Busy Today and All Weekend

I spent the weekend at my mom's doing workies. Now I'm back in Newark doing workies. But first -- the Simpsons.

Thankful

I guess yesterday I should have talked about what I am thankful for rather than bitch-out Rachael Ray.

I am thankful for:
1. my family and friends who love me unconditionally
2. being lucky. Even when it seems like things aren't going my way -- they always are.
3. an intact sense of humor
4. the opportunities I have been afforded
5. the opportunities I have yet to experience
6. a level of humility

There are probably more... but let's not go overboard. Cheers Friends! I hope you remember what you are thankful for too.

And I'm not the only one

There is also a "Recall Rachael Campaign" which plans to unseat the Royal Highness of Stupiddumb by emailing FoodNetwork Click HERE.

You Decide - Part IV

Time again for another "You Decide."
Today we are deciding: Who is the biggest ass?


Tim Stupidass Allen -- Monkey Wrench Goon


Pretend carpenter from Clean Sweep who smears paint on the walls with his hands every friggin' episode


Cheapass Bitch

This is what the puppy do

Same puppy. New room color.

Loser?

I like to gauge what a loser I am by seeing how many people on my buddy list are online. Right now there are 4 (out of 55) and 2 of them have little phone icons next to their screen name indicating that they aren't even near their computers. As for the other remaining 2 who are actually online, one has be idle for 3:52 hours and the other is Ryan's little brother who has his away message up. Survey says: loser.

On a brighter note, my room color is gorgeous... so gorgeous I think I will post it. Well, the color looks terrible with my awful quality camera phone. Oh well -- take it from me = it is DEEP purple.

Pit

I'm looking forward to retreating to my deep purple room. My sister says that it looks like it is always night. Go figure, that's what I like.

I'm kind of sad lately but I'm going to pretend that the sadness is fictional -- that I have just made it up to procrastinate. Which is entirely possible.

I'm thinking of getting a chandelier for my bedroom at my mom's. It would be so dream-like and gothic. Maybe I should turn into a goth. Are there goth lawyers?

Holiday Party

The holiday party was Thursday night. I wasn't going to go because I really don't prefer to socialize (and I made a loyal ass of myself first year -- *fingers crossed* -- that I hope most people forgot) but I felt like I should go. And so I did. Here I am with Liz:

(note those goons behind us)

Here is my Bear with Scott:


And here we are being all crazy and shiz-ite!

You Decide - Part III

Today we will be deciding if my professor looks like Andrew Jackson. The floor is open for comments.




If you have to ask which one is my professor please just vote that they look the same. Or admit that you are clearly broke and have never seen a $20 bill.

maybe I'll crack or maybe I'll slip away in the inside of a grape

Gives Me Flowers Through the Headaches

Is this the good news? There are flowers in Winter? (okay... fall...but *drama,* People!) Anyway, I've been having migraines every day for the past few days. It just feels like I want to crack open my head to let out the pain. So this is the plant that my old housemate Heather gave me... because I was loving it and watering it. And here the planty is! She's blooming for me. I give her water and light. And then she gives me flowers.

Do It Again

I would like to go back to high school and have some do-overs. I was never a person who could look back at my life and regret. But, at this point, I even regret that mentality. I just want to whisper to the high school me a few pearls of wisdom. And then I want to listen to Nirvana.

Hibernation Begins

The hibernation for finals begins. They are swinging around the corner in 3 weeks -- and that, Friends, is not much time to get armed for battle. I'm going into combat baby.

Lights of Eyes

see, louise is engaged.



but she hasn't forgotten me or ryan. we're still the lights of her eyes!

Update

I took the MPRE and I have no idea how it went. Maybe I got them all right. Maybe I got them all wrong. Maybe somewhere in between. Really, it is a crap shoot. I'm guessing I will have to take it again in the spring.

My sister got engaged last night!!! WOW. So, that's pretty big news.

And that's it. I'm home again this weekend at my mom's. Just trying to get prepared for finals since they are coming up in a few weeks! HOLY CRAP I'M NOT READY.

Cheers!

Walking the Plank

I'm going off to Mommy's tonight to take the MPRE tomorrow at Brooklyn Law. At least I get to see my family. YAY. I also finally got my butt to the bookstore and realized they sell the book that I have been trying to order online. WOW. I guess the obvious pays off. When in need of a book go to the bookstore.

