Full disclosure: Usually, a post by Jason on his blog triggers guilt on my part for failing to post updates on my blog. I am now acting on that guilt after Jason’s post today. lol.
Lots of updates since last we met:
Classes: Finals are a week away and I’m in a study frenzy. Please wish me lots of luck that I get better grades than last semester!
Extracurriculars: Wigmore Follies (our school’s parody show) was fantastic! I had a lot of fun working with a bunch of talented individuals. It was definitely one of the highlights of my law school experience thus far. I am also getting heavily involved with other groups: I am the incoming co-president of OUTLaw, the community outreach chair of the Latino Law Students Association, and treasurer of our acapella group, Habeas Chorus. Next year will be BUSY.
Spring Break: Was phenomenal! I had a great time in Puerto Rico with Jason and his friends. The second half of my break was spent in Cambridge with Jason, catching up on school work and living out my fantasy of what it would be like if Jason and I went to law school together… That’s all I’ll say on that for now…
Summer: A last minute offer from the Department of Justice, Civil Rights Division means that I will be splitting my summer, spending the first half in DC (with Jason, who will also be in the Civil Rights Division) and the second half in NY working for the ACLU LGBT & AIDS Project (the first place that offered me a summer job). I will pretty much have no time off as I will be leaving Chicago right after I complete the Law Review writing competition after finals and return right before classes start at the end of August. But I am super excited to see all my DC and NY friends this summer, woot! =)
This will probably be it until after finals so, again, wish me luck and I’ll catch you on the flip side!
The view departing from paradise - Puerto Rico... happy thoughts...
