Memo due tomorrow

I have a memo due tomorrow. I'm a little scared. I have it all written, but I don't know if it's good. I didn't actually think I was done, until I realized that I had been writing in size 10 font instead of 12. Well that certainly increased my paper by about 5 pages! So today will be bluebooking and finding a few more cases to use for cites. I'm a little freaked out by how it doesn't seem to be that rushed or frantic. I might actually have time to read for my other classes this week. Actually only 2 days of classes...well 1.5. I may or may not go to my Tuesday class, the prof expects it. Plus that's the night I leave to go see LIAMMMMMMMM!!! I get to Ireland on Wednesday morning and Liam gets in Thursday morning. So I'll have a whole 24 hours while in Ireland to take a couple of practice tests! Oh it should be so fun...

I LOVE GLEE

Things I'm taking away from this week's episode of Glee.

  1. Watching it right now and it's so amazing. It's finally back to it's former glory. I'm surprised they didn't come up with this subplot earlier. I mean come on, Mr. Shuester it totally hot. He would most definitely be that teacher who was unable to be alone with a female student for fear of impropriety.
  2. There was at least one of those teachers that was asked to leave due to some "rumors." They weren't so much rumors as they were being found sleeping with students in the locker rooms. Awkward!
  3. I was very much hoping that Rachel's gift to Mr. Shuester's gift would have been cute undies. But I guess that would be inappropriate.
  4. Susie Pepper and her hot chili pepper were awesome.
  5. Kurt's fake playing was really not that great. I mean I don't play the piano, but is your entire upperbody supposed to move up and down like that.
  6. Finn's breakdown in front of his mom was really hard to watch. You really got to see not only Finn's pain, but his mother's. She has only wanted the best for her son and to know what this would all mean for him. QUINN TELL THIS POOR BOY!!! I want the whole story line to go away. Terri's show during the Susie Pepper bit is about all I can take of her per episode.
  7. Mr. Shuester's medley made me melt. I'm right there with you Rachel & Emma, I don't know what he said, but it was dreamy. And why are Rachel's skirts so damn short!
I need to stop the running commentary so I can actually get back to watching.

P.S. I think I'm going to break down and get on of these.

Why didn't I have this bright idea!?

1/2 of my CivPro class showed. I was in the half that sat attentively listening to every word. Or I spent the entire time looking up cases on Lexis. I'm so glad that there are only 4 more weeks until this first semester is over. I'm trying to keep calm, trying not to freak. Maybe I just need to start drinking...

Absent

As you may or may not have noticed I have been neglecting my blogging duties for a few days. It's memo time and I'm freaking out a little bit, but not so much. Trying to break everything down into manageable little chunks is the way I'm tackling it. I just hope I'm not getting bogged down in the intricacies.

Work is actually causing some undue stress right now and I totally don't need it. I'm usually looking forward to the workweek as one more week closer to Liam and the end of the semester. I'm kind of dreading it a bit and I'm not baking tonight, so I wonder what everyone will be thinking of me when I walk in empty handed.

Liam and I have vowed to stick with me going to school for this year (leases are really hard to break), but it's times like this when I just want to chalk the whole thing up to an interesting life experience. I love my classes, well I love Contracts, but the stress just makes me want to get on a plane and help Liam decorate our new place. I have also started pulling my hair again! That's certainly not good, I don't yank it out, but I'll obsessively run my fingers through it. My desk is covered in hair (EW!) I'll fix this by going to get my hair done next Friday, but still, stress level is certainly rising.

While it may seem like I'm throwing myself a pity party I don't mean to. But with 4 weeks left before the end of the semester I want to fast forward and see you all on the 23rd. Unfortunately I can't, so I'll soldier on and hope I make it through with a full head of hair and non-failing grades.
