hello blogosphere

and by blogosphere, i mean tom. i know, i know, i haven't posted in forever. i would like to say that this marks yet another time in which i will come back and blog more frequently, but that's probably a lie. things are only going to get more hectic. plus it's hard to motivate to write because the only person who really reads my blog is the same person who lives with me and knows everything that's going on in my life. at the same time, i make no effort to publicize my blog or update it regularly, so i know i have no one to blame for that but myself.

here is a list of things that have happened since the last time i wrote on my blog. this list is not comprehensive.
1. i finished my summer job at the us department of education, in the ny office for civil rights. it was awesome.
2. i made law review!! that was pretty exciting and unexpected. however,
3. i had to skip my usual weeklong vacation at pawley's island because of law review orientation, which was kind of tragic. i went down there for one night, but it just wasn't the same. my relaxation quota for the year is, as a result, far, far lower.
4. i interviewed with 28 big new york law firms.
5. i spent probably a hundred hours trying to figure out where to work next summer. i still haven't decided. in order to avoid googling, let's just say i'm picking between firms whose names rhyme with schmebevoise and gimpson hatcher.
6. um, oh yeah, i started school.
7. it was tom's birthday! he got a wii!
8. i got my wisdom teeth out. that really sucked.
9. i made plans to go visit julia in france for thanksgiving!! yaaaaay! i'm probably going to be really stressed out by the end of november as a result, but it will totally be worth it.

all right, that's all i have to say. i'm going to go do homework.
