i love cigarettes. i know that they're horrifically bad for me and that the tobacco industry is the evil incarnate...but there is no better part of my day than when i can stop doing everything else, step outside, and enjoy 10 minutes of nicotine. it's a satisfaction like no other. clearly, yes, i have the whole physical addiciton thing goin' on, but i think i...

me: i want you all to make it your mission to find me a boyfriend.

ray: you don't need a boyfriend.

me: i know. i just go through bouts of disliking being single. and this is one of those bouts.

ray: you just need to date.

me: i do date! i date all the time!...if by date you mean "sleep with my ex boyfriend."

but it's like the soul was sucked from everyone during the vacation. it's all stress and no substance. and it's making me kind of miserable. is this a shared malaise of all 1Ls?

I think it's playing out differently at my school than yours, but basically yes. Here's how much of a geek I am: I've actually been doing research on this topic. Here's one book that looks at the wider phenomenon of law school from a kind of critical/sociological perspective (usually I hate that stuff, but this seems pretty real). I've been looking up law review articles about grading, and stuff from the Journal of Legal Education, etc.

It's a coping mechanism, I guess. smile

I wasn't being facetious. I identified with your description. Despite the fact I'm very happy with my & vyeseleph's relationship, I couldn't read your posting without finding it a little disturbing.

so i'm having one of those dangerously self-pitying nights in which i get nostalgic for a false past and start doing stupid shit like reading emails from ex boyfriends, and rationalizing out the reasons why they all weren't so bad after all, and contemplating "just saying hi." i think i am sometimes overcome by a need for instant gratification that takes over and annihilates any...

I'm sure you could think of something. wink

But I hope you're better soon. And, thanks for the info.

Of Course I'll be your friend smile: School was always hard for me to concentrate on because most of my teachers were dumbasses that didn't know jack about what they were teaching. That sucks that you've been sick the entire time you've been back. So how did your friend make it home drunk and by himself?

warning: long narrative about my night. not all that exciting upon reading it again. but fuck it.

so let me tell you about my saturday. most of it was fairly typical - i slept a little late, ran a few errands, went to the library to study for a few hours. i was still itching to go out, but since today in boston is pretty...

Nice. I, as well, dislike the whole club scene. Too many drunken people in one place to have any real fun. Its good that your friend Ky got home safe. The whole fight thing is pretty nuts, I mean wow a pipe? Damn, I'm glad I don't live in a big city.

tonight, i pretended to be a grown up. i wore a suit, took off the chrome nailpolish, removed all the earrings and bracelets, wiped off the thick black eyeliner and slightly sparkly lipgloss. i wore sensible heels and pinstripes. i carried a legal pad with my name on it. i pretended to interview a client who was pretending to have a serious legal issue. and...

Some boys(including myself) might like being ruffed up a little by a sultry little siren like yourself biggrin Anywho I can understand you feelings toward the dress code of an attorny. I personally like wearng my combat boots, a studded wrist bracelet, and my thrash pants. Life, unfortunatly, is about compromise. So I guess you'll have to compromise your style for the few hours you are at work.
oddwobbler:
When I started my job in a warehouse the dress was casual, but as my duties moved into the really fucking uptight office attached to it, I still wore my big black boots and I just wore a dressier black shit over my Slayer concert tee, they were already used to seeing a longhaired freak amongst them but they'll never know I wear Scooby-Doo underoos under my black slacks, hell, I'll cut up a pair of long johns and wear them with a garter belt, even write "FUCK THIS JOB" on my chest with latex body paint, I really dosen't matter what you wear underneath, what can they do, ask you to strip?

And in another non sequitur...apparently some guy at my school got busted during finals for cheating on his Professional Responsiblity exam.

being sick - as horrible and miserable as it is - has made me realize what truly wonderful friends i have. friends who go out of their way to find me noodle soup without chicken broth, who go to classes they're not enrolled in so i have the notes, who rub my back and convince me that i am so much better off in bed...

Only way I can even get a day off anymore is to lose my voice, and that hasn't happened lately... whatever

My classes don't start until Monday...I'm getting grumpy and cynical in advance. When I get to be dicator of America, first thing I'll do is completely change legal education.

By the way, Egon is another SG member law student. I'm sure there are others, (and probably some suicide girl law students, too).

Hope you feel better soon.
