Sorry for the long delay in posting- I am trying to get my self in the game... and then trying to run away at the same time.
Last week was my 23rd birthday. My friends (including- yes- the illusive law students) took me out to dinner to a hibachi grill. Soo yummy and tasty. I also loved how they made a volcanic onion.
Afterwards, we went back to my friend Megan's place, where we ordered insomnia cookies for dessert. An insomnia cookie is a freshly baked cookie that comes to your door by delivery with a serving of milk. Very yummy. My friends decorated the place with party hats and favors. I felt good to be here :-)
On my actual birthday I went to class all day and drove home. Mom made homemade manicotti and I got to hang out with my lovable family (My nepolti are STILL the cutest in the world) and play some Wii with Gina.
Next morning I drove up to RI to see my birthday buddy and relax. I made him funfetti cupcakes with fresca- yes fresca- instead of eggs and oil. His guy roommates could tell the difference. Booyah for good diet recipes!!!
Now, I am back at PSU trying to figure out how to save the world- one law case at a time. I am feeling much better with all the work, and am REALLY excited to right my closed brief for legal writing. Our fact pattern includes a Title IX issue, sex discrimination, in a university. More real life an issue instead of another weird fact patter based on Ferris Bueller's day off.
But all in all, things are good here. I don't regret letting my grades slip to one of my friends (what the last post was about- oddly enough, I saw Fight Club for the first time after that post). But, I am working on just staying in the present and not get to overwhelmed.
Hope all is well with everyone!
