almost breaking the rules...

I'm one day shy of breaking my goal of the bi-weekly blog. BAD Fat Girl BAD.  

so here's the haps:

I started work last Monday.  I'm working Monday through Thursday from 8 am to 4 pm.  So far so good.  A little scary and a little hectic, but I like it a lot so far.  

I registered for my fall classes, and I'm still a little confused as to what I want to take, but I'm sure I'll figure it out soon. (I hope)

My in laws came for a visit this weekend. Lots of fun, a nice way to spend the long weekend. 

And that's about it.  

Oh, since I can finally buy books I'm reading the second in Casssandra Clare's Mortal Instrument Series, which is pretty good so far, for some reason, real life to me sucks a bunch, so I need escapism at it's best... and a fantasy world seems to do that nicely.  :)

Vacation all I ever wanted...

Finals are OVER!  Yes.  I'm officially done with my second year of law school!!! yay.

so how do I celebrate?  by reading cases for my journal submission.  That's right, I'm truly that lame.  

Actually, I'm heading West in the morning to visit some friends, and very much looking forward to it. It's my bit of vacation before my job starts on Monday.  Wow. Job, Monday. SCARY.  

Now I just have to find a little time to add a few pieces to my wardrobe. Apparently I needn't be clad in a suit all summer long, but I do need to get some more dress shirts to go with my assortment of slacks and skirts to be 'semi' professional. Whee for shopping.  

I'll update next week after i start work...

May 1st!!! I made it - well sort of.

I made it through the entire month of April without purchasing a book!!!! I'm very proud, and I, of course, celebrated that fact by purchasing a book today.  Boy was it nice to buy a new book, buy a latte, and sit in Barnes and Noble and read for an hour or so. 

As for not making it, I didn't manage to read the news every day.  I'll try again in August.  

As for what's coming:

I have finals for the next two weeks, so if I seem to disappear, that's where I went.  After finals, I'm off to Seattle for a long weekend.  On the 18th I get to register for my fall semester 3L classes, and start my job working for a Judge.  

Memorial day weekend my in-laws are coming to visit.  

June 9th I have a give a lecture for my externship class (45 minutes of me leading discussion - complete and utter crap in my opinion, but I suppose one of the best ways to learn something is to teach it)

June 21st, I'm back in Seattle for the weekend.

June 29th, my Journal submission is due, if I decide to do it (International Law Journal)

then I get to focus on just work for the remainder of the summer.  I have a couple more visits to Seattle planned, and would like to plan some weekends where my friends from Seattle can come visit me, but we'll see how that goes. 

There's also the 4th of july in there... hopefully to be spent in Seattle... we'll see. 

anyhow... that's why news every day is waiting until August.
