Photo Shoot

Dear Blog Readers,
Since I had such a rough day yesterday trying to figure out eminent domain, I decided to take the day off and get some professional engagement pictures taken. Now, it might seem a bit odd, since I am not a party to the engagement. However, I felt that it was necessary for me to have my picture taken with Kirby and Topper (sister and brother). Kirby is getting married (about time, she IS pregnant already). Her husband-to-be was working at the salt mine today, and could not make it to the photo-shoot. However, I feel rested, relaxed, and stress-free. No class can really do that for you. Now I might have to study a little extra hard about res judicata, but I think I have it mostly down. (Res judicata: precluding a person from committing the same crime more than once. If they commit the same crime again, they will go to jail for twice as long, and get their throat sliced - not enough to die, just hurts a lot).

Here are the pictures. Enjoy! I know I did!Kirby and me, looking presh

That time again

Blog readers,
For those of you that did not know, I am a first year law student. Being that it's late April, I figure you can all guess that I am inundated with work.

Here is a synopsis of my bellyaches:
1. property: eminent domain? I can't even figure out what these two words mean when they are put together. Eminent means outstanding and famous. Domain is an area or territory controlled by the government. So the best I can figure is that when the government wants to take a famous and outstanding piece of property, they just start the proceedings. But they have to pay just compensation.
2. Civil Procedure: how can something so awful be so civil?
2.5: Largesse: what does this word mean. Did I make it up?
3. Legislative Process: as a proponent of the trustee theory, I cannot say much about this topic.
4. Legal Writing: I have never been so sure of something in my life, which is to say, IT IS CERTAINLY AND UNQUESTIONABLY TESTIMONIAL.

So, suffice to say, my roommates have been helping me study.
It's true what they say about friends (and roommates as friends!)! You try to study but it turns into a fun party! (evidenced above)

Now, please don't worry. My life is not all study, study, study. I do get to have fun every once in awhile (see above, and below)These are my friend Carolyn's roommates. Their names are Topper and Kirby. We have become really fast friends.

Here is a nice picture to end on:
