So I decided not to get a new livejournal, nor to change any of my contact information. To quote Office Space , "Why should I change? He's the one who sucks!"
To make a long story short, though: I made it to law school. I'm sitting here in the entryway of Sargent Hall, the home of Suffolk University Law School. I'm in the evening division for the school, and it's been great. So far, the class that I'm having the most difficult in is Criminal Law II, but that's because it's a lot of theories of punishment (revisiting utilitarian thought, etc.), which would be Tracey Stark's class from my undergrad years. We all know how much attention I paid in that class (read: slept through it.) Contracts is simple, thank God, because that's what I am planning on doing with the rest of my life. Civil Procedure is just learning rules, and if you don't remember them, that's OK, because you'll have the book in front of you the entire year. And Legal Practice Skills is pretty much briefing cases and turning them into office memos. Simple. Lot of work involved, but simple.
I'm also moving to a new pad in Brookline. I only know one of my new roommates, named Andrew. He's pretty awesome, whole crew seems really laid back. The rent is fucking expensive, but I needed it. AND Suffolk is giving me extra living expenses so that way all shall be well.
I got a new MacBook. These things fucking run like a charm. I can have both Windows and Mac OS X up at the same time, doing sixty things at once, and still be able to do whatever I want. Far cry from the Compaq.
Still busting my ass at City Sports, although now it's for manager's pay. Yep, still working in shoes. Still getting paid a lot more. If I get lucky I'll be salaried at $25 K/year by December. WOO~!
Nothing else major. Miss Hannah like hell. Going to be seeing her sometime this weekend. Moving this weekend. Working this weekend. Lots of classwork. Yep, the life of a law student.
And I wouldn't EVER have it any other fucking way.
Everything's different
My head in the clouds
I hit this corner
With my foot on the gas
I started sliding
I lose it
Everything's different
Just like that
Oh my God
Wait and see
What will soon become of me?
Frozen heart
Screaming wheels
Does that screaming come from me?
So damn lucky...
