So today was my first day of law school.
It went well! Just Legal Writing and Civil Procedure today, and I had four hours in between that I used to get a lot of work done. I really like my Legal Writing professor; she's very enthusiastic, excellent at explaining concepts, and seems very approachable.
Civil Procedure... *sigh* Well, it's at the end of the day (plus it's four days a week, ugh, and my only Tuesday class what the hell), the subject matter is incredibly dry to begin with, and the professor, though certainly knowledgeable, is definitely beyond his teaching prime: he's just not engaging. This class is going to be torture, methinks.
Tomorrow is Legal Research (part of Legal Writing) and Criminal Law (plus more Civ Pro, blargh). Monday is Torts for the first time; I've heard really good things about that professor, so even though it's an 8:15 class (KILL MEEEEEE), I'm hopeful it'll actually be fun.
Also, VLS received a big donation this past spring to establish a center for the study of sports law, which is a huuuuuge interest of mine, and while there's no other concrete information yet about the program, I've heard rumors of potential internships with the Phillies and other teams. *happy dance*
So, here's hoping the rest of this semester goes well!
life,
