Lawyerly Entry.
I love how I can update my Facebook constantly, but when it comes to my Livejournal, I think of exactly what to write -- and never do.
--
Job hunt's going pretty miserably. Temp agencies have been a dud; if I do hear back from them (which has been only twice), it's just been keeping my hopes up for something I never get. I really want to get a job as a paralegal somewhere, but it seems that without the certificate or experience, no one's willing to hire me. Overall, wholly frustrating.
Any lawyer/paralegal-LJers that have any insight on the whole thing?
Also, Law & Order marathon is underway. I've been watching a lot of the UK franchise, now that the Mothership has been canceled. LA, too, a bit -- but I don't think it's that remarkable. And no one there is a Cutter, or McCoy.
Oh, and LSAT date is December 11. I have to start applying for law schools ASAP (according to the parents, who are sick of having me living with them). It's strange though, I feel like I'd have more motivation to work harder if I could just move out, with a decent job. Nothing career-making, but just something to get me my own room, place, and kitchen to pitter-patter in. I'm looking into as many assistant positions in the City, or some stupid office job in the meantime, but it doesn't seem like my resume's catching anything.
Oh well. I should go back to NaNoWriMo-ing. Or Farsi class. (Probably Farsi class.)
