I wish I wasn't so sleepy...

Or else I'd do a proper update with pics and not just a lame ass copy from an e-mail. Unfortunately, it is 4am here in Mad Land and I need to hit the sheets because I have to get up early tomorrow for still more training

HEY Sorry it's been eons since I responded to your comment of: "wow I'm so glad you're happy with your assignment and its so wonderful!" I'm sure it's kinda WAY after the fact but THANK YOU! I really do enjoy my site and it's been a blast now that we actually live there as well. How is law school going for you? I've been seeing snippets of updates on Facebook and it seems fine? Hope all is well. Miss our LJ chats!

law school absolutely sucks lol. life is good here... but school itself sucks. when you get back to the states and are bored one day and want to read a novel on the ups and downs of law school - I would recommend checking out all my posts. it's really ridiculous.

I totally understand being in another country and barely having internet so thanks for taking the time to respond, even though it's 4 months later!

Oh man!!! If I have time today after responding to all these damn e-mails (LOL), I wanna go back and try to read. My friend's experience at GWU (I assume that's where you finally went?) seemed like it was tough but overall he enjoyed it! How are you liking DC? How is John? Did he get a job there? I'm sorry but I may need a CliffNotes version.

you had a friend who went to GW Law?! I think I vaguely remember that haha. I like law school, but the stress and workload is terrible

[qtfriend2all]

WOO! Wow, that was like a movie... Kinda sad at points (OMG IS HE WORKING FOR THE US GOVT?! Why did he have to give up Colombian citizenship? That freaking SUCKS!). Congrats to your mom on her new marriage! Congrats to you for being able to party AND do law school hahaha. What kind of stuff will you do with the Hispanic Association? I really like DC... so diverse! And now with the Obamas coming, OMG I am jealous of you! Wasn't it just amazing?! Ahh, I really need to settle down. Eventually lol.

- john's working for a govt contractor - so basically yes
- yeah my mom seems happy, though the trip was eh
- party and law school work better at the beginning of the semester
- hispanic association... networking events, resume review, 1L info session
- I love DC too and yeah there was parties at the white house on tuesday night but I was too tired from voter protection! I already have two friends who have dibs on my couch for the inauguration.

I feel like we are having a gazillion convos at once haha

[qtfriend2all]

Hahaha That's because we are having a million convos at once! But I feel like I haven't missed a beat in your life. Well, maybe skipped a few but the overall rhythm is flowin'! I'll try to post an update today. My focus is respond, respond, respond then update, update, update! Thanks for taking the time to write back to me. You're up late! :-P

[littlestarletta]

where are you right now? how is it you have net access?

no worries, I know it can be tough and you have an excuse hehe.

I am up late reading contracts. It's only a few pages but I am struggling argh.

[qtfriend2all]

I'm in the capital of Antananarivo because I suffered a minor dog bite but still had to be flown to get rabies booster shots since they're not offered in my city. A free 5-day vacation is nice, especially when I get to use the internet for free!!! :)

I actually have free internet at my site but it is MUCH slower and because I'm so busy when I'm at my site, I usually access the net every 1.5 weeks and then when I am on there, I get so overwhelmed by all the messages, want to try to read news, etc. It's a harrowing experience! So, most times I am able to READ e-mails but not necessarily respond to them. It sucks, but I'm just glad we're serving in a country where I even get internet access at all! It's nice! :)

Don't struggle! Attack the contracts. They love you and soon, you too will love them hahaha. Man, my occasional thoughts of trying for law school again are always derailed by the tales of law school students. You are a brave one, mujer!!!
