Blame the Nazis.

Just What Is Needed

For the upcoming annual meeting of the ABA: Law Student Division. It certainly saves one from the awkwardness of asking questions.

I'm Sure We'll Make Next Year's Cut

Next Year's Schedule Is Set

Two finals each semester, three classes during the spring semester, only Tuesdays and Fridays on campus during that last semester of law school, and my very last final is on May 15.

Snippet From The Night That Was

Actually, I'm pretty much done with the snippets seeing how I don't remember much else. So if anyone can help me remember, please do so in the comments. The more embarrassing, the better. And I do sincerely apologize to those I owe an apology to, which - from what I've been gathering as the stories trickle in - is everyone who was at Level One that night.

If Law School Doesn't Work Out VII

Looks like someone beat me to Plan G. And while he seems to be whining about it, it doesn't seem to be so bad that he's had to quit. Imagine that.

Porn stars, porn gossip scribes and porn production workers are turning to blogs to expose what it's really like to live and work in the San Fernando Valley-based sex industry. "There's this image that being a male porn star is glamorous, that you get to have sex with all the women you ever wanted," said Luc Parry, a 32-year-old law school dropout from Boston who has been chronicling his recent career turn as a male porn star on Diary of a Porn Star.

As Parry writes on his blog, the reality can be different. From female co-stars who give him the cold shoulder and fall asleep on-set, to Herculean struggles to maintain an erection for hours at a time while being denied lunch, Parry's portrayal of the porn star life is anything but glamorous.

Taking a law school exam on an empty stomach because of a loss of appetite - hard. Keeping it up while being denied lunch (I can't even begin to imagine why, but whatever) - probably not as hard (excuse any lame unintended pun).

There Needs To Be A Day For This?!

Scheduling Next Year

Fall
ADR - Aronovsky
Computer Assisted Litigation - Galves
Interviewing, Counseling & Negotiating - Gunning
Remedies - Schmitt
Trial Advocacy - Rolnick

The fall is pretty much set in stone since I have a fairly decent registration priority number for that semester.

Spring
Administrative Law - Newcombe
California Civil Procedure - Sheehan
Civil Pretrial Practice - Raeder
Intellectual Property - Faerman
Jurisprudence Seminar - Pugsley
Legislation - Grimes
Mass Tort Litigation - Stier
Wills and Trust - Berger

The only class I'm certain of is Berger's Wills and Trust class. The others I'm only considering. I know that Prof. Rolnick is teaching ICN during the Spring but since my priority number is 144 for the spring I'm uncertain that I'll get into that class, otherwise I'd take it with her instead of with Gunning in the fall. Any thoughts by anyone who has taken the classes with the respective professors? Or any thoughts at all? Other than "penis."

What A School Year That Was

I have to say, 1L was a more enjoyable experience than 2L was. Agree?

Keyword Of The Day

I didn't know Brian brought his camera with him, not that he would share with the French though.

If I Were In Similar Circumstances

I'd like to be identified only as John Doe too.

Guess who has a job?!

Ladies and gents, I've joined the ranks of my colleagues - Brian, Angela and all those other employed SW students. After a morning of writing cover letters, emailing resumes and sending out faxes, I got a phone call from a firm less than a mile from my apartment. They scheduled an interview for 2:30, and after calling one of my references, I had the job by 4 PM.

I start training tomorrow so my vacation is officially over. Awww...

Well If There Ain't No Real Purpose For Having One

Then I ain't giving them one. And yes, I'm still single.

Picking Classes

I'm thinking about taking Pugsley's seminar class, entitled "Jurisprudence", during the spring semester. But I don't think it promises the same... um... "tort-on-tort" action that someone would have led me to believe.

Quiz Time

Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational.

$1,000 Bar/Bri Refund

In lieu of my refund, I'll be asking for certain "favors" from a certain rising 1L.

Nevermind that I have yet to sign up for Bar/Bri.

That lamb sounding sound emanating from Brian's bathroom the morning after? Me.

If anyone sees a pair of tonsils in a pool of vomit - probably dried up vomit by now - please send them back to their rightful owner. That would be me.

Interviewing Advice

I've always thought that if given the chance to be interviewed, they've already pretty much decided that you can do the job. The question to be answered during the interview then isn't whether you're qualified to do the job but whether they want to be working with you. I think #3 is confirmation of that.
