pray you remember, where you are.
Where The Wild Things Are
"She Planted Her Own Flowers"
Tavrida National V.I. Vernadsky Uni. (Kyiv, Ukraine)

Už pátý den v kuse mě budí slovy: "Dobrý ráno, Megero." a prožívá se mnou krizi ptáčete vypadlého z hnízda čerstvého absolventa.
Zvládám to samozřejmě skvěle a rozhodně nehledám práci v té samé instituci, kde jsem strávila poslední dekádu života. Ehm. Vůbec ne.

Wednesday
I’m on campus in the library this afternoon. I’ve got a Classical Greek translation to do, and a research proposal to start on.
I am in the exam period at my school. I already wrote my Classical Greek exam. I have papers to pass in and my Shakespeare exam left to go.
I will be very happy when these are over and I can rest a bit over the holidays.

More than just books: Things you can borrow from libraries around the world
Toboggans
The Lillian Goldman Law Library at Yale offer toboggans for students to take out during the winter semester. 
The library is so well-known among the law students of Yale for its unconventional catalogue items that the library has been likened to the Room of Requirement from Harry Potter (which is always filled with whatever a person has most need of).

hey! i haven't ever posted anything on this blog...i prefer to be a silent observer in all aspects of my life. but i recently (okay like nearly 2 months ago) got my dream job working in my university's special collections and archives library. over the past few weeks i have stumbled upon some of the most interesting books and manuscripts that i just have to share with anyone interested because it is absolutely fascinating!
Tumblr media
inside cover of a book from the 1800s. my roommate said it looked like the bottom of an untouched stream. i didn't see it until they pointed it out, but it is so accurate
Tumblr media
staircase to get to the collections. pictures don't do this wood grain justice, it is gorgeous up close, especially when the early morning sun hits it just right...perfection
Tumblr media
inside of the elevator we use to get to the different decks. it's the oldest working elevator in all of oregon !
Tumblr media
one of the most popular requests in our collections: an original, handwritten copy of ken kesey papers. we have over 100 boxes of his books, papers, manuscripts...anything of his you could possibly think of, we probably have it
Tumblr media
for fellow comic fans, we have an entire shelf dedicated to various books on fandoms, including marvel and batman! i have never pulled one out for anybody, but i'm hoping somebody will request one so i can look more in-depth without looking suspicious to my fellow coworkers and the librarians...
Tumblr media
the past will not sleep, printed on shiny gold paper in a book from the 1800s (i was literally shaking holding this, it's so cool)
Tumblr media
original journals of the lewis and clark expedition (again, i was literally shaking; this job is amazing)
Tumblr media
as a journalism major, these were particularly fascinating...we have several books of famous journalists from our university, but all around the world too. gotta find a way to get my hands on these outside of my shifts...
Tumblr media
the back cover of a book in our oregon collection. i believe this had something to do with farming and agriculture, but either way it was so pretty
Tumblr media
nonsense songs, stories, botany, and alphabets by edward lear; this book was literally falling apart in my hands but wow. just the title alone is so interesting, not to mention it's from london !
Tumblr media
songs and sonnets by shakespeare...not an original unfortunately but still super amazing to see, and be physically hold his writing in my hands
sometimes i have to take a step back and remember that i am literally living my childhood dream. then that realization sinks in and i am absolutely shocked about it.
anyway, that's all for now. i will definitely have more to share because these finds are so interesting. if anyone has any requests they want me to look for, please let me know and i will do my best to scavenge around these stacks like a creepy little gremlin and take pictures for the people in my computer.
