This is where BarBri is being held in Dallas. You’ve got to be kidding me. I’m a 7th generation Texan and all but this is still a little much. I have moments where I can get distracted pretty easily and I’m just not sure I can keep my mind on the lecture with so many [...]
For graduation/my birthday I got a decent camera! I’m a total novice so I needed something to learn on and so my husband and I decided on the Canon Rebel T2i. I’ve been reading books, looking at forums and generally trying to learn more about photography but I have a feeling it will take me [...]
My loyal blog readers, This blog is about to go though a right of passage of all law blogs. The blog will turn into one giant whining/venting outlet for my bar exam stress. I’ve watched many a blog go through this change and few come out on the other side intact. Sure, blogs keep going [...]
Yesterday while watching some classic Law and Order episodes, I started organizing and flipping through my BarBri materials that I got in the mail the other day. I have to add, that this semester I didn’t have any finals so I haven’t taken a final since December. I know this is just the “honeymoon” period [...]
This weekend I made some crudites (raw veggie sticks) and I wanted a healthy, vegetarian, gluten-free dip to accommodate some of my guests. I modified a dip I’ve made before and it was wonderful. 1 15 oz. can of Cannellini beans or other white bean drained and rinsed (Great Northern work well also) 1/3 cup [...]
It’s funny how I get intense writer’s block when I’m not very busy. I think the main issue is that I’m doing very little related to law and lots of errands. Since BarBri starts up next week I’ve been spending lots of time with “real life” sorts of things. I’m trying to get my life [...]
I’m done with law school and all of my obligations associated with that. I feel totally weird. I’ve been in “law school” mode for so long that I’m in some sort of bad habit of thinking that I have a million things to do at all times. Admittedly, the bar exam still looms in the [...]
Law students are generally not friendly to the environment. I’m not even going to go into the constant whirr of the Lexis & Westlaw printers in the libraries and law review offices across the country but today, in honor of Earth Day’s 40th birthday, I’m going to focus on an area where we can improve. [...]
Sometimes I just crack up at the Google searches that lead people to my website. I’m going to address some of my favorite ones: “how to attempt law paper” Well, lets be honest, I’m really hoping this is an undergraduate paper. If you’re talking about law school and it’s come down to Googling this phrase, [...]
I’m continuing on in my legal research course and I still feel like I’m learning so much. This love of intense legal research has even lead me to consider the possibility of law librarianship as a potential career. I’m still exploring my options in terms of that but I have spent a good amount of [...]
