My new life...AGAIN

I haven't even lived in my house for a whole year yet and I already moved out! My new life is sort of top secret. You see I moved in with my boyfriend. *gasp* And the worst part is he hasn't met my family, nor have I met his. I have never been one to do things the conventional way but this might be a little extreme? I am also finding that being domesticated is much more fun on a voluntary basis. Once you are sort of expected to be molly fucking maid or whatever, it just isnt fun anymore. Not that LSBoy expects anything, because he doesnt and he takes damn good care of me I might add, its just that I guess...um I dunno maybe im just in a funk again. Whats new?

I'm not entirely sure I made the right decision yet about this moving in thing but I'm inclined to think that the way I feel is just an adjustment issue. Because I really do love him and we were together 24/7 anyway so this doesn't change much. In Jan. I moved from L.A. to my law school city. My high school friend let me rent a room. That transition was nothing short of tragic. I went on a three day drinking bender that took a month to recover from and was severely depressed for months. I ended up putting my precious cat to sleep and got a boob job all in a matter of weeks. My coping skills are clearly lacking. In short this lil moody hissy fit I'm having is mild compared to that.

On a good note...I'm still studying away :) I guess the difference between living in L.A. and emersing myself in my studies and now is that in L.A. I didn't have this handsome boy coming home to me after work to keep me company. I have found the happy medium--date a law school student, fall in love, and study all day long. Then live happily ever after in gut wrenching student loan debt. THE END.

Yuck!


This weekend:

My best friend left her husband
My boyfriends' mom's dog died
My dad is suffering from another hypertension episode from stress
My Grandpa is sick

I'm sick with worry.

Hatred

I have decided tonight that I pretty much hate all things cliche' more later...

Cyber Stalking


Did a little investigating on my new favorite professor twinkle toes and he is only 30 years old!!!! Can you believe it!! And I found a quote from him that says something along the lines of, I know I am a bit flamboyant and not everyone is comfortable with that.

Well Professor Twinkle Toes, rest assured I love flamboyant and I am so excited to see you in action this Thursday.



Today is Sunday and I have not done a gawd damn thing all weekend, well other than study. I find Con law to be painfully boring even though I thought I would love it. I guess it's always a crap shoot sometimes it's good reading and sometimes Marbury v. Madison is a total snooze fest.

Wish I had something interesting to say but this City is NO LA. I could walk down the street at any given time in LA and come home with a totally amusing story. Around here we got nothing.

Ironic post from last year

(Self proclaimed Psychic neighbor from LA)

He's leaning lazily on the wall casually taking hits from his handy dandy sneak-a-toke in the form of a plastic cigarette. I laugh he's funny. After the two magic words (Hi Sweetheart) I stop and chat. He asks me when my birthday is so I happily brag "Halloween!" Ohhhhhhhhhh.....he says. You will be an amazing lawyer. And by the way you won't be single for long I just have to tell you. There is someone at your school who likes you and you will like him. HAAAAAHA! I tell him I am avoiding boys at all costs. The once boy crazy neighborhood jewel ;) is on a boy diet. I just can't have the distraction. He says, "Don't worry he is in the same boat as you, he needs you to stay focused." Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat! I wonder which arrogant gunner fuck it is! I'm going to wear my boy repelent to school just to make sure this doesnt happen.

Wow...ain't that a bitch. His prophecy was realized and I couldn't be happier.

Introducing Twinkle Toes

Property has taken on a whole new look at my school. Its a mixture of pretentious arrogance, Broadway pizazz and UC Davis law all wrapped up into a little tiny bundle of preciousness called Professor Twinkle Toes!! YaY! It's almost as if he is going to break out into song and dance at any moment. He is fabulous. Smart, good story teller, nice balance of dark jokes mixed with witty back talk. He wears a beard to make himself appear more distinguished and probably because he couldn't be a day over 24...no seriously he's about 35. You can tell by his demeanor that he is the smart awkward type which i appreciate all too much.

He began the class with a knarly quiz. Ten REAL multiple choice questions, then he went through the cases very thoroughly. Professor Twinkle Toes says he believes in hide the ball but if you ask me it was more like spoon feed the ball. There was no hiding of anything. But I loved it because it reminded me of undergrad. I think I might really learn something in this class.

So Im heading to the library to get working on my new plan for success. I've done my due diligence and acquired some awesome outlines, and other supplements that the "good students" recommended. I'm still really hyped about it. I was so prepared for class last night and I felt so good, I was relaxed and engaged and happy to be there! I don't know why people subject themselves to the humiliation of not being prepared, its beyond me.

My weekend will be dull but I'm ok with it. This law school trip has been one crazy roller coaster from extra studious obsessive freak, to super slacker extraordinaire to back to the girl who studies....HARD! Weird.

