So Much to Do...

Last day of the Thanksgiving long weekend. Drove up this morning with Boyfriend back to law school and listened to Arthur Miller on the way. It's interesting to see how much more I know now, listening to these tapes 3 months later. Last time I touched those tapes was when Boyfriend and I were driving up to Montreal... Fun times! But back then I didn't know a lot of civil procedure. Not that I know that much now. Just more than before...

I have a lot to do in the next few days. First, 10-page open memo is due on Tuesday, which means I'll be spending most of tomorrow evening writing it. Yuck. I have already worked on it off and on during the last few days, did the research, and so on. The research for this memo was very depressing, because it involved a lot of stalking cases, which were very scary to read about.

I also need to start looking for a job for this summer, since December is rapidly approaching. Talked with DK over IM today about this. He's appying to a lot of private firm jobs and wants to be in New York, although doesn't yet want to rule out international, either. I mostly want to do international, but have no idea where to start or how to look. Sounds like it's time to make an appointment with the public interest office...

Then, I also need to complete readings and really start studying for final exams. I did 2/3 of a civ pro exam and 2/3 of a torts exam over break. Not fun. I don't think I did that well, either. The torts exam involved a policy question so broad it was almost absurd. Basically, it said "discuss the role of the court in torts claims..." and I was like "WHAT?! You expect us to talk about this in an hour?!? Absurd..."

My study group is meeting this Tuesday instead of Monday because of the open memo.

Even though there's so much to do, I kind of look forward to going back to school again. Yay. :)
