Armchair BEA #4: Beyond the Blog


     Well, I've never even thought about expanding my blog to anything else, or monopolizing it and using it to make money. But I wouldn't want to do that because for now, its fun. Anything I have to do for money I assume is work lol and I don't want to consider blogging as work. Then I'd end up getting bored or annoyed with it. 
     But what I have considered is getting a career in the publishing world and/or in a library. At four years old (yes I said 4 lol) I told my mom "When I grow up I'm going to be a librarian." Amazingly, I never let go of that dream. I STILL want to become a librarian. But I have also found a new love of editing as I took on ARC's from NetGalley and other bloggers, or publishers. I know they say big as day *UNCORRECTED PROOF*, but I still think to myself hey this should be such and such. It's a bad habit, but good for practice. But right now, I am currently working towards a Master in Library Science and I am taking some elective classes such as Creative Writing and a small intern like thing for publishing is in my near future. So, as you can see, reading has been a huge part of my life since long before I started this blog. 
     So, with that being said, I guess I should add some random facts about me since I really didn't apply to the beyond the blog question.....

-I consider ALL types of reviews for EVERYTHING. Any time I am buying off line, or someone is telling me what I should read, or what food I should try, I ALWAYS consult reviews first. 

-I have a weird form of OCD. All my inanimate objects I must name. But only my electronics. (Example, My Nook =Nookie, my phone = Sophie, my laptop = Rayne and so on...) 

-I am a sweets FANATIC. My favorites are any type of sour gummy candy. 

-My real name is PATIENCE but I go by Nikki because no one ever believe me when I say it lol 

-I only drink cold coffee, but not hot. Unless my mom brews it and it has LOTS of creamer in it. lol 

-I am a HUGE sports buff. My undergraduate degree is in Mass Communication Broadcast Journalism with a Specialization in Sports. I LOVE ESPN and I am in love with all things NBA and NFL. (And Quidditch... But I didn't think that counted as much haha)

Well, that's about as random as it gets for me! Hope you enjoyed!
