What's going on...

Okay Okay, I'm tired of getting yelled at for not posting on a regular basis. It's really not my fault this time. My computer died right before exams and I still haven't gotten it back. But I guess that excuse isn't working anymore, so I'll give you an update on what's happened.

I'm now in my last semester of law school!!! So far, it's been the worst yet as far as the classes I'm taking. Federal Practice and Secured Transactions may cause me to drop out even though I've come oh so close. My "easy" class turned out to be a death trap, as I got grilled by a pretend judge for half an hour on my birthday...

Which leads me to my next update. I am now halfway to fifty, or a quarter of a century old. How depressing. On top of that, the groundhog saw his shadow which means six more weeks of winter.

Other items of interest...I went to Key West and the Bahamas and then to New Orleans over winter break. Definitely the best winter break ever.

The Cruise: It was my first ever, and what an awesome post-exam getaway. I went with my best friend from law school, Ann Marie, and we made the most of every minute. We tanned, ate delicious food, sang karaoke (Aretha Franklin's RESPECT), and danced every night in the club on the ship. By the end of the week, I was limping because my legs ached from all the dancing (or was it from getting lost in Key West?) I know I'm probably going to hear a lot of junk talkin about this next part, but I think most of you know by now anyway (and have already given me a hard time) so here it goes...We met some hot guys on the ship that were our age, only to find out that they live in Myrtle Beach. We hung out a few times after the cruise and before you know it, I have a new boyfriend. He's a sweetheart, super cute, and he can keep up with me on the dance floor. I guess we will see what happens; it's still pretty new. Okay, with that being said, go ahead and joke... I can take it.

New Orleans: I'm sure most of you have already heard about the New Orleans trip from some of the others that went. My words wouldn't do it justice. Nothing prepares you for the damage and loss you see everywhere. A thriving city turned into a ghost town. We just don't realize how fortunate we are. The sad part is that people have forgotten about them now that the publicity has died down. And with our President saying it looks like the old New Orleans, I'm not sure more help will know to come. The truth is thousands of people completely lost their homes and thousands and thousands more have homes still standing but no one to help them make it safe to live in again. Please keep the city in your prayers, and donate your time, money, and efforts if possible.
On a lighter note, I discovered I look super hot wearing a gas mask and goggles with mold and dust in my hair.

That is about all I got for now; I'll try not to wait so long til I post again. :)

Boyfriend? This guy must be incredibly smooth to land you with only a 4 day window of opportunity.

haha ok ok guys, i definitely did not go on a cruise looking for a boyfriend, i just thought it would be fun to find one to ummm....hang out with for the week. ;) i certainly did not expect him to say "so when i can see you again?" it kind of ruined my whole mystery cruise romance story, but it's been an interesting development.