Predictions are poor usually

I am watching the Bachelor. That's right. I should be doing my work but I'm not. I'm watching another reality tv show. I really hope that he sends Cynthia home tonight b/c I like her the least. She was a real bitch when Jayne was upset a few episodes back. So I think she should take a HIKE! TAKE A HIKE CINDY. But I will probably be wrong. Probably definitely.

Tonight I couldn't find my MPRE admissions papers... and my brain almost came out the top of my head I got so stressed. But it is SO typical for me not to be able to find something that is very important. But I found it. So there.

_____________________________________________

I changed my mind. They're both assholes anyway. They really need each other. I hope she's the one to get the final rose.

_____________________________________________
I was right and then wrong. I hate when that Byron left her with the tired line of "how lucky the guy who she will eventually be with is so lucky and that the woman shouldn't settle for less than the best."
And then she said: "Oh yeah... I have an idea. Why don't you go f&*K yourself. And then when your done stuff it up your big fat butt, Buttface...Assbutt." Kidding! She didn't say that!

Oh dear, next week we are going to have to find out how Cindy had a meltdown when she went home.

Coming out of the dark

This is to prove that I don't have 2 black eyes. It's just me. All
not injured. Don't worry.

Hate to admit it

I hate to admit it but I am watching the Rebel Billionaire. And I really like it. And I find Richard Branson, although unnecessarily daring, quite sincere. And that's all the news for now.

Call it what you will but it's my life

Here I am with my new haircut. For those of you who know me... this
haircut is not much different than how it usually looks when I get it
cut. But... nonetheless... it is still a new haircut since it is long
overdue. I don't know if you can see the color but it is redder than
usual. A little fun now that I'm not interviewing anymore. I took the picture in semi-darkness because my camera-phone has TERRIBLE quality and it kept creating weird boxes of light on my face. I felt like a supermodel b/c all the pictures I took to get this one except that supermodels have a whole team of photographers while I just have me.

I am thinking now that I will be working in Elizabeth I should get a stun gun. It really appeals to me. Here is more info about stun guns. Too bad I'm such an alarmist.

Brisk Monday

A cold front is here and I am a happy-babby. I thrive on chilly weather.

As for my deep interest in real estate, since I have my life mapped out for me until August 2006 (YIKES -- I will be 28), I have a very limited geographic area with which to explore and about which I may fantasize. (That was a confusing sentence.)

I picked a paint color for my bedroom at my mom's house (isn't that nice that she keeps my room as my room and not a library/study/exercise room/hobby room... which is what I hear happens to other people). I picked Benjamin Moore color Sea Life. It is a dddddeeeeeeeepppppp grey/purple. So it will be like I am far under the sea in a sleepy cocoon.

That's all the news. I'm just looking forward to starting the week -- being committed to clinic and school. And I'm so glad I don't have to go on the 3 recently cancelled interviews this week. :-D YAY.

Relaxing YAY

I got my haircut today and color. A little punch for the colder weather. I will post a picture soon.

I'm at my mom's house this weekend and my grandparents came over for dinner. Now I'm watching a wildlife show. Just relaxing because ... now that I have a job.... somehow.... things are less desperate.

And I'm still open to congratulations posts.

Tears (of joy?)

To make things really really great... I had my mock trial yesterday and I was a rock star. I was a ligitatorstar. That's right. I wasn't nervous. I was suave. AND THEN ........ to make things really even greater... I signed onto Lexis and I am the sweepstakes winner this month so I have a chance to win a Lexus and I got 1500 points.

Have you ever seen the Restatsis commercial where the woman's eyes can't produce enough "tears?" I hate it so much that every time I see it I (aloud) threaten to beat the crap out of her to help her produce tears.

ALL CAPS INDICATE GOOD NEWS

I GOT OFFERED A CLERKSHIP IN ELIZABETH NEW JERSEY TODAY! OH HOORAY HOORAY!

Are they evil?

Helper Monkey.

Whoops! Sorry, monkey-wife!

Like Christmas?

It is a little like Christmas except this time Santa might leave coal.

Monkeys and Other Things

Click here: this is sufficiently frightening and funny.

I have also found a dream home. Unfortunately, it is about an hour from school, I have no car, I would have to pay for gas and parking in Newark, and I have a lease right now that is not up until the end of July 2005. Click here for dream house.

I am getting my hair cut on Saturday and I couldn't be more excited. The last time I went was probably APRIL and I highlighted my own hair this summer... which turned out to be a mistake (again)... so I am long overdue.

No Posting Potential

I have very little to report. My thoughts have been really bland. My life is really pressured. Mock trial in 2 days. I feel actively unready.


But then again, there is always the dancing M.
