frustrated.

its been a while since I've posted anything personal ... I've TOTALLY taken advantage of this as my own private soapbox to rant and rave about the absurdities of the world, but I think that time has come to pass.

School has been good ... at least relatively speaking. There was a period of about three weeks that it just sucked. One week it was just school work, and random stuff that got me down, and the next week was the really tough one, and last week ... just when things started to go ok, my computer died on me. Well, not quite - but it did almost take off in class. 9am, Con Law - and suddenly my computer starts to buzz, and then the fan just begins to roar. It was so loud that people on the other side of the room looked up and were like, "what the ...?" Thankfully I was able to ship it off to HP for them to fix ... and WOW - they sent it back within the week. It was pretty dang awesome. So now it kinda hums, but its a comforting kinda hum ... like - "don't worry ... as much as you flip you, I'm not gonna flip out on you again. Maybe."

The weekend was very relaxing, oddly enough because I'm not quite up w/the reading and I've got monster-legal-writing-project breathing down my neck. But it was nice ... went over to Jeff and Allison's for game night ... which ROCKED! A totally low key event, but it was so nice to just chill with some cool people. I must say, I'm really lucky that I've got some fun, and somewhat normal (as normal as law students can get I suppose!) people to hang out with - I've heard horror stories from the other sections. The rest of the weekend was nothing really to write about, except I got to talk to a couple of my favorite people for significant amounts of time ... and catch up with them.

So, if all is going so well ... whats the frustration? Well, its this brief. Its not due until March 18, but its SO far from being anything worth submitting that I'm definately worried. A draft is due tomorrow, and I spent about 4 hours at the Carnegie just trying to figure out how I'm supposed to structure this thing ... everytime I looked at it, I changed something. Its really frustrating to not know what you're doing ... I just wish that I could figure out how to visualize this entire thing ... like a jigsaw puzzle. Thats all it is really ... but I've always had issues w/jigsaws. To add to it, I'm still trying to secure summer employment ... for someoene who dislikes cold calling as much as I do, I've been getting a heck of a lot of practice. WHHHHHEWWWWIE!

Anyhoo - enough of this journal like entry ... but I just thought I'd bring the blog back a little ... um, back to ME! hehe. It is all about me! oooh yeah.

Pointless? Yes, but isnt that what its all about?

Btw, shout out to Amina, Mariam and Abdul Hadi ... and their new arrival, Ibrahim! Mabrook!
