I really should have known that NoJoMo wouldn’t happen. I knew NaNoWriMo wasn’t going to happen, but I still had hopes for NoJoMo. It’s been a busy last several days, to say the least.  Looking back, it appears my last entry is from Thursday morning. So I’ll recap sin...

So Billy Budd thing has been turned in. All in all, I think Stephanie and I did well with the facts that we had to work with.  I read through it last night, and so did my dad and Philly (another friend of mine). There were a couple typos, but otherwise it was good.  Our…

  I have to admit I’ve been a little surprised at how well law school has gone thus far.  I’d expected a few bumps in the road, but truly there haven’t been any.  There have been a few apartment bumps (first electric bill was $50 – and that was for havi...

  I’m definitely not a fan of Herman Melville.  I’ve never had to read Moby Dick (something I’m VERY grateful for), but for criminal law, I’ve had to read Billy Budd.  First off, Melville’s writing style is a mess. He liked run-ons and way too much des...

There’s a girl in my crim law class who was only marginally prepared today and the professor did a bit of hammering. It’s painful to listen to.  Seriously people – this is law school. Come to class prepared. And so many of the questions he’s asking are not rocket scie...

  Yes, I admit I didn’t write yesterday due to my busy day.  Before I go into yesterday, let me go back to Saturday, following my last entry.  Badgers ended up winning their game. They came out in the second half raring to go and got three interceptions.  Following that,...

Since my mom’s coming later this afternoon and staying through tomorrow afternoon, I realized I needed to write today’s journal entry now, rather than waiting until later today. Thus far, I’ve spent the morning cleaning up my apartment :-P.   I’ve still got a lit...

I like days where I have just one class. Today I don’t have Civil Procedure (and that’s even better reason to do a squee!). Given that, I just have Torts today (which I’m in right now and going back and forth between this entry and taking my notes) so I’ll be done with act...

Brrr is the name of the game through Saturday morning.  High today of 48, but given the cold north wind, (and as I type this, it’s drizzling too) it’s not going to feel that warm. When I left for class about 10:30, we were at 47 degrees, but with the wind, it felt like 41. &...

  I can only shake my head over the election results, especially in Wisconsin.  I honestly thought Wisconsinites were smarter than that.  Part of campaigning is telling people what you’d do if elected. How else can people know what they’re getting with you?  And ye...
