Thing 5 & 7: Lovin' Flickr

I've had a Flickr account for nearly two years now and another one for a year. I can unequivably say that I love Flickr. I have a personal web site of my roadtrip journeys with my friend from college and Flickr allows us to easily post, maintain and share our photos with the everyone on the web.

Thing 2: Lifelong Learning

I suppose "Viewing Problems as Challenges" is one of the most difficult habits for me to master in my progress as a Lifelong Learner. I enjoy working at challenges, when I know the outcome. An uncertain outcome is often a difficult hurdle to jump.

I think it's not so much not knowing what the outcome will be as much as not knowing whether the outcome will be a positive, negative or a "waste of time." However, each of these can be beneficial in their own right. In some situations more can be learned from a negative outcome and its consequences. And sometimes what seems at that particular moment "a waste of time" later turns out to be a stepping stone for another challenge.

Thing 1: Observations from the Circ Desk

Things are quiet here at the Circ desk, but I suppose you have to actually open the gates and let people in for it not to be quiet.
