had a library tour where we
discovered how amazingly high-tech
and cutting edge the library seemed I
never seen anything that looked so
spectacular in my life everything from
the lavish cafés to the multi-media
computer rooms and who can forget
the 3 story stair case made of
marble… and oh yeah the books are
cool to except no one reads those
ancient things anymore …

Media and I even got to use
the camera my first day It
