School

Tonight in my Tort class, I got to thinking about maybe I might want to go to law school. I enjoy my law class a lot. I am currently studing to have an associte in Paralegel Studies. After I gradurate, should I works as a Paralegel for awhile and see if I like the field. My other optinon is to go to law school right after I gradurate after school. Atleast, I have a another year or so to think of it.

Birthday Post

First off, Thank you so much to everyone who wished me a Happy Birthday. It really meant a lot to me. It was a pretty easy going day. The highlights where getting my car back from the auto shop and hanging out with Lica. I don't get my gift from my brother until tomorrow. I will receive my parents gift next week.
Here the Birthday Cake (My Dad's birthday is on Friday):
On the School front: I passed my test from Saturday with a perfect score 160/150 (10 bonus points)

TV: Ok, Southpark was so funny tonight. Butter becomes a pimp. I really want some sound bytes of Pimp Butters for my phone. That was so funny.

I have an idea for a poll. I have a sock monkey with no name. Havn't named it at all. Here the deal. I will let everyone vote on a name for him. Please put any ideas in the comment area, then after a few days, I set a poll up with the sugguestions.

School, School, School

I should have written :Homework,Homework, and more homework.

I am half way done with all my homework for the upcoming week. Took my test this morning. I think I did good. Right now, I am trying to find two tort court cases to do a court brief on. The first one I picked was the infamous McDonald's coffee case. I havn't picked a second one yet. I found one, Tarasoff v. Regents of the University of California, but the case brief is about 38 pages long. Depends on if I want to sort though all that. My paper is not due until the end of November but I might want to get a head start.

Any ideas for a good tort law case?

Random Thoughts 10/9 edition

* I finally gave in and started to play Farmville on Facebook. Here is my ghetto farm right now:

It pretty neat so far. Slowly growing my crops.

* Tomorrow, I have my first test of the semester. It is for Interviewing and Investigation. Kinda nervous. Wish me luck. Other than my test. Probably work on homework this weekend. Would love to go see a movie this weekend. Anyone game?

*SGU was ok. Watched all three hours. It seems like they are trying to be a poor man's version of BSG.

Personality Test

I had to take this personality test for my sociology class. I have to say, I agree with my results:

• You have a great need for other people to like and admire you.
• You have a great deal of unused capacity which you have not turned to your advantage.
• Disciplined and self-controlled outside, you tend to be worrisome and insecure inside.
• You prefer a certain amount of change and variety and become dissatisfied when hemmed in by restrictions and limitations.
• You pride yourself as an independent thinker and do not accept others statements without satisfactory proof.
• You have a tendency to be critical of yourself.
• At times you have serious doubts as to whether you have made the right decision or done the right thing.
• At times you are extroverted, sociable, while at other times you are introverted, wary, reserved.
• While you have some personality weaknesses, you are generally able to compensate for them.
  

Anyone willing to post their results? lol

Research Paper Update

I have my last class tomorrow. I have to take my finale in Goverment and Polictic class. I am a tab bit nervous but I shouldnt let my nerves bother me. Finshed my research paper for Composition. over the weekend. I got my grade wich was 180/200. Overall, I made 91% A in the class. I was about to bust into tears. I thought I would have made a B in there. I am still in shook though.
Classes will not start back for me until the end of the month. I signed up for: Intro to Socilocloy, Desktop Applications, Tort Law, and Interview/Investagions. Hopefully, the legal classes will have enough students to keep the class going. I do have one back up class picked just in case one gets cancelled: Spanish I. Cross my fingers I get to take all the classes I picked.

Disco Dancing with the Rapist

Well, I have some progress with my research paper. I have the bare bones fact inserted in my paper. Today is finishing it up and tomorrow I will print it out. Right now , my main worry is that I have my sources cited correctly in the paper. It looks correct so far. I have all Sunday and during the day tomorrow. Cross your fingers for me.

My brother had some good news about the concert. Manic Street Preacher has put Tsunami back on their set list. It is one of my favoirte songs.

Size 7

"Wow, how much weight have you lost?"

I been getting that remark everyday now. I have lost quite a bit of weight since last summer. It wasnt on purpose though. This past year, I been though some much hell that it had affected my weight. When I am stressed, I dont eat as much. I am not sure how much weight I have lost. My guess is about 30 to 50 pounds. It comes down to stress. I had my good days and bad days.
What got me thinking about my weight was shopping today. I had to buy some jeans that fit. I found that I fit into a size 7. The last time I was a size 7 was high school. Last year, I was around a size 15 to 14. Size 7 made me stop and think about the weight loss. I desided if I get down to a size 5 then I will try to get some help about all the weight I have lost. Size 5 will be the cut off line.
I am ready for this week to be over. The next two days will be trying to get my research paper down. Nevous as hell though. I am so worry about messing up. This paper is a big part of my grade. Tomorrow, all I will do is set in my chair and finish it up.
I am going on a trip in the first part of October. My brother got ticket to his favorite band, Manic Street Preachers. It will be in Chicago. Sorta nervous but excited though. A road trip should be fun.

Letting Go Of My Fears

I discovered that I have two fears that is holding me back at school. The first fear is failure. I am scared of failing at everything I do. I had my Lititgation test yesterday. I started to freak out when I got my test. I blacked out everything that I had learn. I felt like crap taking the test. I took the test feeling defeated. I need to learn that I will not always fail at everything I touch. It is a hard feeling to shake.

My second fear is writing. I get overwelm by writing. I get so scared because I feel I can not write. I know my grammer isn't the best. I need to step back and get over this fear. I need to try to harder to make sure my writing is better.

School Update

Just want to update everyone on school. This semester I am taking two clases: Legal Writing and Litigation. I like both of my classes. I am so picky about my writing. I am always second guesses myself in my writing. Litigation is interesting. The whold court sysytem is neat. I am thinking about taking a fuller load this summer. Maybe get some of my basic out of the way.

Back to School

Starting next week, I will be a college student. I finally desided to do something. For the last year, I been debating back and forth about either going to beauty school or college. I wouldn't mind doing hair but the only downside is that there is a lot of beautitans in this town. Plus, I wasnt sure if I would like it or not. I hate to mess up someones hair. I finally signed up for some class this spring semester. I am either going for a business or paralegal degree. I have a class on litigation. My other class was legal writing but the school cancelled it due to not enough people signing up. The school is supposed to call me with my new class.

I did recieve a blessing today. I sign up for school and student aid pretty late. I havn't received any word on my aid or loans. Today, I had to pick up my books. I barely had the money for the books. I thought to ask up front desk about the status of everything. Turns out I did get some aid and got a voucher for my books. I was so shock and happy. Right now, I just have to find out my other class and I will be set.
