I'm in for a conlaw csws pact because I'm fucking nervous as shit about that shit.

Chemerinskygod is your friend.

Yea but it's too long to read by myself. I need an e-club to tell me which pages to read and when

I look up assigned cases in the index. I won't be reading it from cover to cover either, because my prof's class isn't that comprehensive.

When I came to pick up a sealed recommendation for a fellowship app from my Ks professor, he remarked that I am an outstanding student and had the 4th highest score in my section. He also said that if BC gave out A+'s he would have given me one--damn BC for not giving A+'s, lol! Still stoked about the A in that class, tho.

I get that you are a good student and are proud of yourself but your comments are getting a little braggy.

Sorry. To make up for it, I did bomb Property and get medianpwned in Torts, lol.

I . . . actually got a date? My aspieness is going to make me epic fail on it isn't it?

Aww, congrats Bronck! Hope the lucky lad/lady won't present too much of a distraction from CSWS/GRINDing.

Hah! I thought it went solid, despite some probably noob mistakes, but who knows. I guess I'll find out whether it's going anywhere soon enough . . .

Was this a lawcest date? Upperclassmen warn strongly against romantic entanglements with section-mates, thought I do have a couple of crushes in my section in spite of that.

It was. I'm not too worried about lawcest though. I'm a pessimist, but *knock on wood* lol.

Seeing my hometown crush over break. He totally understands the CSWS lifestyle, so he's all right with it being just a couple hours on one day. Hope it transforms into something real this summer.

Rootin for ya. Need more in life than just law law law

Summer search over. Back to work.

Lucky. I want a fucking job

Don't profs at Columbia hire 1Ls as paid RAs? Folks here have done that, and it hasn't presented a problem for them (as far as I know) at OCI.

I believe they do. I'll probably look into that shortly.

Also, have u hit up PSJD and Idealist? It's (probably) too late for large firms and federal judges, but not at all for direct legal services stuff. Some gov gigs listed on the U of Arizona Honors Handbook have March/April deadlines. http://www.law.arizona.edu/career/honorshandbook.cfm
Hang in there!

Good suggestions! I've bookmarked PSJD but haven't had a chance to look at it much yet, it seems like a great resource.

Sectioncest is the WORST.

Hate seeing my ex every day.

[BlueLotus]

Yikes. Did you become a couple fall semester, Nova?

Yeah, dated basically the entire semester. It was a very confortable situation, but I think we moved too fast. By finals we were together almost 24/7 either studying or trying to get our minds off studying.

But yeah, it sucks now. At least I still have law.

In 1829, Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story stated: "The law is a jealous mistress and requires a long and constant courtship. It is not to be won by trifling favors, but by lavish homage."

LOL what a great quote.

Must share it with people IRL.
