Vacation Continues...

...but it's terribly difficult to ever completely escape law school.

The Office of Academic & Student Affairs published the lottery list for classes with limited enrollment. I got into every class for which I registered but one. So, it looks like my courselist for the fall is: Professional Responsibility, Section 1983 Litigation, International Criminal Law, and Trusts & Estates.

I'm psyched. We've already received our first day assignments for Section 1983 Lit., and I have a great deal to read and prepare for my first week as a TA in the Research & Writing class.

Plus, the work on the Journal is ever-sharpening and piling on. It's going to be a busy quarter as we work toward publication.

At the beach, while getting sunburned and going for sweltering, wonderful and exhausting runs, I've been spending the remainder reading and grilling. I finished "An Unbearable Lightness of Being," by Milan Kundera, and am near the end of "Slipping into Darkness," a crime/mystery novel, by Peter Blauner. Having plowed through the Harry Potter Series while on co-op, this quarter may mark my most well-read since before law school.
