Oh my God, I am actually sat in a library doing work for the first time since I dropped out of college (five long years ago!)! And I have to say, I don’t like it! People are blatantly not being quiet like you are supposed to be and I am to busy watching what everyone else is doing and making sure they don’t invade my personal space! And not only that but it smells! It is vile and is actually making me feel rather ill!
When I walked into the library, I asked the man on the front counter if it was ok to use my laptop in here and he was quite helpful and whispered “Yes but you need to go to the next floor and use a study booth, you can’t get the internet in here though”. I followed his advice and headed over to the old rusty lift and entered the little box of doom. It slowly moved upwards creaking and groaning all the way and then stopped. I waited nearly half a minute for the door to open, but when you are claustrophobic it seemed like a lifetime.
I edged my way out and glimpsed around for a free booth only to discover that there were no booths what-so-ever! I headed towards the computer area and found an empty table surrounded by shelves where I have remained since. I have only been here 10 minutes and I feel ill. I want to go home but have to wait an hour for a lift from my mother! Damn it!
