and you thought spider solitaire was cool

the girl who sits next to me in contracts must be a genius or something. she plays all these crazy online games throughout the entire class, and still coherently answers questions from the professor (questions that i don't even get when paying attention), all the while creating color-coded case briefs on Word.

i once watched her play a game where cartoon mosquitos were drifting towards what appeared to be a piece of skin and she had to use her mouse to kill them before they landed on the skin, or else they would suck on it.

i don't even know how to comment on this. so i won't.
(yes, another poor substitute for creative blogging)

i have a good excuse

ok, so i haven't posted in almost a month (not like anyone ever reads this except for me) but i have a great excuse.

you ready?

i had my first law school exam AND my bacheorlette party in vegas AND i found an apartment on this island full of insane people that we call a city.

so there.

now that we have that out of the way, i can move on to my true reason for not posting which is that i have nothing interesting to write about. i have been sucked dry of the minimal creative juices that i once had.

i think some of my creative brain cells moved to the other, non-creative side of my brain to study for my exam and stayed there. some other ones were destroyed by being in vegas for 48 hours (oops, correction, i meant 36 hours thanks to a missed connecting flight &%**%%@@*!!). and the last few remaining ones were so angry at the manhattan real estate market that they flew back to california.

and so i go back to my old staple of posting a list instead of really writing anything --

number of law school exams i have sat for: 1

number of hours this exam was: 4

number of pages i typed for the exam: 6 single-spaced, times new roman 12 font

number of times per week that i have a class before 9am starting next week: 4

number of my professors who have a blog (that i know about): 1, my property professor who focuses on cyberlaw. kinda cool, huh?

my new favorite game in vegas: pai-gow poker

number of times i had to wear a veil covered with plastic penises in vegas: zero (thank god for good friends)

number of times guys asked what nationality we were in vegas: 15

number of times this was a successful pick-up line: zero

number of times i will ever take a connecting flight to vegas again: NEVER

number of days i have before moving: 11

number of boxes that i have packed: zero

how confused my dog will be after we move to our new place: very
