On the list of things people probably shouldn't do when they have assignments due and an exam coming up, I expect this item should be written:
Spend entire afternoon as an extra on a movie.
If you manage to see a telemovie on the life of Eddie Koiki Mabo next year (in June in Australia, and most likely available on DVD after that), there is a brief moment where a handful of librarians from the year 2011 are visiting a conference in 1981.
We're all in the last two or three rows of the conference, so you'll probably only get to see an ear or something, but we're still there. That's one life-experience we can now tick off the bucket list.
"heck yeah!"