Love law school

I am so excited for this semester. I love all my classes and I'm ready to kick some ass! The newness of my relationship has worn out ( a little ;) ) and I'm ready to focus! I did some quality studying today and put together a plan for success.

The dynamics of law school "friendships" changes dramatically after first year. In the beginning everyone loves everyone, then a few bar reviews later everyone really loves everyone, then one bad law review leads to the segregation, good vs. bad. The daytime students keep me updated on the drama and the top of the class are clearly the good students who do not partake in the debauchery of bar review. I like those guys!

This semester I will remain the "go-to girl" but I have a few tricks up my sleeve. I will no longer share my every secret study strategy unless there is a compelling reason to do so. Like, if your mom dies I might....might share my notes but i'll have to think about it. Up until now I've gone above and beyond to support my classmates both psychologically and intellectually (retarded I know). It's my nature....I think it's called co-dependence? Anyway, I'm over it. Game on biatches! I can't wait to show my sweety all the potential I have...cuz I can do great things when I put my mind to it. I'm ready!

So here's to second year and my steady climb to the top--cheers!

Confidence Booster

I ROCKED Transactional and Statutory Analysis!! I am so excited I had a bad last semester and needed this grade soooo bad. So here I am with one week left of summer break working on Civ Pro for next semester. I am determined to get back to the top of the class.

0-Ls dont let good grades your 1st semester make you over confident like I did because you will be sadly disappointed 2nd semester if you get lazy. Trust me I know. I was ready to throw in the towel after 2nd semester grades came out. Thank god I did so well this summer or I would seriously doubt my abilities.

Yayyyyyy!!!!!!!

Blah

I have a saying or ten...but one that I like is "If you don't want to get caught...don't do it." I have also always wondered why the hell people, like murderers, and cheaters keep diaries or journals. It is absolutely beyond me how these people are so sure they won't get caught. Once upon a time I had a journal. I kept it tucked away between the mattresses (very original, I know). And just like you would imagine it was found. My boyfriend at the time was in my room, I went to take a shower and came back to find him hysterical. Yes, he read the page about the ex boyfriend I was still so in love with. The pain in his eyes was indescribable and to this day I shudder thinking about it.

Well, lately I've felt compelled to write about the things I think, the truth about the things I think and I just can't bring myself to take the chance of getting caught. A lot of people come to me with their problems and I appreciate the fact that they trust my judgment and trust me enough to open up and vent. Plus god knows I always need an ear so to reciprocate the favor makes me feel good. The problem is sometimes I listen to them and formulate an opinion entirely different of the one I actually verbalize. This is horrible and doing nobody any favors. It's just that sometimes I think you have to bite your tongue because the person will find out how their situation will pan out on their own. And hopefully my opinion is wrong anyway.

Sometimes I just want to write about it...and scream about it because not telling the truth is not me. The stress that my true opinions could bring that person is just not worth it to me. As usual this post is going no where. The point is that I really wish there was a top secret way that I could vent and say what i really want to say without the risk of getting caught.

New Pet Peeve

Please understand that this post is not intended to offend anyone. There is no person I am secretly referring to in this post. These little annoyances are all based on society in general. So if you do any or all of these things it doesnt mean I love you any less, it just means that it is a phenomena I do not understand the purpose of.

That said here are my pet peeves

1. Weddings: I think they are so cliche' everything about them from the ridiculous white dress, to the ridiculous price tag, to the ridiculous DJ group dance songs. I abhor them and don't enjoy attending them. Also, I do not like to be in weddings so please don't ask me. My plan to avoid this spectacle is to get married at the courthouse and have a bad ass honeymoon.

2. Baby showers: Especially if it is your 3rd kid. I think they are so boring and pregnant people freak me out. My plan to avoid this....don't have kids. Plus I am bitter about being single and all the money I have spent on baby showers, kids birthdays, weddings, etc. When do I get a party and presents?

3. Myspace/FB updates: I enjoy a funny ironic sarcastic status update as much as the next guy. What I do not like are the people who tell everyone their deepest darkest secrets via FB status updates. How fucking immature is that? Its a chickenshit passive agressive way to take cheap shots at people who piss you off. My plan to avoid this ...easy I don't do it.

4. Self proclaimed mini Carrie (SITC) wanna be's. Those bloggers with the gratuitous "dont do this ladies" bullshit advice. It comes off so condescending.

5. People who get mad at me for avoiding them. I am a loner I get suffocated very easily.

6. People who quit because it takes some effort. Think outside of the box assholes.

7. When boys pee in the toilet and don't flush WTF!

8. People who don't floss

9. Disney movies

10. People who don't like animals
