pleasure and pain (not pornographic content)

i am currently enjoying the theoretical last two weeks of classes.

theoretical because this is up law. and these classes are taught by up law profs who forget that they were once young and cared about little things like sleep and vacation. so you never know really if summer starts in may or when the calendar and weather forecasts say it should.

i'm enjoying it because i am proud to say that i have worked and studied my hardest this year, or to be accurate, i have actually worked and studied this year. i have been to 90% of my classes, which as my blockmates can attest to is alarmingly high in light of the fact that i hate going to class with any regularity.

i have forsaken drinking every other day for my readings and my digests. i have forsaken new clothes and new shoes and having my nails done for paying for aforesaid readings and digests. i have even been suspended from my law org for not attending general assemblies and pictorials which were in conflict with the classes i used to be so willing to cut.

my dates with my cootie have even involved study-work dates in starbucks instead of things otherwise normal people would do. like movies and drinking and oh, i dunno, having a life.

but still, all in all, i'm happy things are this way, and i can only hope my newfound enjoyment of law school will be sustained over the next few years (in spite of the best efforts of snivelling weasels, whiny pseudo-religious self-righteous hypocrites, my professors, and myself).

may the kind gods of people who have erred and been drunk for two years and now have seen the light and are now less drunk look kindly on me and my efforts. and on people similarly situated as well. (this is my finals prayer)
