Library

Went to the library today, meaning to return some books (therefore decreasing my to-read list). Took back three books... Took out seven books. So much for the to-read list!
Already finished one of the books- How To Save A Life by Sara Zerr. Very interesting; informative and compelling read. Would definitely recommend!!
Now to move onto the others (putting them on my lists section in a bit).
Also looked for books on makaton, which were meant to be at the library I went to. However, they didn't seem to be there; damn computer systems. Got some books on BSL (British Sign Language) instead. The main differences are that makaton is used as an aid to speech; BSL is used instead of speech. There is a fair overlap, so I'll try BSL, might learn makaton as well at some point.
Why am I so desperate to learn signing? I'm not quite sure to be honest. I just feel it would be an important life skill- it's really interesting, and could help me to communicate with others. On a side note, if I become proficient it would be good as a CV point- at the moment, we're being encouraged to do as much as possible for our CV's. Finally, it'll be something to concentrate on and take my mind off everything else, which has got to be positive!
