Dr. Love

I saw a commercial recently for a show entitled something like "The Dr. Keith Adler Show."
The premise of the show is that he gives unique advice....he's a psychologist...or psychiatrist or something.

Anyway, the interesting part of the preview was when he gave advice on sex. He said, "you wouldn't tell your daughter to marry the guy she has the best sex with, would you?"

I think that is so interesting. I had never thought about it that way before....and it kinda made me think.

Deer In The Headlights

Thats about how I felt last year at this time. After the first week of law school I felt completely overwhelmed, lost, and sure I was going to flunk out.

However, I don't seem to be getting that vibe from any of the 1Ls I've encountered this year...both in person and in blawgs.

I'm not sure if maybe I was just much more naieve and nervous than this year's class..or they are just much smarter and more prepared than I was.

I have repeatedly heard the words..."this seems easy" which I guess quite honestly I find kinda shocking.

But hey....good for you guys...and congrats on finishing your first week. :)

Another Question

I was thinking about applying for one of the part time positions available for 2Ls this semester. I am wondering if any of you worked/are working as a 2L. If so, how many hours did you work per week? Was it worth it?

Thanks! :)

Question

For the females out there reading this...or I suppose this could apply to some guys...but not likely:

Has anyone tried the website "bagborrowsteal.com"? Its a site where you pay a monthly fee to borrow designer bags. Has anyone tried this? Liked it? Hated it?

Let me know...I wouldn't mind finding a cheaper way to feed my bag obsession. Thanks!

:)

Thank You

So I started thinking about all of the crushes and boyfriends along the way that have helped me get to where I am now.

A was my first crush....the little boy down the street whose brother was best friends with my brother. We used to sit under the tree and play "20 Questions" about who we liked.

L was the older boy further down the street. His brother was also friends with my brother. He was super tall....and super cute. And looked at me as a little tomboy.

D was the absolutely super hot athelete whose games I followed obsessively. He too saw me as the tomboy who could play ball. He ended up in New York and has become...well...very New York.

MJ still lives in my area and is a very nice guy. He too was an athelete whose games I followed...and was on the same team as D. I heard rumors that he was very domineering and possessive...but have no knowledge whether this is true or not. He pretty much didn't know I existed until quite later.

MD was my first love...young puppy love that showed me many areas of love I didn't know existed. He taught me that sometimes you have to stand up for what you want...even if some people disagree with what's best for you.

These different guys (and others) have brought me to B....and to appreciate the true love that I have for him...and that he has for me.

Hidin

So I head into class today knowing from past experience that if the Prof calls on you in the first week he sticks on you throughout the semester like a bulldog on a big juicy steak. So I naturally slide into the last row at the last minute. I am feeling pretty safe since the class is decent sized and PLENTY of people are blocking me from the Prof. Additionally, we were in one of the large classrooms so there is a LOT of space between me and the Prof.

So who gets called on in the FIRST FIVE MINUTES OF CLASS? Me, of course. Now I have a full semester of fun ahead of me.

:)

1Ls

So it turns out that I kind of know 2 of the new 1Ls. I told both of them to call or email me if they have any questions or need any help...or outlines. And I really mean it. I hope they do contact me if they need ANYTHING...or just want to complain. I would have LOVED for someone to have done that for me last year.

Good Luck 1Ls. :)

Letdown

After such an amazing summer...it is such a letdown to be back in law school. Although I keep telling myself that this year is supposed to be so much better....and I really am glad to reuinte with all of my friends...I can't help feeling like a mental patient trapped in the straight jacket again.

Sigh. :)

2nd Year

Since my second year of law school is aboout to start...and I heard the words "Next year will be SO much better" about 1,000 times last year....Im wondering whether I should really expect this year to be better.

My be is better because we aren't so nervous....or green. Or maybe because we have a better idea of what to expect. Or maybe people just tell you that to make you feel better during the hell that is first year.

Im hoping its better. :)

Long Time No See

After being out of commission for awhile...I have a few new things to report.

2. Work ended up being terrific.....AND I got asked back next year so I am SUPER excited!!!
(Plus this means no oncampus interviews this year!!! :)

3. I think B is getting me a dog this year...I'm not sure when but I cannot wait!!!

4. School starts in less than one week...sigh. :)
