The English-speaking Frenchie Reads Camille Taboulot

Did you ever wonder why some people seemed to have a better income than you do, with definitely fewer degrees or work experience? Today, I am explaining exactly how you can get the income you deserve! 

As i am going to move into my new apartment this month, I thought it could be cool to share with you ideas on how to display your books. This post is dedicated to ways you can actually organize books on a proper bookshelf but if you rent a tiny apartment (around 20 sqm) like I do, you may wan to be a little bit more creative with the ways you organize everything. Today, I will simply share with you the ways I loved to organize books in my old apartment but if you would be interested in way to put it all in a tinier one, let me know in the comments. Just to make that clear, I am a minimalist with only 2 bags of clothes but 7 big boxes of books: now, you see how hard it can be for me to organize it all! But I do believe that with a little bit of effort, everything is possible. Ready?

Before I get into today's concept, I would like to clarify a point. It is normal to feel down at times – even often – and romanticizing, to me, means  looking at how life unfolds without trying to control everything. It is not controlling the little moments but learning  to enjoy them and make what is (not force what is not) more beautiful. You now understand my vision of the concept and, more importantly, you understand what romanticizing life does not mean. It is so easy when wanting to romanticize one's life to try and make it as perfect as possible. However,..

I feel like every job has its own kind of stereotypes, and I mine is not an exception to the rule. I am a librarian and I hear the same stereotypes over and over, which leads me to that post. I want to share with you 3 things that librarians actually do not do, in order for you to have a clearer idea of the things we actually do. Are you ready? Go!

Sometimes, I just feel like it is important to set quick reminders here. I tend to share very practical tips, but today, I only and simply want to remind you one little tiny thing: you do not have to do what you do not want to do. Okay, that is written, I may stop here. Nonetheless, as I love writing, I will keep talking about that concept a little bit more.

We are totally in that time of the year in which lots of students start their internship (me included) and I thought it would be cool to discuss that "how to balance internship and academic work" thing together. Of course, I know there are schools that set you free from whole academic work before the start of the year's internship but not every school does that (and mine definitely does not). So, let's discuss the ways I do manage doing an internship, working on my essays, preparing the next academic year and working on my thesis. Ready?
