Above, is a picture of the JFK Presidential Library and Museum, where I began my new job as an Oral History intern. As I am officially employed by the National Archives and Records Administration, which is a goverment ran agency, I was finger printed and am in the process of going through an extensive background check. This involves remembering where I lived for the past five years and so on. Lets just say it took awhile to fill out the forms.The Library is located right on Boston Harbor and in the pavillion, there is a huge glass window that overlooks the ocean. It is beautiful to look out. However, I am down in the basement that has no windows, but I am loving my job. I am helping to transcribe oral history interviews and get them ready for publication on the library's website. The people I work with are fun and some are my fellow classmates. I am thankful for this oppurtunity as it allows me to further develope my skills as an archivist. Plus, I am learning much about JFK and his legacy. I love the museum. If you come visit me, you will have to come check it out.
Happy birthday to my sister-in-law, Laurel. You are the best!!!
