This and That

Yesterday I went to the law school for the first time ever without a stitch of makeup on. I'm not super prissy--I just don't really feel comfortable without some makeup. I think this extends from a childhood filled with unbelieveably bad acne. I did hide under a baseball hat though:)

My mad dash to school was provoked when I read the online practice exam...and realized I couldn't answer...couldn't think of the way to even START...two of the four essay questions. My drive proved to be fruitless because no additional exams were available. Besides...it turns out I think I was just psyching myself out and not reading the questions properly.

I took the exam today...and somhow failed to mention INJUNCTION or CHANCELLOR"S DISCRETION on my REMEDIES exam. sigh. Hopefully it still goes ok.

Today was my first experience with the online exam software. I like the fact that I seemed to have somewhat more time and that my hand wasn't killing me. However, it did seem to add some stress as I was worried about the exam. Minus some post exam stress about the fact that I couldn't get the exam to upload...all in all it was ok.

Last night I realized my night vision is TERRIBLE--I almost wrecked three times! Is there some remedy for this??

Finally, best line of Grey's tonight..."the VIPenis".

Sigh

When my Dad called today to see what I was doing...I replied "outlining my outline".

This is where it really gets fun. and my exams haven't even started yet.

Sigh.

Bravo

So I've always been tempted by the reality shows. I watched Survivor for a couple seasons, The Apprentice for a Season, and I still watch America's Next Top Model.

But...Bravo has me hooked. It started with Project Runway...then Top Chef...then Top Design. Now I actually find myself watching Shear Genius!! (I'm rooting for Tabitha)

Food Weird

I eat some things in strange ways.

1. I like Frosted Mini Wheats in the evening--especially with hot chocolate. BUT--I like them up and eat them in order from least frosting to most.

2. I take apart Kit-Kats and eat them piece be piece---as in each of the 5 sections divided into 5 sections.

3. When we were kids, whn my brother and i would have meat, mashed potatoes, and another vegetable for dinner, we would mix them into one big slop on the plate and then eat it. (Fortunately for my social skills i qiut doing this ;)

Scheduling

So, once again we are enjoying the thrill that is scheduling for next semester.

I have determined that there are 9 classes left that i need/want to take:
1. Family Law
2. Trial Advocacy
3. Pre-Trial Litigation
4. Employment Law
5. Sales & Secured Transactions
6. Crim Pro.
7. 1 Seminar
8. 1 Perspective

now theres nothing I can do about the seminar, the perspective, or trial ad.

Of the classes left, i really want to take employment, and pre trial litigation.

that leaves family law, crim pro, and sales & secured transactions.
I feel like I need to take all three of these for the bar. Of the 3, I am most interested in family law (although Im really not that interested in any of them).

Problem: if i take all of these classes, I will have 3 credits over the amount required for graduation. So....do I take all of them? Can i forget about one of the 3 im not really interested in?

:)

This and That

So do I kill myself next semester with 17 credits (including Trial Advocacy and a Seminar) plus Moot Court in order to have a SWEET 2nd semester as a 3L...or just save the seminar for 2nd semester (if I take it fist semester I will only need 9 credits to graduate...otherwise I will need 12)?

Hummers

Yesterday morning on the Today show Matt Lauer was doing a story on car makers tailoring new cars for women. While interviewing one woman, she stated that her husband "tends to be attracted to hummers."

Ya think??

My first year of law school, and hopefully beyond: And Why Would You Clean Your Kids Puke?

My first year of law school, and hopefully beyond: And Why Would You Clean Your Kids Puke?

I linked to this post because it reminded me of being a lifeguard the summers I was in high school. I cannot tell you how many times I cleaned up feces...both in and out of the bathroom....those summers. Poop in the pool...poop on the ground...it was all gross. And somehow none of the parents thought to do it themselves. Furthermore, my boss did not consider asking them to do it. Now Im not saying that the waitstaff should have had to clean up the puke....Im just glad that there are some employers out there who stand up for thier employees' health.

The worst incident was when a handicapped man couldn't make it....lets just say i needed a hose....

Post Break Slide

So Spring Break is officially over...and we have begun the slide into exams...and SUMMER!!
Break was wonderful...although I may have preferred to just have class and get out a week earlier. I slept a lot...did almost none of the work I planned to do...and had a good time.

I went on a shopping spree...4 new pairs of shoes!!
I did like 3 days of yard work....which may be more than i usually do in a YEAR.
We had a fire...and made SMORES!!!

I want B to do an Easter Egg hunt for me this weekend. Think he will come through?? :)

We still don't have the class schedule for next semester...could we get on this??

My last exam is on SATURDAY!! Can u say SHITTY???
