It seems wildly ironic
that the law that “prohibits the transportation of women in interstate commerce for immoral purposes” is named the Mann Act.
just sayin’.

That stupid quote about FDR and Justice Roberts - “the switch in time that saved the Nine”.

oh hey, Saturday night. (I figured that if I was going to spend all this time staring at my Civ Pro notes, I might as well make them aesthetically pleasing.)

I seriously cannot get over this penguin cam. Like, I have a bunch of constitutional law stuff to read and a complaint to write and brief to edit - but no, I’m watching 300 penguins waddle around live instead.
and THIS ONE. He’s obsessed with the camera and he keeps squawking at it. favorite. ♥

First, Marquette has a campus! A real campus, with flowers and grass and more than one building! Who knew. (Well, judging by the number of people sprawled all over the grass, everyone except me.) Thanks to the 80 degree weather, I ventured outside. I found a bench. And I studied. And, I remembered that there are things like wind and sun and the chatter of people who don’t have to worry about how they are possibly going to write an entire brief and an essay and do 70 page outlines for three different classes in the next six weeks. In short, there’s more than driving to school, parking under the building, studying, retrieving my car from under the building, and driving back to my apartment. This one minute exposure of outside air per day thing has got to go.
Second, said campus is quite nice. There’s benches everywhere. There’s tables. There’s nooks. There’s a lot of grassy knolls. And even though I almost face-planted off the stairs in front of the chapel, and even though I had prospective student tours walking by me every five minutes, I think I might venture outside my bubble a few more times. (Though granted, I almost said something when I was gestured at by a tour as one of the “freshmen” that likes to study by the chapel. As a general rule, people that are two years away from being a lawyer get cranky when you refer to them as college freshmen. I’m just saying.)

big kid preparation
You have been chosen to interview for the position of law clerk.
asdjklfjklajdf WHAT. I have an interview with a law firm for this summer. Where I would work M-F, 40 hours a week, (did I mention at a real law firm?), for more than minimum wage, where I would meet attorneys, where I could get real life experience, where I could continue to work part-time during the school year.
I think I’ll have another interview with a government agency if I can ever stop playing phone tag/leaving awkward and nervous voicemails for this other woman.
It’s just that I look really good on paper and that I can write my way out of anything, but in person I’m awkward and I can’t walk in heels and I’m not good at making stuff up on the fly about how great I am. Also, my hair still looks like Ronald McDonald’s (in more ways than one) and I’m going to need to fix that to look professional.
On the other hand, I am two years away from being a lawyer and it’s time I pull it together.
FOCUS, GIRL.
