Anxiety

Still waiting. Really really terrified of a similar response as last time. I still remember that phone call all too vividly. It probably only lasted 5 minutes or less, but it felt like an awful eternity – listening as all my hopes dashed in a matter of seconds. I came so very close, only to have it all yanked away in the end. It took everything I had to keep my voice even despite the large lump that was rising in my throat.

Please please I don’t want to feel that way again.

I really really really want this. I don’t think I’ve wanted something this badly in my life.

It’s officially FALL.

That’s right, the leaves are officially turning color RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY EYES. *GASPS* Spring and Fall are without a doubt the best times St. Louis (prob. in most places, actually). For a few precious months, we get weather that’s not scorchingly hot or painfully cold. Plus, the red and orange leaves are so pretty 😀

On another note, I have officially started outlining for Commercial Law. No, I’m not crazy about this class, as much as I love it. I think this is just like physics back in HS. It’s challenging and the teacher gives out a lot of work, periodically – basically it’s impossible to slack off in the class. Today will be the first (of four) review sessions. In preparation, I’m organizing/typing up all my notes in preparation. So it’s not officially outlining, per se., but it’s close enough, no?

Also, I kinda love the new schedule now that I have officially dropped bankruptcy. No more 7:30am classes, or classes on wednesdays and fridays. Basically, I come to school 2.5 days a week (monday ends at noon). Can i keep this schedule for the rest of my life (or at least law school)???

Weekend course: finance for dummies

Typically the mere thought of waking up on a saturday morning for class would appalling. And the fact that the said class wouldn’t end until 5pm would be even more mortifying. But the combination of interesting and relevant topics with a professor who has the perfect sense of humour (impeccable mix of snarkiness + ridiculous stories + general un-PCness) makes this rather…enjoyable.

Normally I have problems staying awake in any class immediately following lunch, except now I feel more awake than I did before lunch. I’m loving this 🙂

P.S. I’ve decided that I will take that Game Theory seminar offered by this professor, one way or another.
