So-So Day

I missed both of my morning classes today. :( I'm not proud of it, but decided that I cannot pull off another day with only 3-4 hours of sleep. So I slept an astounding 7.5 hours today, and feel pretty refreshed.

However, my reaction paper this week for the political economy workshop -- which was due this afternoon at 4, was not very good, and I am a little upset about that. I thought I had a reasonably good topic, but 3 hours before the deadline, I reviewed the paper that we were supposed to react to, and realized that the topic had already been discussed in the paper, THOROUGHLY. So... I had to scratch much of what I had already written (charts and all!) and tried to bulk up the parts of the reaction paper that could be salvaged... which was not a lot.

Had dinner with ABS at C-House tonight and griped about work, then read in his room for a while. Came back and began reading and preparing for the meeting with Professor M about my pet topic: law and narratives (storytelling). Because of all the RAing and the independent reading, I am now reading more law review articles than ever before. I wish I had started on this earlier, because it is so helpful in giving me research and writing ideas and just in general getting an idea of what legal scholarship is all about.

In other news, I got another callback which will probably fund a nice trip to Chicago during flyout week! This makes it 8 out of 10. Yay.

I should probably go to sleep soon though. Tomorrow, with interviews, 2 classes, and independent reading, will be a LONG day.
