Hah! After being depressed and moody for a few weeks, I finally decided to call it quits. No more working at the library. You must think I'm nuts. People say working as circ desk assistant is a piece of cake: not tiring, you can do your homeworks, and barely no one to bug you unless for checking books in and out. Yeah, they are probably right. But being a Taurean sucks coz Taurean care too much about other people, and they get bored easily.

And I am one of that unlucky Taurean. I don't like the feeling I have everytime patrons ask questions and I can't answer it. All those bullshits about law that I don't know about. "Can you tell me where I can find journals about the government courts bla bla bla?" "Can I take a look at the Appellate nutshell? I don't know the call number though" "Do you have books or bindery about the judiciary law?" I feel like a loser when I couldn't locate a book they're trying to find. I hate it even more when they just leave the desk because they don't want to wait any longer. I don't know if it's my fault that I couldn't help them or it's theirs since they don't provide enough information for me to find what they want. But one way or the other, I am still a useless prick, aren't I? Sitting at the desk, sucking the hours doing nothing but surfing the net, and won't be able to help these patrons for one small matter and feel like I have let the whole world down.

I haven't been happy for a long time. Not since I came back from Malaysia last year. But I'm a little bit happy now because for once, I've made the right choice by quitting the job. It's not an utterly bliss, but it will do for the time being.
