You know, I don't know how many days it has been since I joined xanga.

I don't even know who reads this anymore.

Many things in my life have changed.  Where I live, what I study, who I date, my friends, interests, etc.

And yet, one thing, I think, will always remain the same.

I will always be the student who is still up at 2am panicking b/c SHE IS NOT VERY GOOD AT BEING A GOOD STUDENT.

Sigh.

 

Back to work.

In the summer, I never have as much time for myself as I think I will.  I do more things with my life, but the little things like putting on my favorite lotion or testing out a new recipe or going outside to look at the stars with a telescope are brushed aside and forgotten.  And when I think of them, I feel like 'Oh, I can do those things whenever...I have plenty of time."  Except then summer slips away and then it's back to school again.  I think this is my last summer, actually.  I have to grow up some time, haha.

Just being crushed by each final as it comes.

Um....PR = joke (not funny one).

Antitrust = bloodbath.

Corporate tax = ???  Probably certain death.  I have never studied so hard in my life for a test.  And I still know nothing!

No rest for the weary.

It's been a long time since I've thought about how amazing molecules are....

Wow, for a second there I couldn't remember how to post a weblog.  Oops.  Could be because I haven't been here in awhile, but more likely because my brain functions are exponentially decreasing with each passing moment.  For the past few days I have been reading and rereading passages that look like this:

"The transferor may be forced to recognize gain if the principal purpose behind the debt assumption was to avoid income tax on teh exchange.  Even if the taxpayer's principal purpose is not tax avoidance, the trasnaction is tainted if the taxpayer's principal purpose for the assumption was not a bona fide business purpose...The taxpayer bears the burden of proving teh debt assumption shoudl not be treated as money by a clear preponderance of the evidence.  Thus, a taxpayer who borrows money against equity in a piee of property shortly before transferring it to a corporation is likely to run afoul of Section 357(b)...."

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz.

Oh wait, just kidding cuz I can't fall asleep.  But I have just read that paragraph for the 22nd time, and I know it is written in English, but somehow...I just don't understand it.

Yesterday we had a 41 page final that was only 3 hours long.  It had 40 multiple choice and 6 short essay questions.  It was on rules.  The Multiple choice questions had page long fact patterns with mispellings and were badly written.  Some of them had five choices like I-V after the fact pattern.  And then there were 5 answer possibilities for those five choices on top of the fact pattern.  I was sooo angry because I studied really hard because it would be embarassing not to be able to pass the Professional Responsibility test, but this test was ridiculous.  IN the end, most people ran out of time, so it became a wild multiple guess luck of the draw test.  That is not what law school is supposed to be.

And my friend and I have commenced eating our feelings and anxieties away.  Mine are currently stored in my freezer in a lovely little plastic box labeled "Belgium cream puffz".  Delish.

In other news, almost done getting my rabies shots.  Wheee!!  But seriously it is getting to be a drag to get up and get them in the mornings.  The lady who did it for me today was really good with the needle, it hardly felt like anything.  The worst ones were definitely the immunoglobin or whatever that was that they had to do by ratio to my weight.  And thank goodness I am not 250 pounds b/c that would be like....15.2 mL and that would be like 8 shots and I don't know how creative they'd have to get in finding muscles to shoot them in.

Also, who cares, but...I think Jon from Jon and Kate + 8 is totally cheating on Kate b/c neither me nor any of my 23/24/25 year old friends....or even 28 year old friends hang out with married 40 year old men.  Much less alone, and at 2 am while their wife is out of town.  Just sayin'.... Suuuuuper shady.  Okay I just checked and apparently he is only 33 which is not that old but I think we can add a year for every kid he has which makes him unofficialy 41 and therefore a creepster.
