Outline Mania
Another thing I don't understand about law school (and law students)......why in the world would you want to make a THREE HUNDRED PAGE outline?
I understand there is a ton of material (believe me i understand)....but how does it help to make a small treatise for yourself? I mean seriously...there HAS to be a way to shorten these outlines.

Dad
Thursday night I reached that point in exams when I can no longer take the stress and I freak out and call my Dad to ask what he would think if I decided to drop out.
Now this is not the first time (or the last) but every time I say something like "I AM SERIOUS!!! I HATE THIS!!!).
Fortunately my Dad knows me....and he is always able to listen through the storm and just be there for me.
Then last night he drove down to see me and took me to dinner...Thanks Dad! I lvoe you.

Name Game
Is it wrong to want to keep your own last name when you get married? This desire has nothing to do with not liking his last name, loving the sound of my last name, or ideas about feminism.
Pretty much I just feel like it is my name. It just sounds right to me. However, the BF is totally opposed to this. I can understand the practical problems it would cause and respect his opinion.
However, changing my name will not change me. We will have been together for 10 years by the time we get married...so people already know that we are a couple despite the different names.
What do you think?

More Exam Etiquette
How many times do you need to leave the room during a 3 to 4 hour law school exam? In my Property final the EXTREMELY loud doors must have opened and closed 50 times...not counting when people were exiting after the exam.
Is this the inevitable result of too many redbulls and starbucks?
And if you are going to levae...maybe consider closing the door quietly instead of letting it slam shut. K? Thanks:)

Law in a Flash
In going through the law in a flash cards for property...there is a card that says in 2010 "Leonardo buys himself a rocket-powered jet mobile...[and] gets to work in 15 seconds."
Im not sure when these cards were created...but somehow I'm doubting we are going to have rocket powered jet mobiles to drive to work in in four years :)

Exam Hygiene
Why am I supposed to not shower, not wear makeup, and not dress somewhat decently during exam time?
First...it takes me no longer to put on something halfway cute than it does to put on sweats and the oldest tshirt i can find. In fact...it may take me longer just to find that old ratty tshirt.
Second...I am not spending every single waking moment studying (obviously). I think i can take a few minutes to hop in the shower...and maybe even dry my hair and throw on some makeup!
Somehow the general vibe seems to be if you arent dressed like a slob and looking like you haven't slept in days....you are neglecting your duties.
Uh huh...cause I think I will do quite well in a caffeine crazed, sleep deprived, smelly state. :)

Random Thoughts
1. Does anyone else find it strange to take your significant other (in this case wife) to class with you? I was shocked to see the guy who sits in front of me bring his wife to class. The only think I could think was that I PAY to come to class...and I do not want to be there. I cannot imagine coming for fun. Also, when I mentioned this to my Dad, he said he could see me taking B there....he would fit right in as he played his video games and could not answer the questions;)
2. A girl in front of me in the hallway today had a button on her bag that said "Vagina Friendly". What?
3. 3 MORE WEEKS!

Blog Thoughts
I've decided I like having a blog...even if I am the only person to read it. As the end of the semester rapidly approaches its interesting to look back at the posts.
As much as this year nearly drove me crazy...I'm ultimately glad I did it.
However...I have reached a new point of distraction. I realized this as I was creating a Guest List for my wedding in Civ Pro today...a wedding that will not happen for 3 more years...and which I am not even engaged for yet.
4 MORE WEEKS!!!!!!

Spring Fever
After a stretch of 70 degree days, I was definately in the Spring mood. Consequently, I decided to turn the heat off. Also, I bought new porch furniture, bought a grill, and decided to have a spring dinner consisting of hot dogs on my new grill, corn on the cobb, and baked beans,
My spring fever was going great until I woke up yesterday to a coating of snow on everything....in APRIL!!
I so need to move south.

Gunner Surprise
I sit behind the biggest gunner in the 1L class in Con Law...this unfortunate occurace resulted from him picking his seat after me. Anyway...it hasn't been so bad because when the prof's attention is aimed at our section of the class...he usually has his hand up anyway.
Now this guy is always throwing his 2 cents in...but he does have some nontraditional gunner qualities. First, he frequently shows up to class late...but i think this is because he has small children. (I know this because he has their picture on his screen saver.)
Anyway...I was completely and utterly shocked when I happened to glance down at his HUGE computer screen and realized he was playing GOLF on his computer duing Con Law.
The shock almost made me make a verbal noise.
Apparently even gunners are bored in Con Law.
