School today was...school, althoughas usual I quite enjoyed Evidence. I even screwed up my courage enough to approach Judge Benson after class today and ask about the chance of externing for him this summer. He put me in touch with one of his clerks, whom I emailed today. We'll see! The excitement happened after I got home, though. Fi stopped at the store on her way home and picked up a ...
Elise wrote a really great account of our week in Idaho on her blog; I'm feeling disinclined to repeat everything she said, 'cause she did a great job of it. I will add that I had a great time with my extended family--talking philosophy for two hoursTuesday night with my grandmother, aunt Amelia, and Uncles Owen and Donald; cooking with the aunts; blowing up Sobe bombs in the desert with my ...
Conducted a 2-hour-long negotiation today that was the hardest so far; I was up against the president of the Alternative Dispute Reconciliation Society (aka Negotiation Goddess) and we had explicit instructions to be as aggressive as we could. Which was, uh, aggressive. XDD But we managed to keep from being vicious (although I can think of a few more adjectives that apply) and at the end, when I ...
First of all, kilerkki posted a really good entry this morning about her reaction to the musical, Children of Eden. We thought it expressed what we believe as member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints better than we could, so we asked for permission to link to it, and she gave it to us! So check it out ! On a completely different note altogether... so we're working on ...
... discussion on reporters' privilege. Good stuff! Also, since the overwhelming majority of the poll in my last post voted for me to post future writing at painted_on_sky and only mention it here on kilerkki , if you have any free time in the next few days which you are dying to fill with the first chapter of an unfinished work, check out the first chapter of The Demon Wars ...
Good morning! I've been writing with kilerkki . It's pretty muchawesome. In other news, Guilt is something I'm bad about. I'll accept guilt for all sorts of things. Usually, I'm guilting myself -- no help needed. In fact, when other people try to guilt me I generally just get pissed, but that's because I can totally guilt myself without any help. So, a whole section on guilt? ...
There are a lot of pictures to post, and if I take the time to writeclever captions for all of them as well as doing all the coding, I will never get this done. So hopefully you can content yourself with less words, more photos. To start off, The Haircut. Some of these pictures were taken by helpful sisters or roommates; sometimes they were taken in a mirror because I couldn't manage another ...
... A COMMA IN IT, PEOPLE. 8. I have that itchy brain feeling that happens before I get nightmares. As I'm back to identifying with Tsume for god-knows-what-reason, I'm getting her nightmares. As kilerkki and I seem unable to get our schedulestogether to write, I'm beginning to think TSUME'S ISSUES WILL NEVER BE RESOLVED, AND I WILL HAVE NIGHTMARES FOREVER. Or something like that. Uh, at ...
So the Law School Singles Society's Pumpkin Palooza involves an epic bake-off, because we are of course cut-throat competitive over-achievers. The organizer of the bake-off is making a Pumpkin-Clove Pound Cake with Vanilla-Mace Italian Meringue Buttercream. And because I am also ridiculously competitive (...in some areas, okay), I decided to try and one-up her. Probably will not happen, but it ...
I am kind of confounded by how I can manage over 100 reviews on a fairly pointless character exploration fanfic , and yet can't scrape up more than a couple of friends who are willing to read my original writing and tell me what they think. Confounded and saddened (although I am very grateful for those few friends). I always knew fandom was a fickle beast... Well, serves me right for wasting a...
