Oooooh, looks like a great week, Kyera! Eager to see the full review of Don’t Cosplay. 😀 Hope this week is just as great! 🙂

Thanks! I was very surprised when I wrapped it up. Alas this week will not because I have to make a screencast instructional video for class and I have to work Saturday because the assistant director couldn’t find anyone to work. Ugh. They constantly talk about how they want to be flexible for school – yet I have no time for school.

Oh noooooooooooo. So no breather for after your trip. But gosh, yeah, that does not sound like flexibility at all. D: Poor Kyera. D:

I’m honestly going to probably end up doing some of my HW at work just to hopefully have enough time to do my project, but I just remembered I have a conference to go to on Thursday. Shoot. I legit have no time this week. Man it’s times like this I realize I REALLY need to buy a laptop. Agh.

Omg, oh, no, Kyera!!! That doesn’t sound good at all. Do you just have a tablet?

I have a desktop, which I love but isn’t portable. Alas.

Alas indeed. Desktops are quite nice, but then you sadly can’t move them. Can you use the ones at work then?

I use my work desktop every morning to either catch up on blog posts, write my posts, or do my schoolwork – but it doesn’t even have sound so I can’t watch any of the class videos and I definitely can’t record a screencast tutorial video for class with a voice over 😩 I just wrote my script for it and I have to try to record it on my Mac tomorrow night after work. The only problem with working at my desk is the fact that people don’t respect the fact that it is my lunch break or whatever even if there is literally a fork and food halfway to my mouth. I get interrupted if I’m sitting at my desk trying to do my schoolwork, so I kind of also need the laptop at work so that I can disappear somewhere in the library and just work during my lunch break. You totally don’t need to hear about this, sorry.

Oh nooooooooooooooo. I’m wishing you super luck with getting it all in tomorrow. Fingers crossed that the booktubing has got you to be a pro that you can have it all done on the first time. And omigosh, that’s awful. If I see the fork and food, I’m for sure backing up and pretending I accidentally stumbled there. Is it library patrons or co-workers? And no, it’s all good. 😉

Coworkers! My desk is in the room directly behind the circulation desk. Oh my gosh, I am the worst at booktubing haha. I cut about 50% of my recording when I edit because I mess up ALL THE TIME, although that’s probably because I have yet to actually write a script… this project requires that you submit the script as well, so I did that earlier tonight. But I don’t feel like recording the video now, I must read!

Oh gosh no it’s terrible. I just realized I’ve been recording it 100% wrong, like my shelves are so zoomed in. What’s wrong with me? Haha. But I haven’t gotten a chance to record a new video with that revelation in mind, or edit the one I recorded like three weeks ago.

No, no! But oh gosh, I don’t watch much booktube, so I didn’t know it was a thing. But I bet with everything that you had going on!!

I think normally you actually see their book shelves behind them as the backdrop and they probably stand close to their cameras to show you stuff… But I stood in front of my shelves and zoomed in my camera like a knucklehead. 😂
